Michael Jordan had won two championships and lived through two small scandals when this documentary-lite was made in 1993. During his 1991-1992 season, the unauthorized book The Jordan Rules accused the player of being a bossy, hot-tempered team captain, and questions about Michael's off-court gambling habits arose. Still, as the level-headed Jordan notes, he had decided that year that the only person who could knock him off his pedestal would be himself--not a book author or media folks. In short, Michael matured. And while watching Air Time, it's hard not to believe in a guy who's had to believe in himself so often--especially when you see the endless stream of media pressure and public attention the man faced every day. It puts Jordan's love for golf in a new light, as a serene escape from the NBA circus.

While the video sprinkles Jordan's commentary throughout, it covers the Chicago Bulls' first two championships (with downright cool footage of the 1992 playoff series against the Knicks); Michael's second Olympic experience; his commercial endorsement work; and a music video with the ever-ghoulish Michael Jackson. Sneak peeks into Jordan's home life with Juanita and the kids are also tossed in. What's most engaging, though, is not walking down memory lane into the Bulls' glory days against L.A., Portland, and every other NBA team, but learning what a truly stable and genuine off-court demeanor Jordan has. In an age when young players proudly sport their arrogant, entitled attitudes, Michael's authentically gracious ways are those of a dying breed. After all, what red-hot player today--when given the opportunity to be captain of a Dream Team featuring Magic Johnson and Larry Bird--would defer without hesitation to his elders? Latrel Sprewell, he's not--and thank goodness. --Karen Karleski

5 out of 5 stars Review On Air Time   February 21, 2003

This video sends chills through my body when I watch it. It shows Michael at his best and in the prime of his leaping days. This video is a motivation to me, I try to put it on every morning when I wake up. I strongly reccomend this video.


5 out of 5 stars IF you like Mike you will like Airtime   December 21, 2000
Airtime came out after the Bulls second championship, during a time when Jordan was being touted as the greatest player that ever was just preceding the final season before his first retirement. What is captured here is the last of the youthful Jordan who beat you with speed because he didn't have to out think you. This video is only second to Micheal Jordan's playground in capturing the athletic marvel that Air Jordan possessed. Whether you are a basketball -or- Jordan enthusiast or impressed by the things Micheal Jordan could and did do on the court, I recommend this video. The people at NBA Entertainment packaged it so that it is not some romp for enthusiasts only. Quite entertaining. Expect to see Micheal Jackson, as well! Hey, maybe that works for you, eh 8-)

"Air Time," like all Michael Jordan videos, is awesome and scores a thundering slam dunk. It has a lot of Jordan's best gravity-defying shots and dunks, but it has a lot more than just highlights. Out of all the Michael Jordan videos I've seen, this one has more about Jordan as a person than any of the others. You'll see him spending time at home with his family, playing golf, and off the court at the Barcelona Olympics in '92. It also has a lot of insight from Jordan himself on what it's like to be a superstar, what he thinks of his friends in the NBA, and he talks about what he thinks of himself when it comes to basketball and as a role model.

"Air Time" does have a lot of Michael Jordan highlights from the regular season, a couple of the championships, an all-star game, and from the '92 Olympics. It also tells of some of the controversy Jordan had to put up with such as the accusations of his gambling and when a writer stated something that Jordan supposedly said about one of his teammates.

Bottom line, when you watch "Air Time," you'll learn a lot more about Michael Jordan than you ever knew before, and it's coming from him in his own words. It also has some spectacular highlights that you will never forget. If you're a Michael Jordan fan, I recommend getting this video right away. If you're not a Michael Jordan fan, this video might change your mind about him.
