Isaac and Cameron continue the 2022 reviews with this huge summer blockbuster staring Tom Cruise. Widely seen and widely discussed, Top Gun: Maverick picks up the story from the first film 30-some years later, following Maverick's life in older age. Tasked with training younger pilots, Maverick jumps back in the cockpit for a thrilling action adventure. So what made this film a smashing success? And what might it fail at? A casual and a critic are here to expand the conversation on action films through the decades.
