- čas přidán 25. 06. 2022
- After more than 30 years of service as one of the Navy's top aviators, Pete "Maverick" Mitchell is where he belongs, pushing the envelope as a courageous test pilot and dodging the advancement in rank that would ground him. Training a detachment of graduates for a special assignment, Maverick must confront the ghosts of his past and his deepest fears, culminating in a mission that demands the ultimate sacrifice from those who choose to fly it.

They even handled Val Kilmer’s cameo with class. Really well done!
Mr H wasn't a fan.
It made $1 billion dollars at the box office!!
I grew up watching the original film on VHS when I was 4-5 years old!
Its also my dad's favorite movie.
Top Gun made $360 million dollars ($798-800 million dollars today) against a $15 million dollar budget.
It took home the Oscar for Best Original Song, Take My Breath Away.
Just a question…is your dad straight?
Wonder why the og movie was so "cheap" compared to the new one.
Imho it was more PG13 than this one lol best movie I’ve ever seen. I loved the first one and couldn’t believe they outdid it. Music and all
That's nothing in today's market
This one is going to win technical oscars sound editing vfx
They did their own flying stunts in the movie, which is both awesome but insane to hear.
To see Maverick concerned about losing pilots, you see how he grew as a character from the first movie.
Indeed and Hangman was my favorite of the new age guys
Love the homage of Goose with Rooster, and the story telling, it made me cry as my father being no longer alive. Very cathartic and endearing
Also also, this was a sequel done right
Something feels like the guys behind Top Gun Maverick were taking lessons after seeing the disasters of other classic films like Jurassic Park with the World series
Makes sense. Both the Disney Star Wars films and Jurassic World films are garbage
One of the greatest legacy sequels ever, and easily my second favorite film of the year (right behind Everything Everywhere All at Once).
EEAaO was a truly imaginative and epicly cool movie. I support you, in case u needed a stranger to validate your opinion lol
I'm so happy to find this comment! I feel the same as you!
It's way better than that indie crap
@@strikerbowls791 It's better at having cool fighter jets doing cool fighter jet stuff. Beyond that, it's not better.
Without a doubt probably the best sequel I’ve ever seen, wouldn’t change a thing, nothing was shoe horned, and I grew up watching the original and wanted to be a fighter pilot, easily I wouldn’t fit so on to other things
Godfather II
Easily the best film of the year with The Northman not far behind. Both films were outstanding, but Top Gun: Maverick was just perfection. We absolutely loved it.
Bro what about Morbius!?
@@detroitbecomesurvivaltrain7813 LoL, yeah that was great too. 🤣
@@Sainte305 sold over a morbillion tickets
@@detroitbecomesurvivaltrain7813 Haha, that’s a lot of morbucks.
If you like thrillers, I would say the black phone is up there also. Such a great film and an awesome role by Ethan hawk
I saw it twice in IMAX. This will go down with the likes of The Dark Knight, Aliens, Spider Man 2, and Terminator 2 etc. As one of the best sequels ever made. Say all you want about Tom's personal life. But he'll make you want to go back the theatre again.
Hey don't forget "House 2 the second Story"...💯🤣😂💯
I forgot Iron Man 2. Easily Marvels greatest movie. Best super hero, nay, action movie ever.
At least one person will not sarcasm and pick a fight...
Apart from the movie being satisfying. Another thing is cruise somehow resumes the exact same character after decades as if he hasn't grown older. He's a hell of an actor
Spiderman 2! 😂
Tom Cruise's personal life is definitely eye brow raising but I won't deny his work ethic. The guy shows up and wants to give you the best movie experience possible. I'm sure even at times putting his own stake into the movies he makes. Probably is the last movie star.
Me and my mom went and saw this on Friday, we both loved it! We haven't been to a movie in quite awhile, I'm so glad this is what we went to see!
This movie was honestly awesome and so much fun to watch. Great breakdown as well!
