It's great right up until the moment you realize the Navy could simply have lobbed a cruise missile into that crater and achieved the same victory with no risk of pilots' lives. IRL they've hit smaller, harder-to-hit targets under far more adverse conditions. MAVERICK's whole mission was absurd.

But they lob a cruise missile into that crater. His name is Tom, he was the main character and he flew the missile in himself. Did we even watch the same movie?

Your life is great right up until you can't enjoy movies anymore

I enjoy plenty of movies. I just tend to enjoy stupidly written ones less than others.
