‘Top Gun: Maverick’ (2022)

Okay, so ‘Top Gun: Maverick’ brings back Pete Mitchell, or ‘Maverick’ as we all know him, after years of being one of the Navy’s best pilots. He’s not flying missions anymore, though – he’s been asked to train a new group of elite aviators for something incredibly risky. What really struck me was how the film doesn’t shy away from Maverick’s past, and how it beautifully complicates things when he has to work with the son of his late friend, Goose. Honestly, the aerial sequences are breathtaking – they didn’t rely on CGI, they actually flew those fighter jets, and you can feel every G-force. It’s a visually stunning and emotionally resonant ride.

‘Fighting’ (2009)

‘Fighting’ follows Shawn MacArthur, a young man from Alabama who earns money by selling fake goods on the streets of New York City. His life takes a turn when a seasoned street-fighting coach spots his potential and brings him into the dangerous world of underground fighting. Shawn rapidly becomes a skilled fighter, competing in intense, high-pressure matches. The movie vividly portrays the raw energy of New York’s underground scene and the characters’ relentless pursuit of a better life.

‘Barron’s Cove’ is a suspenseful thriller about a father overwhelmed by grief after his son’s death. Driven to desperation, he kidnaps a child he believes is responsible, hoping to force a confession. The film delves into themes of revenge, the lasting effects of trauma, and how loss can shatter a close-knit community. Brittany Snow and Garrett Hedlund deliver powerful performances, highlighting the intense emotional core of the story.

Manchester gained notoriety for robbing fast-food restaurants in a unique way – he’d enter through the roof to avoid being seen.
