Episode #318: Air

Welcome one and all! For today’s amazing podcast Mike and Matt chat about a classic American underdog story Air starring Matt Damon, Jason Bateman, and Ben Affleck. Not Nike based topics include video on demand, The Super Mario Bros. Movie, and shoe stores.

So far 2023 has been an interesting year for films with multiple sneak attacks. Air is another one of those attacks. We knew this film was coming out and what it was based around but wow it was a whole lot more than either host expected. The acting and directing is incredible. Matt Damon as Sunny Vaccaro is clearly the standout but he is surrounded by an incredible amount of talent. Viola Davis kills it as we have all come to expect as Michael Jordan’s Mom Deloris. Davis is just insanely talented. The surprise though was Chris Tucker. An incredible actor in his own right but not known for dramatic roles, Tucker is instrumental in this film. Your hosts hope to see him make a much bigger comeback in serious roles like this one.

Air is the complete package. The script is incredible, the story is very good, the acting is out of this world, and the cinematography is excellent. Mike and Matt agree Air is a must see film. Matt gives Air a near perfect rating with 4.5 out of 5 Reels. Mike with a rare perfect rating awards the film 5 out of 5 Reels!
