Credited with bringing audiences back to movie theaters following the pandemic, this belated sequel to the hit 1986 fighter-pilot action film Top Gun collected nearly $1.5 billion in worldwide grosses to become the highest-grossing movie of 2022—and of Cruise's entire career, which is no mean feat. And it wasn't just popular—it's an excellent film, with critics scoring the Joseph Kosinski-directed Maverick nearly 30 points higher than its predecessor. Maverick even received a Best Picture nomination (among six total Oscar nominations).
“Thirty-six years after the original, Tom Cruise is having the time of his life, the in-flight thrills are off the charts and—hot damn!—you won’t find more blazing action anywhere.” —Peter Travers, ABC News
