TL;DR Summary

"Air" is a decent movie about the story of Michael Jordan's decision to sign with Nike over better-selling competitors Converse and Adidas. However, the film is more interesting as a piece of business than as a piece of filmmaking, as it heralds the future of studios designed to enrich talent and maintain production control. "Air" is the first movie from Ben Affleck and Matt Damon's studio, Artists Equity, which aims to ensure that everyone involved with the production of a movie gets a piece of the pie. The film's theatrical run is little more than an extended advertising campaign for its debut on Prime Video, where most people will end up seeing it.
