After 2 plus years away from the cinema; we finally got tempted back to the IMAX to see Top Gun Maverick. And we were not disappointed. A touch of romance, compassion and a massive dose of action that wasn't over laden with CGI ensured we had a great experience and a reminder that our 4K 55" TV isn't the answer to all our movie dreams
Tom Cruise and cast brought together emotion and great acting that was not overshadowed by the exciting visual content of real life action. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate CGI and the worlds that it opens, but the raw energy of seeing real jets in action and Tom Cruise in the cockpit adds dimension that takes the film away from what might just be an elaborate computer game. I have no doubt CGI was incorporated, but I could not see where it was added, other than they didn't blow up the aircraft
Whilst it is great that everyone has different views, I do not understand some people giving this film 1 or 2 stars. If that's how they felt after watching the film, surely they should have read the synopsis before they went. I can only think these people don't like action movies at all and should have saved their money in the first place, rather than bleating that they were ripped off
Thankfully the vast majority of people enjoyed themselves and this movie will help save the cinema and get people back into seats. IMAX viewing isn't cheap, but we came away feeling we got value for money and I for one, hope the movie receives well deserved Oscar nominations.

Frightened as a 4 year old and today it was great to watch again. Yes we have CGI and animations that are far beyond this, but it was great at the time and us still enjoyable to watch 60 years later. Great show.
Great characters and many story lines that dealt with real issues, but in an exciting and fun way. Simply ahead of its time
