Popcorn Culture - Review: Air

We're not sure what's more exciting about this movie - the fact that it reunites Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, or that it has a stacked cast including Viola Davis, Chris Tucker, and Jason Bateman, or that it's about the most iconic shoeline in modern culture, the Air Jordan. In this episode, we review Air, a quirky biopic about how Phil Knight (Affleck) and Sonny Vaccaro (Damon) pursued Michael Jordan to have his name slapped on a new range of Nike shoes.
