Ratings and reviews

For some strange reason this movie is not sold in the USA. You can only rent it here and amazon won't sell it because it has a different country code. Fantastic movie, just wish I could buy it.

The Air up there is a great movie you should see about getting a lot more than just one of many different players.

I went to play store and had to go straight to movie and typed in The Air Up There. It's the truth, gotta have it
