For Top Gun: Maverick, Cruise made sure it could not be done without the proper technology, training, and cast: the actors in the film playing pilots, even those in supporting roles, went through flight training to prepare. The film also cemented Tom Cruise as an action star who could take the leading role in any kind of movie with ease and unprecedented physical commitment. The original film embodies the ’80s in its songs, costumes and overall cheese and broke new ground for what action movies could do and be.

Even if you’re not into planes or military propaganda or both, both films - the sequel being the stronger of the two - are significant to their respective years’, and respective decades’ pop culture. It is not at all hyperbolic to say that Top Gun and (especially) its box office hit sequel Top Gun: Maverick are cinematic miracles. Runtime: 1 hour 50 minutes, 2 hours 11 minutes Starring: Tom Cruise, Val Kilmer, Miles Teller, Glenn Powell In this sweeping epic from Francis Ford Coppola, that also includes standout performances from Robert Duvall and James Caan, Pacino lays the groundwork for his legendary acting career as he takes Michael from a shy military man to a hardened mafia boss who will do anything and everything to maintain the Corleone’s powerful position as the head of the New York crime families.

Heralded as one of the greatest films of all time, The Godfather follows a young Michael Corleone (Al Pacino) as he gets drawn into the family business following the shooting of his father Don Vito Corleone (Marlon Brando). Starring: Marlon Brando, Al Pacino, James Caan
