After more than thirty years of service as one of the Navy’s top aviators, Pete “Maverick” Mitchell (Tom Cruise) is where he belongs, pushing the envelope as a courageous test pilot and dodging the advancement in rank that would ground him.
When he finds himself training a detachment of Top Gun graduates for a specialised mission the likes of which no living pilot has ever seen, Maverick encounters Lt. Bradley Bradshaw (Miles Teller), call sign: “Rooster,” the son of Maverick’s late friend and Radar Intercept Officer Lt. Nick Bradshaw, aka “Goose.”
Facing an uncertain future and confronting the ghosts of his past, Maverick is drawn into a confrontation with his own deepest fears, culminating in a mission that demands the ultimate sacrifice from those who will be chosen to fly it.
Top Gun: Maverick Movie Cast, Release Date, Trailer, Songs and Ratings
Top Gun: Maverick — out Friday in cinemas worldwide — is a veritable Tom Cruise movie. For one, his character, the know-it-all Captain Pete “Maverick” Mitchell, is right there in the title. And the much more important two, it's Cruise's star wattage that is responsible for Top Gun: Maverick's existence. Here is a sequel, over three decades on, to a movie much poorer than most are willing to admit. Top Gun hasn't aged well either, but Cruise definitely has. He's the biggest actor of his kind currently in Hollywood. Top Gun: Maverick director Joseph Kosinski (Tron: Legacy) understands both those facets — Cruise's charm and power, and the failures of the original film — and delivers a follow-up that is better in most departments. Though admittedly, Kosinski is clearing a low bar.
