No Bull. Starring Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, and Viola Davis, "Air" tells the story of how Nike wooed Michael Jordan into signing a sneaker deal, producing the Air Jordan line of sneakers (and making David Falk look like a madman in the process). The movie was released to critical acclaim — but it was noticeably absent of its critically acclaimed subject. (Sporting News)
