Tom Cruise’s Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning is currently playing in theatres worldwide. With an 80% Rotten Tomatoes score, the latest installment may be a solid entry, but it’s certainly not the best-rated film in the blockbuster franchise. That honour goes to Fallout, which boasts an outstanding 98% critics’ score. But you will be surprised to know that one of Tom Cruise’s most popular movies has a surprisingly low Rotten Tomatoes critics’ score. Can you guess which one?
That film is none other than Tony Scott’s cult aerial action-drama Top Gun, which holds a Rotten Tomatoes critics’ score of just 59%. The site’s critics’ consensus reads, “Though it features some of the most memorable and electrifying aerial footage shot with an expert eye for action, Top Gun offers too little for non-adolescent viewers to chew on when its characters aren’t in the air.” Now, let’s see how Top Gun stacks up against its 2022 sequel, Top Gun: Maverick.
Top Gun Vs Top Gun: Maverick – Rotten Tomatoes Scores
Following its theatrical release, Top Gun: Maverick earned a brilliant Rotten Tomatoes critics’ score of 96% with an even higher audience score of 99%. This means the sequel outperformed the original by a staggering 37% in critics’ ratings.
