@@jeanp.5929 Exactly what I was thinking! Avatar HFR completely blew me away in the theatre, so I see that as a serious contender, should it be released on 4K disc.
For me it was the three original Star Wars films in theaters as a child. And the 90s, when 5 groundbreaking films would release each month sometimes. Maverick is a very good film, but since the slow death of theaters which began several years ago, even a “very good” film feels legendary, relatively speaking.
I got the steelbook yesterday. I spent like 5 hours going from store to store looking for it. But they were all out of stock. I finally managed to find one at the 7th store I went to. It was also the last one on the shelf
Waiting for this release reminds me of the good old days when every movie took months before you got a VHS release. It was a special day when you got to pick up your own copy. I felt that same feeling getting my 4k copy of this movie.
I loved this in IMAX so much! But I will have to say, I still considered The Batman was still my favorite IMAX experience haha. That batmobile scene is legendary!!
I saw it in 70mm IMAX. It was incredible and, to me, better than the original movie. The fact that there was very little CGI used and that the cast was riding in the backseat of F/A-18 Super Hornets pulling some serious G-forces and operating the six IMAX cameras mounted on the display panel is beyond impressive. l picked up the 4K release today and try to watch it in the next few days.
There is a ton of CGI in the movie, it's just very well done and mostly used as enhancement of the real thing. It looks so good because the artists had a good frame of reference. Check out C. W. Lemoine's channel, he interviewed one of the artists and they went through multiple scenes even he (being a real fighter jet pilot) thought are real.
CGI is in everything. The marketing strategy never said they did not use computer generated effects, just that the actors were in the planes. They didn't say the actors actually flew and controlled the planes, but just that they rode and acted in the air. Somehow, the commoners interpret that as "NO CGI! Actors flying the planes!"
My dad saw the original with my uncle in a theatre filled with navy men cause there was a base nearby. Said it was one of his favorite theatre experiences. Fast forward 36 years later and I saw Maverick in theaters with him and yet again he said it was one of his favorite theatre experiences. Our only regret is not seeing it in IMAX cause holy crap, this movie was made to be seen on the big screen
I, too, missed experiencing it in IMAX, but was able to go EMAX (Emagine Theater's version -- a little smaller, but had Dolby Atmos!). I also agree, big screen was a must (I went 4x).
@@Mr04041957 i wih our 4dx regal had atmos, the sound was kinda low and not to powerful. but thats okay, after watching it on 4k blu ray. the atmos sounded incredible on a5.1.4 system would watch it again realy soon :D never heard of emax till when you posted ur coment. lol
picking it up later on today! so stoked to watch it again. saw it twice in an IMAX theater and it was the best experience i’ve had since lockdown ended.
Great review... if Tom Cruise can revive interest in the movie theater experience, he can do the same with physical media. This is the perfect title to showcase the format's capabilities regardless of thoughts on the film... so happy to hear it's lived up to the hype as you say.
I pre-ordered the 4k double feature set of both movies. I got it yesterday. I'm so happy about the quality! I haven't watched the original movie 4k disc yet, but if it' anything like the effort they put into the Maverick, then I'm sure it won't disappoint.
As soon as I saw this movie in theatres, I pre-ordered the 4K. The one I ordered is an original Top Gun and Maverick 4K combo, hopefully it’ll show up soon! Stoked to hear that it’ll be worth the wait!
Great review! I'm usually blown away more by picture than the sound, but this was the rare instances where the sound was the major noticing point for me. Sure the picture is amazing but experiencing the opening scene withscore and even supporting sounds, the bass blew me away, I had just watched the original Top Gun so maybe that is why the comparison seemed fresh. Unfortunately I'm only 19 minutes in so far as I have short windows with work and family where I can watch movies with decent volumes, but I'm looking foward to continuing soon!
Grabbed the steel book yesterday from Best Buy. My store only had 3 steel book copies which they had to pull from the back, and only a dozen or so regular blu-ray and 4k's. When I asked an employee, she didn't even know what Top Gun or a steel book was. She looked at me like I was a geezer looking for an 8-track. We are defiantly not going to have physical media in stores much longer. Totally agree on the quality of the disc. Was blown away by the quality on my LG OLED and new Panasonic DP-UB820.
That’s sad. Best Buy of all places should know what a 4k Blu-ray is. They have huge Magnolia home theater setups in their stores, but then stop selling physical media? It’s ridiculous. I’m not spending thousands on my system to stream Netflix. lol
Got my copy yesterday....such a well put together sequel and think it even surpasses the original film and that's not an easy ride. All I need now is a decent Dolby Atmos system to go with my 75" Samsung OLED TV!
Saw this in the cinema and on streaming. Everything you've said is accurate. 4k disc is amazing! The only other recent disc I'd put up there with it on audio and video quality alone is Ambulance.
I bought it on your review. I purchased the digital off iTunes previously but you convinced me to buy again. I do it from time to time. LG G2 77”, 5.1.4 sound system.
Fun fact about the lenticular cover on the Walmart steelbook: it's a magnet! Which is really cool and makes total sense for alternate cover art for steelbooks. It is currently on my refrigerator.
I saw this at the cinema and it blew me away. The while cinema shook during the flight scenes. I’ve also watched it about 20 times on digital, but I cannot wait to get my physical copy. Great review as always.
One of the best IMAX experiences I’ve had. Up there with TDK, TDKR, Interstellar, and Ghost Protocol even tho it was IMAX digital rather than IMAX film. Couldn’t wait for the 4K release and held out on digital even with the delayed physical release. Similar to Nolan’s 4K releases, the 4K release of Top Gun Maverick is absolutely spectacular. Saw it last night and was in awe. An absolute must have jaw dropper. Completely agree with this release being one of the best ever.
