Movie Review

Farra Izlin: What a ride! It takes you on a journey exploring the emotional turmoil that “Pete” (the main character) holds and how it affects the training course that he is responsible for. It was fast paced, action packed, and with a dash of a funny element. Definitely a must watch! ★★★★★

Desy Damayanti Simamora: This is a fantastic action movie with gorgeous cinematography, and perfect music! Action scenes in the air are top-notch, I couldn’t take my eyes off the screen. What a thrilling ride! ★★★★☆

Martyna Jozefowicz: After 36 years Tom Cruise comes back once again to face the struggles of being one of the Navy‘s top aviators. During the movie, we can immerse ourselves in the world of aircraft thanks to the outstanding CGI and visual effects. I would recommend this movie to all the fans of action and drama. ★★★★☆

Ryoo Han-il: I was able to see a thrilling action scene with a fighter jet. The music was also very nice. “Rooster,” who played the piano and sang, was so attractive. Tom Cruise was cool riding a motorcycle, dating a girl, and he was coolest when he was flying a fighter jet. ★★★★★

Kai Fernandez: Tom Cruise and the entire cast did a phenomenal job in Top Gun: Maverick, displaying unmatched acting skills. The movie offers an emotion-evoking, expertly written storyline, romance, well-researched aviation terminologies, humor and thrilling action scenes like the blood-curdling cobra maneuver that just blew me away from my seat! ★★★★★
