If you are into aviation films, you have to check out Tom Cruise鈥檚 latest project. 鈥淭op Gun: Maverick鈥� goes the distance with every aspect of the movie. I have to admit Cruise knows how to make a movie and keep fans entertained. The authenticity of his work is showcased each time you watch anything he is involved with. In this particular movie, he trained his co-stars by having a rigorous three-month flight school flying a variety of planes.聽
I remember when the 鈥淢averick鈥� movie was announced, I thought, 鈥淲hy is Hollywood tampering with perfection?鈥� The original 鈥淭op Gun鈥� was perfect, and how could it be improved upon? I even tested my theory by watching the original after watching the sequel. To my amazement, I was wrong, because the original was not as good as I remember. The sequel was the better film, because Tom Cruise is a perfectionist. He did not use a bunch of CGI, and the viewer is literally taken for a ride in each scene. I can only imagine how hard each actor trained to make the movie happen.
One aspect I liked is that the movie is not a reboot. The original storyline is followed, and Val Kilmer even has a cameo. I know the original film was great for recruiting new pilots, and this new film will do the same for a new generation of aviation enthusiasts.