This is THE standard in audio and visual. I dont see any films beating this anytime soon especially the audio. Be careful with your speaker settings if you dont have subs. This has a lot of punching low frequencies that are meant to be crossed over to subs. Best Buy is playing this disc as a demo to show off their best AV equipment.
The sound on this disc is so crisp and clean. The LFE goes really deep, it feels like you can crank the main volume an extra 5-10db than normal and it'll still sound clean.
Saw it in an iMAX theater, then preordered the 4k but couldn't wait so I bought the 4k digital streaming to tide me over until the hard copy got here lol. Received it yesterday and it does look amazing. My only wish is that it could have been in HDR10+ too. It's Dolby Vision and HDR10, but not HDR10+. But somehow, I'll survive 😁
If you have the digital 4k copy set up a movies anywhere account. Then if you watch it on Amazon video it'll most likely play in HDR 10 plus. I do this for my Samsung TV and I was pleasantly surprised how many of my 4k digitals played in HDR10 +.
Even the regular 2K Blu-ray looks and sounds fantastic when upconverted to 4K via the player. In brightly lit scenes, you can see every pore in everybody's face, especially the black dude who was the ground tech crew there at the end on the carrier. I was amazed at the detail on that shot.
It was actually originally scheduled for a summer 2019 release but was then pushed back to fall 2019. Then it got pushed back to may 2020 but of course because of the pandemic it was delayed even further. I had read that they were thinking about releasing it direct to streaming and skipping a theatrical release because of the delays, but Tom Cruise insisted that it be released in theaters as he wanted people to see it in all its IMAX glory.
Christopher Nolan wanted the same for Tenet as well as the new James Bond. Unfortunately they didn't wait quite long enough. It wasn't till Spiderman No Way Home and The Batman that people really started heading back to the movies. Top Gun definitely did something special.
Seeing this in IMAX was probably the #2 best film experience ive ever had. (#1 is Jurassic Park back in 1993 for me). Wish theyd do a limited run in IMAX again.
Incredible on 4K UHD - amazing. For me the video was 9.5/10, audio was an 8.5/10. The video was almost flawless, I would have given it a 10/10 but I did catch just a few seconds of softness in a couple scenes. It's probably 99.5% razor sharp though. I agree that the audio was very well balanced but I thought it was missing a touch of bass impact. From what I've seen the Atmos effects are almost 100% static with no real panning. I don't have Atmos currently so I can't really comment much on it, just from what I've seen from other reviews with software monitor height activity. I imagine that would be a bit of a negative. Overall I agree that this is one of the best 4K discs available.
Picked up the movie this past Sat, all I can say is wow!!! Was blown away withvthr story, thr quality as 8m not running a 4k projector I settled with the blu-ray version
I picked up this movie, the steelbook version, yesterday and watched it. agree that this is the best 4K movie I have watched with my home theater so far Tom Curise = quality
I got the Walmart steelbook edition 3 days early (somehow), so I got to enjoy it over the weekend and LOVE this 4K! Couldn't agree w/ you more that movies like this, Ambulance, Dune, etc. are the reasons you need to upgrade to 4K w/ Atmos capable systems. The Walmart steelbook also came w/ a pretty cool 3D magnetic cover piece you can take on or off, so I recommend that one too. Worth the $!
The one I bought was the double feature 4K+digital copy which included Top Gun and Maverick both in 4K in 1 case from Amazon. Maverick was filmed in 6K by the way.
Can't wait to get mine. I'm in for the 2 pack as I haven't upgraded the OG yet. I knew this movie would get me to upgrade. Already did the player. Soon going from 5.1 to 7.1. Maybe upgrade sub soon or wait til new receiver. TV is older 4k but still looks good. When I saw this in Imax, I was seriously impressed & knew it cost me $6k easily down the road.
10/10 for picture quality, so much detail! 7/10 for audio, the Atmos was very substandard, LFE channel lacking, 3d objects almost non existent. 10/10 for center channel dialogue, absolutely clear!
I've never seen either of these movies and I tried getting the first for $8 on black Friday but couldn't get it fast enough before it sold out so I just paid the $40 for the 4k 2 pack. Can't wait for it to come and get time to watch these movies
Just watched the 4k disc a couple of days ago on my 4k TV, Atmos setup. This review is absolutely spot on. Absolutely phenomenal image and sound combined with a great film.
Saw this twice in IMAX. Great film! Bought my 4K Steelbook. Outstanding picture and sound as expected. IMAX scenes are out of this world! Top bluray 4K of the year!
I'm not sure if it's featured but my standard Blu-ray played on my 4k player plays this movie in HDR. Very cool never had a standard Blu-ray play in HDR before this title
The picture is so good that when I watched it this past weekend on a friends 1080, probably 6 year old Samsung set, it looked like a pristine 4k image. Can't wait to pop this into my OLED.
Let’s get this channel to 100k subs! SMASH THAT BUTTON! 😂
Would you say the visuals are better than Gemini Man.
FYI the steelbook is paired with a blu ray!
@@jeanp.5929 Exactly what I was thinking! Avatar HFR completely blew me away in the theatre, so I see that as a serious contender, should it be released on 4K disc.
Almost there, you’re doing great work, keep it up! Happy to see your success!
If haven't reviewed it yet? Bullet Train!! Amazing colors, really really good movie and funny.
One of the best experiences I've ever had in a movie theater. Looking forward to getting this on 4k Disk
For me it was the three original Star Wars films in theaters as a child. And the 90s, when 5 groundbreaking films would release each month sometimes.
Maverick is a very good film, but since the slow death of theaters which began several years ago, even a “very good” film feels legendary, relatively speaking.
Seeing this in Dolby Cinema was a real treat.
@@LeonSKennedy7777 Maverick is legendary
Watched this last night. By far the best UHD I've ever viewed. The IMAX sequences were simply stunning.
I got the steelbook yesterday. I spent like 5 hours going from store to store looking for it. But they were all out of stock. I finally managed to find one at the 7th store I went to. It was also the last one on the shelf

