After 36 years, Tom Cruise returns in one of his most iconic rolls in an effort to satiate our need for speed. Straight to the point. It’s hard enough to get a hit film, putting together a sequel that equals let alone surpasses the original is harder still. Cruise and company (Jerry Bruckheimer produces again but also credits former partner Don Simpson who died in 1996) have done precisely that in Top Gun: Maverick.
Want nostalgia? Got it!
Well timed humor? Check!
Amazing practical visual effects? Double check! The submersive cockpit camera is over the top. Tossing aside the green screen pays major dividends.
Top Gun: Maverick is a perfect blending of the original, from music, characters, and various call back/parallels and the next generation of Naval aviators. From beginning to end this film is a heart pumping thrill ride that keeps you on the edge of your seat combined with a high stakes storyline filled with surprisingly emotional depth, heart, and relevance.
Incredible direction, stellar pacing, fantastic acting, extraordinary cinematography and sound, TGM is a 2-hour 11-minute triumph. Top Gun: Maverick has enough heart and soul for two films and satisfies in EVERY possible aspect. So, dust off your Ray Ban Aviators, hit the highway to the danger zone and check out Top Gun: Maverick on the big screen the way it’s intended. You won’t be disappointed.
Top Gun: Maverick is a full throttle mach10 film experience not to be missed.
