Ogosmith Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
pointyfilippa The movie runs out of plot and jokes well before the end of a two-hour running time, long for a light comedy.
Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
Staci Frederick Blistering performances.
Dean Gillings I had absolutely no idea what to expect out of this, I've seen both stars in other things and really enjoyed their work, Djimon Hounsou and Norman Reedus were thoroughly brilliant. Excellent choices by the casting director. It was tense and thoughtful throughout and kept me thinking all the way through about how it would end. I thoroughly recommend it.
James Science fiction has always been there to "test us out" with elements of the familiar in scenarios that are entirely unfamiliar. That's probably a healthy thing, though one is perhaps entitled to question whether it is reasonable to "see how human beings behave" in a largely fantastic (in this case dystopian) scenario to which are added so many specific and contrived conditions (problems) that the already-inconceivable-looking scenario is made less possible by far. In essence, this is what Christian Cantamessa's "Air" does, and in so doing it in some sense resembles, for example, the films of the "Cube" series (though those were glossy and high-tech in their cruelty, while here all is shabby and grey). Still, in "Air" too, both cast (that's basically three players, and mainly just a pretty-Daryl-ish Norman Reedus plus the at-first-sight somewhat strange bedfellow of Djimon Hounsou) and audience are made to jump through hoops a bit to accept what's going on. There's also more than a hint of "10 Cloverfield Lane" in here, as well as the recent (i.e. later-than-2015) "Passengers".So does "Air" have enough to offer either a general audience, or else that more specific subset of people who are already die-hard sci-fi fans? I will elect to answer that question from the point of view of somebody included in the latter category and say "yes". Ultimately, this is an imaginative and intriguing film in which our route to the shocking dystopia it portrays is just about fleshed out enough to engender a shudder and a measure of satisfaction among we "experts" in things that could go wrong with the Earth. It also does well enough at portraying the simultaneously dull yet creepy mini-world that has remained habitable in the midst of catastrophic destruction. Occasionally that confined world has a measure of cosiness, more often it seems claustrophobic, but the imagination takes flight and the empathy turns on when one is made to realise that that is now "all there is". The storyline reminds us repeatedly that this was a last-minute effort cobbled together to try and save something as opposed to nothing, and this is rather a first in movies of this ilk, and somewhat poignant it is too, at least at times.Indeed, so relatively slapdash and Heath Robinson is much of this that our two key characters have few options to work with, yet do keep working hard to expand that list. And given the very specific way they do their jobs (coming out of stasis only periodically for very strictly-limited periods of time), it is true to say that at most moments in the film we viewers have little or no idea of what will follow. Maybe that throws up expectations that can't be met on occasion, but it must also be seen as something reasonably fresh and unique in a film.Ultimately, people are people, and even the scale of our heroes' responsibility (which we are reminded of repeatedly) and the measure of the dystopian challenge cannot suffice to allow our two maintenance men to go on robot-like, doing the job without emotion. Rather, emotion tends to take over, as well it actually might under such extreme circumstances , so fair enough. The very final segment goes with that, but is far less successful, and indeed looks surplus to requirements in what is otherwise a pretty well-imagined and taut piece of film-making supplying a truly awful end of the world on a shoestring, but actually rather well; and offering us a thought-provoking and unpredictable storyline on the back of two seemingly randomly-selected actors who actually gel effectively enough.
nitrogenium1 This is my first review on IMDb because today I got motivated to write one. All because this movie deserves a higher grade, but got low ratings from people expecting to see Star Wars or Star Trek when they heard that this is a SCIENCE fiction movie.So before I start:1. This is not Star Trek where small midgets run around with sharp ears and shoot among themselves with green and blue laser guns. So in other words, this movie is SCIENCE fiction. Star Trek is CHILDREN's fiction. 2. Thus said, probably the poor reviews came from people who were expecting to see a Star Trek movie.3. Surprisingly great acting from a guy who came from a very shallow show like The Walking Dead. If you want to watch a bunch of pointless running around, explosions, hot chicks on bikes with laser guns killing zombies while standing on one foot and throwing fire through her ears, then don't watch this movie.4. But you liked Moon, Interstellar, Sunshine, etc you will enjoy this. This is a very intelligent, well thought SCIENCE fiction thriller movie, and we need more of these.
851222 Greetings from Lithuania."Air" (2015) is just another worthless flick set in the future were humanity is wiped out and there are only couple of survivors. "Pandorum" was so much better movie then this one, witch features a 2 times Oscar nominee and zombie show star. Acting was OK, no awards will shine in here. Although i liked some more claustrophobic scenes, but overall this movie isn't anything special, original or intriguing. There are plenty of this genres low budget films much better then this one.Overall, "Air" is below average flick, which is very quickly forgettable. I couldn't recommend it to anyone, even for genre lovers. You can skip this flick, it's not worth your time or money.
