Reviews have been mixed but mainly positive about director Joseph Kosinski's film — and viewers seem to love it, according to its 99 percent audience score on Rotten Tomatoes. It depends on whether you're into how the film uses throwbacks or not, and how you feel about nostalgia.
Finally saw Top Gun: Maverick. Understand why it was so successful. 100 proof Americana, straight into the veins. Makes you say "We used to be a country. A proper country." There’s still hope…

Here's a snippet from our review by Mashable's deputy entertainment editor, Kristy Puchko:
"In the moment, Top Gun: Maverick is a fun action movie that leans heavily on an audience's love of the original to carry it through. It's not only callbacks and returning characters, but repeated beats and soundtrack rehashing that make this not so much a sequel as a victory lap for the character and Cruise too. And honestly, that's pretty comforting entertainment. But should a movie about a life-or-death mission play it so safe?
Nostalgia is one thing, but rerunning the same plotlines, resuscitating the same archetypes, and coasting on the relics of pop culture past makes for a movie that feels sanitized instead of sensational, safe instead of sexy. Essentially, this franchise has lost that loving feeling. And with it gone (gone, gone), so too is a bit of the thrill."
