Miután több mint harminc évet szolgált a flotta egyik legjobb pilótájaként, Pete „Maverick” Mitchell (Tom Cruise) most a neki leginkább megfelelő helyen van: vakmerő tesztpilótaként egyre feljebb teszi a lécet, és ügyesen kitér az előléptetés elől, amely földi szolgálatra kötelezné. Amikor egy osztagnyi Top Gun növendéket olyan különleges küldetésre kell kiképeznie, amilyet élő pilóta még nem látott, Mavericket összehozza a sors a Rooster hívójelű Bradley Bradshaw hadnaggyal (Miles Teller), aki nem más, mint Maverick néhai barátjának, Nick Bradshawnak, azaz Goose-nak a fia... A bizonytalan jövővel szemezve és a múlt árnyaitól kísérve Maverick kénytelen megküzdeni legbelsőbb félelmeivel, és ez a küzdelem egy olyan küldetésben csúcsosodik ki, amely során a legnagyobb áldozatot kell meghoznia azoknak, akiket végül kiválasztanak a repülésre.

Azt már régóta tudjuk, hogy Kosinski ért a látványhoz és az érzelmekhez, és itt Bruckheimer és Cruise egy nagyon kellemes nosztalgiahullámon viszi azt. Az eredeti filmhez való kötődés szó szerint szeretetteljes, a szereplők motivációi összetettek és kiterjedtek. Az eredeti film rajongói még többet és jobbat kapnak ugyanebből, az akciójeleneteket pedig egy soha nem látott, fizikailag őszinte, Nolan-féle légi showműsorral frissítették fel. Régen volt már, hogy ennyire kapaszkodtam az IMAX székben. Azért nem adok ötödik csillagot, mert a cselekményséma a felvételek első 90%-ában biztonságosan kiszámítható volt úgy, hogy hízelegjen az eredeti film rajongóinak. A felvételek utolsó 10%-a pedig egy mesés hollywoodi látványosság. És örültem, hogy Val Kilmer karaktere is szerepelt benne.

I’d love to avoid using all the usual superlatives and come up with something truly original, but that would be a huge disservice to this film. The sequel to Top Gun is an absolute blast from start to finish. The acting is stellar across the board, featuring both the old cast and new faces. The clash between these two generations is exactly what you’d imagine, filled with nostalgia and the frustration of dealing with the disrespectful youth. And then there's Tom Cruise, who turns in a fantastic performance, not just in his role but also in the real, non-CGI action scenes. The practical effects are insane, and the last half-hour of action will leave your ears ringing the next day. If this isn’t the best sequel to an 80s classic, I don’t know what is. A well-deserved blockbuster that proves a great popcorn flick is still possible.

Tommy negotiated a 20% cut of every ticket sold, clever boy, and with himself as producer he serves us a fairytale that is beautifully filmed, but with a plot that is cliché as hell. Fighter jets have never been so sexy, in the cockpit shots you can totally see the effects of overload on the actors' faces, every extra mach – nostalgia is fine if you know how to work with it – but it all goes follows classic predictable Hollywood notes, you can guess exactly what will happen in the next scene, there is no moment of surprise, this film can only dream of some surprising twists. I was thoroughly bored for the first half, and in fact for the rest of the film. The only one who gave me the creeps was Val Kilmer, especially if you know about his health. The final praised action set-piece looked like a CGI cut scene from “Call of Duty”, the only thing missing was a gamepad in my hands. I think the current 92% here is nonsense.

Of course, the biggest attraction of the new Top Gun is not the supersonic fighter jets, but Tom Cruise in thrall to his own acting legacy. As is usually the case with legacy sequels, 90% of the plot is a copy/variation of the events of the first film (the opening and closing credits are practically identical). Whereas Cruise was a student in the first Top Gun, this time he’s an instructor (and stand-in father) who shows the novices how it (aerial manoeuvres and action movies) is supposed to be done. Thanks to his emphasis on the human element (repeating the line that what matters is the pilot’s skill, not the machine’s capabilities), he saves the day (and the action genre, which he is breathing new life into). Nevertheless, he remains a rebellious outsider who rides the (same) motorcycle, wears the (same) leather jacket, doesn’t respect authority and doesn’t read manuals. At the same time, however, he obediently serves the military-industrial complex, so his rebelliousness is only superficial. Because Maverick chose to go his own way (just as Cruise’s career comprises a separate universe that is not part of the dominant comic-book multiverse), he has not put down roots and remains a solitary figure (which is constantly emphasised by how he observes the other characters from afar rather than coexisting with them). Like the most recent Bond film, Top Gun: Maverick is packed with nostalgic looks back at the past, admitting one’s own vulnerability and coming to terms with the fact that our time on earth is limited (Cruise will soon be 60 years old). Seeking out and pondering the parallels between Maverick and Cruise by going through his filmography and reflecting on his image as a star was truthfully more entertaining to me than the numerous aerial scenes, which, with the exception of the last one, which takes place over a snow-covered landscape for the sake of variety, are interchangeable, with such rapid cuts that you can’t really enjoy them much anyway (it’s worth seeing the film in IMAX mainly for the sound). The same is true of the variation on the legendary volleyball scene. The game of (American) football on the beach is shot predominantly against the sun, chopped up with a lot of unnecessary cuts and absolutely asexual. I guiltily admit that watching it made me long for Scott's advertising-video aesthetic and shameless objectification of semi-nude male bodies. I would have found such stylisation more appropriate for a blockbuster heroic, action-melodrama that basically takes place completely outside of any real socio-political context, in a world that exists solely for the purpose of showing off aerial acrobatics and Tom Cruise’s smile. 75%

One of the movies of the year and one of the best sequels ever. Joseph Kosinski isn't a standout directors for me, Only the Brave is a big emotional hit, Tron was interesting and Oblivion was mediocre, but Top Gun: Maverick is definitely his best and most ambitious work to date. We've been waiting a long time for the film and the trailers already indicated that it was going to be one hell of a ride, but I didn't expect it to hit me and pull me in so much, as fighter jets aren't exactly the stuff I seek out in movies. Everything here is just right from the performances (Tom Cruise is excellent and really cool, Jon Hamm, Miles Teller and Glen Powell are also great), the precise technical side caught up to perfection, great dialogues, emotional scenes, decent pacing, occasional humour, great music with Lady Gaga's final song included, intense tension and great action from the training to the 30 minute finale, which is built up ad absurdum – I stopped breathing there and lost track of time. The story itself may not be sophisticated, but that doesn't matter at all. The film has heart, balls, juice and drive and won't leave anyone cold, certainly not anyone who loves movies. What Le Mans 66 is to racing movies, Top Gun 2 is to aviation movies. Definitely the best movie with fighter jets and with The Northerner for me the movie of the year so far. Story 4/5. Action 5/5, Humor 3/5, Violence 0/5, Fun 5/5 Music 5/5, Visuals 5/5, Atmosphere 5/5, Suspense 5/5, Emotion 5/5, Actors 5/5. 9/10.
