The movie critic went on to explain how Cruise guided the film to become such a success. “No hand wringing over military might or extended emasculation of its rugged hero, for starters. No lectures on America’s imperfect past or gender inequality,” Toto declared. “And, suffice to say, Top Gun: Maverick isn’t woke in the slightest. It is, though, a testament to American excellence and the ability to achieve a goal no matter the odds.”
Even with some streaming services on a downhill trajectory, many were still surprised that over 11 million Americans saw the Top Gun sequel in theaters over its opening weekend. It’s a testament to what inspires the American people to actually leave their homes to see a movie. Additionally, one popular character from the original Top Gun, Val Kilmer as Iceman, remained a mystery due to the actor’s throat cancer.
