VHS Movie Reviews of The Air Up There [VHS]
Movie Review: Not a slam dunk, but not an airball either...
Summary: 3 Stars
The Air Up There (1994) While there are absolutely no surprises in this comedy from Disney, at least it's pleasant and fairly entertaining. Kevin Bacon (Apollo 13) plays a hotshot assistant coach who travels to Africa to recruit a Winabi tribesman for his team. Once there he runs into all of the expected problems and culture shocks. I recommend this one to basketball nuts and the rainy Saturday afternoon crowd.
Summary of The Air Up There [VHS]
Kevin Bacon stars in this quickie sports film that's really more a culture-clash comedy. He plays an assistant coach at the college-basketball level who's looking for that big, big recruiting score and finds it in a distant African village. But his quarry, a seven-footer (Charles Gitona Maina) he spots in an anthropology film, turns out to be the prince of his tribe who's in line for the crown and has no interest in becoming fodder for Sports Center. So it's up to the callous American to convince him that he wants to give this all up to live in a dorm and chase coeds (while, of course, honoring his ancestors). Unfortunately, the jokes are stale and the basketball footage is nothing to get excited about. --Marshall FineAction & Adventure VHS Video
