'Top Gun: Maverick' manages to achieve the impossible when it comes to modern summer movies, and that's finding the perfect balance of crowd-pleasing entertainment and a quality movie.

I originally had no interest or excitement for this movie and wasn't planning on seeing it in the cinema, until I saw the glorying reviews it received that convinced me to check it out, and I'm glad I did.

Maverick Soars to Action Blockbuster Heights

Top Gun: Maverick perform the rarest of rare feats - not only is it a sequel that is as good if not better than the original, it is also one that bucks the trend of being good despite the vast amount of time between entries. And it all rests on the shoulders of Tom Cruise who has proven to be an action movie star of the highest caliber.

Maverick doesn't waste any time diving right into the action as we find our still-captain Pete 'Maverick' Mitchell once again ignoring higher-ups in order to perform a risky speed test for an aircraft that is about to be scrapped in favor of a drone project. With Chester 'Hammer' Cain (a serious and tough-as-nails Ed Harris) on the way, Maverick takes off to prove their experimental plane can hit Mach 10 - ahead of schedule. But Maverick being …
