Rating Summary
Top Gun: Maverick is a slick and visually masterful piece of popcorn-munching fun. Sure, it's formulaic as h3!!, but who cares? There's so much high-octane charisma and jet fuel being burned on screen that it doesn't matter. Tom Cruise, et al. do what no one in Hollywood has been able to do for years. They made a movie instead of a soapbox speech or a computer-generated video game cut screen posing as a movie.
Top Gun: Maverick was nearly 40 years in the making, but Tom Cruise is back and just as Mavericky as ever. Pro Tip: blast Kenny Loggins while reading the rest of this review.

Yeah sorry bud. This movie is super woke. Sure there are top gun fenale pilots but they are only there because the navy wanted to diversify the pilots. Do some research. Woke junk
