Probably the most interesting use of digital formats yet.

If you're a fan of French New Wave, this one'll appeal to you. This is sort of like Goddard in the Ghetto. More of a visual poem than a straight narrative. A little uneven in the story, but compelling weird characters, all cranked up to eleven. This film kind of reminded me of a lot of the 60s French cinema... in its loose use of camera, very precise cutting, unapologetic presentation of its loser characters. It felt very truthful and human -- not glossy and antiseptic. Great soundtrack. Beautiful young lead actresses -- Alison and Charis are their names-- the camera loves them.

Literally the worst movie ever.

Everyone involved should be ashamed of themselves.

I'm sure that the critics have given them enough of a bruising, but I'd like to add my own.

Terrible acting, terrible direction, a terrible feeling in the pit of my stomach when I realized it was not intended as a joke.

Inspired, Insightful, Touching

In the bleak landscape of contemporary American cinema, there seem to be few who will do anything to shake it up. This film shakes it up.

Not for everybody, as are hamburgers, but amongst the grim clutter there is a fresh voice that sings through this rough journey.

Well worth the time to watch, and the hours later you'll spend thinking about it, as well.

Visually Spectacular Film

The Price of Air if a very moving film.

It keeps you on the edge of your seat waiting to see if Paul and Anne are going to get away from the distributors of "Blue". "Blue" is the driving force of the action and is stunning to see how many would kill to get their hands on it.

Shooting this movie on video allowed Josh to tell the story visually. Setting moods with color and contrast draws the viewer in to appreciate a great movie.

Opening the movie with the ending adds some very creative editing. Editing that does not let you down the entire movie. Once you feel like you are getting comfortable with the flow the timing changes and so does the mood.

Overall it is a wonderful film that should be seen by all.

Oooh...Exciting!!!!!

What price would you pay for a movie like this? Air, perhaps? LOL Anyways, "The Price of Air" is one of those movies that, once the show begins, you are strapped on for the ride of your life. Everything about this flick totally appealed to me! I like all of the action sequences that this movie provides. As a matter of fact, I can just see myself hanging ten in midair right now as I am typing this up!!!!!

In my true, honest to Pete opinion, "The Price of Air" is one of the great foreign action flicks of our generation. While some people may confuse this with a basketball flick, this movie is really a cliff-hanging thriller here for years to come.