I agree.
They should always keep this movie playing in IMAX theaters. Just have 1 showing each day. Still the best IMAX experience ever.
I loved this in IMAX so much! But I will have to say, I still considered The Batman was still my favorite IMAX experience haha. That batmobile scene is legendary!!
@@ANDRE1mang I saw The Batman in Dolby and that batmobile scene shook the theater like crazy.
Dune as well
@@pretentiouscameron7815 Nice!! I bet it that was fricken epic. That batmobile screech just sent shivers down my spine the first time I heard it.
I love that we got the 4k disc we were hoping for with this one. Instant buy for me.
OMG you didn't see this in theaters!?
The variety of releases is staggering. Standard 4k, Steelbook, bundle 4k, bundle 4k steelbook collectors edition. They really went all out.
Same here, i bought most of them, lol.
Which one do you recommend?

What's in the top 3 or 5 4k discs?
Can't wait to picked it up, saw it this summer and it had a wonderful breathtaking experience! Excellent to hear how amazing the 4K disc is!
Saw it in theaters twice. Bought the digital edition when it dropped and i purchased the 4K disc. Fantastic film!
My copy of top gun maverick is arriving in a couple of days on 4k uhd. The movie is a Masterpiece. I love it!
Great review Jeff, I agree 100%. Physical Media feels so good right now. This is a win for all of us.

