Top Gun: Maverick isn’t just flying high – it’s still in the stratosphere. Two years after landing on Paramount+, Tom Cruise’s monster hit is back at #1 on the platform’s most-watched list, proving once again that America can’t resist a little speed, sweat, and a whole lot of aviator sunglasses. It also helps that Maverick is, well, kind of perfect. Top Gun: Maverick was described by multiple critics as “the movie every American needs to see,” and that’s not hyperbole. With its thunderous IMAX jet sequences, sweaty beach sports, and Cruise’s relentless need for speed, it somehow turned a decades-old military sequel into a spiritual experience. And now it’s doing it all over again on streaming.
