'Top Gun: Maverick' is 'insidious' for portraying 'virtue' of U.S. military: MSNBC editor
Fox News
MSNBC editor Zeeshan Aleem slammed Oscar-nominated "Top Gun: Maverick" as "insidious" for portraying the American military as a "beacon of virtue."
The action flick, which almost single-handedly recharged the dwindling film industry after the stagnation caused by COVID-19 lockdowns, has been nominated for six Oscars, including "Best Picture." Gabriel Hays is an associate editor for Fox News Digital.
Aleem revealed he was not as pleased with the film as millions of American movie goers. Though he admitted it was "a breath of fresh air to see dazzling live-action aerial combat scenes involving real actors (trained to withstand G forces by real pilots) and (mostly) real planes," the columnist slammed it for being "as insidious as it is entertaining."
