'Air' immerses the viewer into the 1980's: the soundtrack, the style, the fashion... and it goes in depth about Michael Jordan's deal with Nike, and all that it took to get there. The cast is amazing- Damon, Affleck, and Bateman shine in their roles, but once again Viola Davis is powerful in her role as Michael Jordan's mother. I read that Affleck consulted with Michael Jordan throughout to ensure accuracy of details, and Jordan insisted that Viola Davis play his mother- how cool is that! 'Air' is one of the best 'based on a true story' movies I've seen- I always appreciate actual pics and info at the end which shows the real life players, and it was very powerful in this film.