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@filmcomicsexplained I somewhat disagree with your a little typical points about "oh subplots oh characters" I think this is very stereotypical approach to movie analysis that's just based around mentioning a buzzword. A movie is bad or good if it emotionally hits. Subplots do not matter. In fact subplots probably are a distraction and should be treated very carefully. "Characters" as a buzzword do not matter. The plot matters, the structure of the film matters. A film is a story. If that story is structurally sound and has correct structure (like a hero's journey we see in Rocky or a "crime and repentance" type story we see in original Top Gun) the film will succeed. Furthermore, there are no rules. There are movies that are purely successful because they did one or two things extremely great that have nothing to do with writing or other aspects of high brow movie making. Mortal Kombat is a great movie due to a great soundtrack, editing and script that knew what the movie was and didn't overload it with unnecessary dialogue, and powerful emotional characters that were unique and different. It doesn't matter that mortal kombat was low brow, and it doesn't matter that honestly mortal kombat's 2nd act and a lot of the movie were pure fodder and did not need to be there at all. This is where top gun 2 sits. it does a few things extremely well, and does the rest poorly or averagely. The plot to the top gun is kind of lacking. But it doesn't matter that the plot is kind of lacking, because the movie is so overloaded with extremely powerful moments that the plot is made irrelevant. A worse movie would've not had those moments, and we would've been subject to a very average plotline. But the powerful moment of maverick almost ending himself in the first 10 minutes because he has some kind of suicide wish and feels regret over goose. Powerful moments of Rooster/Maverick plotline and how both feel sadness over Goose who was lost. Powerful moment of Maverick almost dying a second time to protect Rooster. Powerful moment of Maverick apologizing to his dead friend for failing to protect Rooster when he's run out of ammunition in the last part of the film. If those moments were weaker, or did not exist, we would see the plot for what it was, which was a very average movie, in my opinion. Jon Hamm was not bad as the terse instructor, but he was a bit bad. If all the movie had was Hamm and Cruise they would not be able to carry the movie. Frankly maybe Cruise can't carry the movie all too well, he doesn't emote so well.
TL;DR read less "movie critic" glossaries and stop using buzzwords and actually think about which movies you actually like and actually don't like. Unless you have one "guilty pleasure" (which are not a guilty pleasure actually, if its a pleasure it cannot be guilty) film like Mortal Kombat that you are willing to admit that you like and everybody else in society is wrong on don't think you've reached the point of movie criticism where you understand movies and how they work. If I have to hear another stupid movie critic talk about "plot holes" and how they "totally ruined the movie for him" I'm going to strangle somebody. Plot holes don't ruin movies, neither do subplots. Is it a good movie or not. Easy question.
@@filmcomicsexplained Also no offense but top gun 1 and top gun 2 are not the same structurally at all (there are some similarities, there's a mission at the end, climax at the end, and lots of preparation beforehand) and are not the same movies. Top gun 1 was a story of "crime and atonement". first half TC kills goose, but in second half he makes up for it and settles his disagreement with iceman his local conflict. Top Gun 2 was very much a story of regret, remorse, atoning for past mistakes, somberness. There was no story of innocence at the start of the film, tom cruise already walked into a movie a made man, at the top of his game.
The movie critic community really needs to start stepping their game up, most of them do not understand movies and how movies work. They look at "oh look mission at end of movie = mission at end of movie in first movie ... wow must be same must be same" cmon guys, let's think more structurally about what the structure of the movie is.
Some people say: if a critic understood movies, he'd be called a screenwriter. Sometimes might make sense if you think about it. Movie criticism is very hard, as is all art criticism. Merely having an opinion you completely didnt think about and pulled out of your rear is not sufficient qualification for knowing what you are talking about. Art is about emotional analysis. It's very very difficult. Stories like hamlet, while also probably being overrated, are legitimately loved because of the degree of complexity of emotions the characters go through.
Amazing how a movie does well when it stays true to the original and isn't contaminated by modern hollywood. Hollywood needs to take note.
Proves once again that people prefer a good story over politics. Although I never finished the first movie. I'm glad it's doing well.
Story is shit and two good things about it are Iceman and unnamed enemy. Still this is GOOD movie, ESCAPIST movie with amazing production values.
Glad you enjoyed the movie, I had no attachment with the first film but I found my self getting teary eyed in scenes, show you they put heart into this masterpiece.
Totally agree!
This is one of the best legacy sequels ever made. It's up there with Mad Max: Fury Road and Blade Runner: 2049.
Everybody saying this is the way a sequel should be done. I was in Middle School when the first one came out and frankly I've always thought it was overrated but it is a good piece of 80s nostalgia. The climax of the movie Top Gun Maverick is basically their version of the Death Star run.
@Bzake The Northman was solid as well
@@AdmiralAckbar. I still need to see this one
Duuuude i thought it was hilarious that the mission was like the death star mission
@Bzake I liked, Everything Everywhere All At Once.
@@Kier4n99 however it was much more ‘down to earth’
One of the best films I've seen in awhile. I wish there were more films made like it.
The critical drinker recommended it as well
The way they captured the intensity of aerial combat while they were on mission was extraordinary, all that noise from the alarms and the missiles circling everyone at once, gnarly af.
I thought the way they captured everyone dodging missiles after the pull was the most chilling. At that point, no music, just the cacophony of pilots desperately trying to spot missiles and dodge/flare and trying not to die.
