The shaking of the camera depicted a sense of unease because the camera could match what I was going through in the scene. 

Around 8 minutes into the film, Greenwood is waiting at a bus stop on one side of the bench where it is dark with no lights when a woman is sitting on the other side of the bench under a light. A man insults the woman sitting at the bus stop and Greenwood attempts to end their confrontation but gets hit in the nose.  I am focusing in the beginning scene of the full shot where Greenwood and the woman are sitting at the bus stop. The lighting effect of the full shot has the light favoring one side of the bus stop which happens to be where the woman is sitting with the other side being dark and shady which is where Greenwood is sitting. The editors manipulated the lighting and had the right side of the bus stop lit up more and a map on the wall to make it modern, while the left side was dark with no wall. This full shot of the two sitting at the bus stop shows how Greenwood treats himself in society, he sticks to the shadows because he can't talk to people which is what he did most

" Top Gun: Maverick brings  Tom Cruise's Movie Stardom Full Circle" by Todd Gilchrist who praises the new movie Top Gun: Maverick. Gilchrist acknowledges the sequel to the original as "an extraordinary film that evokes the iconography of its 1986 predecessor." He also acknowledges the depiction of what most people think of the military which is serious and hard-working but Top Gun: Maverick shows the "unambiguously celebratory" in the military. Gilchrist then goes on explaining about how he was amazed about how the airplane-cockpit filming was cast. In the original Top Gun (1986), the aerial combat scenes were filmed in a studio cockpit with aerial footage on the background, but in Top Gun: Maverick, the cast was sent in the sky to film with professionals driving the aircraft.      In another review titled " Top Gun: Maverick' Review : Action Soars While Creativity Takes a Nosedive" by John Anderson, he believes that there is a lack of cr
