Tom Cruise as Maverick in Top Gun Maverick

Top Gun: Maverick's climactic air assault sequence gets put under the microscope by a retired Top Gun instructor, who looks at the film's depiction of G-forces. Serving as a sequel to Tony Scott's Top Gun from 1986, director Joseph Kosinski's 2022 movie sees Tom Cruise return as Pete "Maverick" Mitchell to train a new batch of recruits for a dangerous mission.

While Berke takes issue with things like the pilots' decision to fly under a bridge instead of over it and the fact that flares wouldn't confuse an incoming radar-guided missile , he is all praise when it comes to the G-force depictions. Check out select comments from Burke's analysis below as well as his score for the climactic mission as a whole:

“Before you have G-LOC , you have something called grayout, which means you’re still conscious, but all your color vision starts to fade away and things turn gray. And sometimes you see the sides of your peripheral vision close in.

The power of the aerial sequences is part of why the Top Gun: Maverick reviews were glowing from critics and audiences alike. The film sports a 96% critics' score and 99% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes, and the sequel ultimately grossed $1.496 billion at the box office. Though not all of Top Gun: Maverick is accurate to the real-life fighter pilot experience, the film evidently gets G-forces very right.
