Top Gun - Maverick (2022): Movie Review

                                                                                       




Jim's Review

Pete Mitchell (Tom Cruise) is back to train some new recruits for a dangerous mission.

He has to pick 6 new recruit to go a mission that require skill, patience and no fear.  Bradly Bradshaw (Miles Teller), Hangman (Glen Powell) and Phoenix (Monica Barbaro) are ready to face the intense pressure. 

Lt Tom "Iceman" Kazanzky (Val Kilmer) make an impactful appearance to keep Maverick on the straight and arrow and fight any regrets he may have.

Now for the film. It has some spectacular flying shots outside in the air and in the plance.

The is a mission that will take place that requires "two miracles to happen" and that is a much I will say.

The drama and relationships are fully developed including a cool beach scene where they are playing volleyball and Adm. Beau 'Cyclone' Simpson (Jon Hamm) show up to learn about team building.

The final act is full of fast paced action and decisions on trust and friendship come in to play.

The need for speed was in full display for your enjoyment!