Almost $1.5 bil actually, pre-ordered the steel book months ago... can't wait to see it.

This title is astounding. I can’t believe we can now get this quality at home.

I saw it in 4 different formats. Regular, imax, screen x and my fav 4dx.
4dx was the best for me
Hey Jeff...what other 4K movie(s) in terms of class would you put with Top Gun: Maverick?
Dune (2021), blade runner 2049, the Revenant.
So looking forward to getting this!
Just got the steelbook today. Can't wait to watch it for the first time! In 4k no less. Though I heard it was amazing in the theater.
Put it this way, I felt a bit travel sick watching it. Unbelievable cinematography.

Had my steelbook yesterday here in the UK. Blu ray included.....
Too bad you missed it in theaters, especially IMAX - The most stunning and entertaining movie I've seen in 20 years.
It's still in the theatre in my town here in Finland. Think I'll finally go watch it saturday.
I picked up this movie, the steelbook version, yesterday and watched it. agree that this is the best 4K movie I have watched with my home theater so far
Tom Curise = quality
I bought a brand new 4K blu ray player, and a 4K Hdmi cable just so I could watch this movie. Worth every penny.
I got the Walmart steelbook edition 3 days early (somehow), so I got to enjoy it over the weekend and LOVE this 4K! Couldn't agree w/ you more that movies like this, Ambulance, Dune, etc. are the reasons you need to upgrade to 4K w/ Atmos capable systems.

Picture outstanding but the atmos sound just blew me away, need atmos for this alone!
Can't wait to get mine. I'm in for the 2 pack as I haven't upgraded the OG yet. I knew this movie would get me to upgrade. Already did the player. Soon going from 5.1 to 7.1. Maybe upgrade sub soon or wait til new receiver. TV is older 4k but still looks good. When I saw this in Imax, I was seriously impressed & knew it cost me $6k easily down the road.
It looks BETTER than the theatre. But most 4ks do to me.
10/10 for picture quality, so much detail!
7/10 for audio, the Atmos was very substandard, LFE channel lacking, 3d objects almost non existent.
10/10 for center channel dialogue, absolutely clear!
Thanks for the review. I just received my 4k steelbook. Now I’m even more excited to watch it tonight.
Just FYI, the 4K Steelbook versions of this movie DO come with a Blu-ray included.
This is easly one of the greatest action movies ever in history of cinema. Stunning.
Got the steelbook in the mail yesterday. I'll fire it up this weekend. Can't wait! Thanks for the video.
Just a quick note, if you purchased the steelbook, it contains both the 4k disc and the blu ray disc.
But if u buy the steelbook editions then u get the bluray disc with it. Didn't know if u knew that or not.
I've never seen either of these movies and I tried getting the first for $8 on black Friday but couldn't get it fast enough before it sold out so I just paid the $40 for the 4k 2 pack. Can't wait for it to come and get time to watch these movies
I got mine on Monday. I live in Australia and got the 4K and bluray steel book. It's amazing:)
Actually came in just under $1.5 Billion worldwide.
Omg I've just brought the blu ray of top gun maverick, it is sensational, the sound is Dolby Atmos and is fantastic, the pq, is absolutely fantastic

Good to hear! Been waiting to watch this. Hopefully we'll get a sale around Black Friday.
Watched my 4k steelbook the other day and hot damn this movie looks amazing. Worth every penny and the wait!
I have the 2 movie set coming today. Can't wait to watch it after work.
Saw this in IMAX at the Air and Space Museum in Virginia. Just outside the theater was a SR-71 Blackbird, what an experience it was!
Has the pleasure to watch Top Gun Maverick in IMAX, worth every penny!
The picture is so good that when I watched it this past weekend on a friends 1080, probably 6 year old Samsung set, it looked like a pristine 4k image. Can't wait to pop this into my OLED.
I pre-ordered this 4K! But as soon as I found out about the huge steelbook that includes the original: plus a ton of extras (dog tags, lithographs…)
Not watching this in a cinema is SERIOUSLY missing out
Tough with little kids. I’m sure it will come back to theaters again!