Top Gun Maverick. The best Aviation film ever made.
The trench run was pretty cool. Even turning off the targeting system. Nice.
Sam thing happened in Star Wars New Hope
@@cmasterson r\whoosshh
Given how successful this movie is, Disney should finally let Jospeh Kosinski direct the 3rd Tron movie
Only if they give him complete freedom.
This movie was something else, so bloody good
This movie is exceptionally good. The team behind this movie deserves the best possible outcomes. Yesterday when I was inside the theater watching this movie ... there were two guys from airforce and literally saw them to wipe their tears.
Forget anything else; if a movie can make cry the toughest people by profession then obviously it's something extraordinarily special.
Those scenes with Iceman and Maverick, and then with Rooster and Maverick embracing on the carrier both got me misty eyed. This film had heart. Big time.
Congrats Tom for TG:M hitting the 1 billion mark globally (and that’s without releasing in China or Russia).
Hopefully other franchises will learn from Top Gun Maverick on how to make Sequels.
Disney:............Hold my beer.
There’s not a lot of things “cinema sins” enthusiasts can say about this film.
That moron will find something to nitpick and his followers will eat it up.
I absolutely enjoyed Top Gun Maverick and I want more.
Damn, this makes me want to play Ace Combat again, it's been like 15+ years lol
So in addition to Everything Everywhere All at Once, Maverick is the only other good movie out this year so far? lmao
Don't forget The Northman
@@jonathanmulondo9206 I forgot about that one. The Uno reverse Hamlet
I also love that he doesn't even bother asking to buzz the tower anymore. He just does it now.
Well done sir. Your reviews are that of professionalism.
Thanks MOCMAN!
Hangman steals every scene he's in. Meanwhile, Miles Teller redeems his whole career in this role, he finally isn't playing "Miles Teller"
I saw this yesterday for the first time and it's one of the best movies I've seen in a very long time.
1:46* it was so good to see Iceman in the movie, despite that Val Kilmer sadly lost his voice to cancer.
Semper fi.
Well done Maverick and thanks for taking us back to the Danger Zone ❤️😎
SEMPER FI brother
00:25, speaking of, Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning, Part 1 is coming out July 17th, 2023 and Part 2 will be released in July 2024.
Let’s go!
During Tom Cruise high speed run, look over his shoulder at the leading edge of the wings, you can see the leading edge flaps change pitch. No way they would know when or how to cgi those. The f18 flight control system is automatically adjusting them as the aircraft maneuvers, just awesome to watch the engineering of that plane in action.
This is probably the only sequel in my memory that was much needed. Classic.
This review is spot on. Thank you, sir. You nailed it.
Saw this at the cinema last night, I only watched the original top gun for the first time two weeks ago and it made me feel nostalgic! I can’t imagine what it would be like for people who watched the original when it first came out. Amazing film 5/5
I think this might be a perfect film. Ive seen it 3 times this summer. Ill buy it on 4K as soon as soon as it comes out. Every seen is just phenomenal and the characters work quite well. I love this movie.
Just saw it yesterday and it was exhilarating!
Hollywood can still make good movies
Now THAT summary is the first summary I've read/heard of the movie. I'm chronically ill and desperately wish I could've experienced the need on the big screen (I'm an 80s girl)... but I'm really glad I got to hear it fully and tear up HERE with you Niyat. Thanks for your hard work on this channel, your thoughtfulness and mind. I wish you all the best as always, been shubshcribed here for a long time.
Thank you my friend, very much.
for once a sequel thats good
No way he can survive a Mach 10 ejection. The rest of the film was his dieing imagination
No way does a rogue nation with 5th gen fighters allow an enemy flotilla with an aircraft carrier within 50 miles of its coast without patrol aircraft and other ships on standby.
He also doesn't eject at Mach 10
@@nickowen7406 prove it
take my breathe away.
Mine definitely was

This Movie WHOOPED my @$$!!! I loved every second ...
A little bit Macross Plus. A little bit Star Wars. Loved the experience of seeing it in the theatre.
“Thank you, for saving my life”
“It’s what my Dad would’ve done”
Bastard Onion Ninjas….. 😭
great!!
I watched SW New Hope for the first time yesterday and man the entire plot of Maverick was when they was trying to blow the Death Star up. Even the enemy planes and turret guns and the older guy saving the new kid. Same plot point of getting a bomb or projectile to go into a hole that is 2-3 meters wide. While going through a small canyon like gap with walls on either side. I’m sorry but you can do side by side and Maverick just added more detail since this was the only thing going on.
