Ben Affleck's 2023 sports movie Air has received overwhelmingly positive reviews from critics, with the response beating his past directed features.
The 2023 biographical sports drama Air is a massive hit with critics, with the film already sitting high among Ben Affleck’s directorial features. Air tells the true story of the origins of Nike’s massively popular Air Jordan shoe line, focusing on the efforts of salesman Sonny Vaccaro to seal a game-changing deal with basketball rookie Michael Jordan to wear their shoes.

Both Damon and Davis have been nominated for acting Oscars, with Davis taking home the award for Best Supporting Actress for Fences.
5 Air Is A Major Crowd-Pleaser Feel-bad movies have certainly risen in recent years, but Ben Affleck’s Air is a certified crowd-pleaser that leaves audiences feeling inspired and energized after the credits roll. Many of Air’s positive reviews celebrate the movie's fun nature and how it brilliantly underscores the legendary nature of Michael Jordan without even showing his face.
Critics’ positive reviews also remark that Air’s screenplay gives the movie a powerful momentum that is enhanced by Affleck’s direction. It’s also noted that the screenplay is written in a manner that audiences don’t have to understand legal jargon, sports marketing, or Michael Jordan’s basketball history to enjoy the movie, as it’s the people and characters that create the high stakes.
