Air: Courting A Legend Review

The movie is a thrilling experience, and it was just delightful to watch Ben Affleck make his directorial debut with this piece of art. Fans also enjoyed the performance of the actors and each character played in a just manner and as if the actors were carved out to play their roles. The quality of the direction and production of the film is amazing in its true sense. The movie's Plot development was so smooth and brilliant making it one of the best sports films of all times. What makes the film more interesting is the fact that its storyline is based on a series of true incidents about the brand's Nike and Jordans first launch and their journey in moving ahead and becoming the greatest athletic sneaker brands all over the world. If you are looking for a great watch resonating with your choice of genre, this movie is a good option and should be watched at least once.