Maverick had to go back and save the kid or the other guy he didn’t like in the beginning saving him on the last minute.
😎 awesome review.
So... The big mission is: Fly down this canyon and deliver the proton torpedoes to the air vent?
I kid. This HAS to be better than the last 3 times Star Wars did it.
This is a great movie.i really loved it.
Seeing "Ice Man" brought me 😢
This movie so rewatchable and the only movie I purchased last year.
I wonder what death-defying acts you have to pull off in order to get the nickname Phoenix
You need to die and resurrect yourself. There’s a precedent haha
@@filmcomicsexplained yea but how many people have actually gotten away it? To see the gates of heaven/hell only to be pulled back in the last minute
Best movie I've seen at the theater in years
As a huge aviation nerd. This has easily become one of my favorite movies of all time.
I going to watch this movie in a couple hours from now :D
It was such a good movie
You didn't explain anything but you did say everything that it needs to say. Thanks for the video!
I gotta see this movie again while it’s still on the big screen.
Best character intro is Bob.
That they did their own stunts is insane 💀 much respect
Best movie ever
Thanks for explaining Maverick . Seriously, what happened to the days where you can just watch and enjoy a movie with out dissecting and analzying the shit out of it.
Thanks for the video!! See you later!! Stay safe.😊
SPEEEEED!!!!
Magic.
This movie shockingly beat end game at the box office, unreal! 😊
I went last night and it was a great movie I enjoyed it, it's even better the second time around. I haven't been to a theater in 10 years and it did not disappoint
10/10 for me,had adrenaline rushes thought out the film.I wish I learned to become a fight pilot🙂
So good I saw it twice! 1st in Dolby then IMAX. I think Dolby was better because of the sound.
I don't understand how you can say 'pays homage without being repetitive', when it's beat for beat the same movie, down to the same dialogue ... :D
Rooster was not Maverick's wingman,
Maverick's wingman was Phoenix and Bob in Dagger 2
Rooster was Dagger 3 with Payback and Fanboy in Dagger 4.
Great review. I enjoyed the interactions with Penny a bit more than you did, but overall I agree with most of your points. I believe I liked Penny because I liked Maverick the character much more in this sequel than I did in 1986 when he was walking into womens' bathrooms. The story brought me to a point where I actually wanted the character to be happy. The visuals and sound were of course stunning, and the action pulse pounding in a way I've never experienced at a movie. That goes without saying, but I do agree that another scene or two with the newer pilots would have been improved the movie as a whole. However, Maverick and Rooster's story was so emotionally engaging that I can't complain. Kudos to the writers and to Cruise and Teller. You just wanted the characters to reconcile so much. You sensed their peace at the end with Rooster in the hangar, and his picture with Maverick on the sacred "Goose wall." Add in the eloquent inclusion of Kilmer showing the character's growth and this movie packs a much bigger punch than the original. In my opinion, of course.
NO ONE can eject from a Mach 10 High Altitude craft,not to mention the explosion!
You should do glass next 🙂🙂
L💓ve this movie. AWESOME sequel. One of the BEST movie's I've seen in a while. It's a movie that needs to be seen on the big screen. 👍
This is a very good movie
Is that Donut the Granite Mountain Hot Shot?
I haven't seen it yet😧, soon I will
Finally a good movie in 2022
Isn’t it just a recruitment ad? The Air Force had free screenings and it was the recruiters email
Top Gun and it's sequel are The antithesis to Disney's Star Wars trilogy and Jurassic World trilogy
LOVED this movie!, but I do feel bad for the actress who played his original love interest, tho. They didn't even approach her about the sequel &dropped her character all together since she looks "too old". That being said Connely was a good choice.
The Penny stuff is central to the theme of the movie. I think people that dismiss it's importance are missing the entire point.
‘Roudy recruits’ bro they are all the best…
Talk to me Goose. Talk to me dad. Bruh the water works.
amazing review, amazing movie, but that was chris nolan not hans zimmer... jeje
You said "He managed to eject in time"? He'd reported Mach 10 which requires high altitude! NO WAY!
watch this movie in theaters before its gone!!
FYI, Lady Gaga was also integral in helping create the score. It’s important you acknowledge her contributions in that regard as it’s rare for a woman to help score such a massive action movie.
Tom Cruise is the last true movie star, he'd do whatever it takes to make a film feel as real as possible. Can't wait for what's coming with Mission Impossible 7 and 8.
Why do I get the feeling that the narrator thinks Jennifer Connelly and Kelly McGillis are the same person...?
Top Gun: Maverick, people, is how you use nostalgia and make it work 10/10
