The Air Up There



Jimmy Dolan is a college basketball coach who wants a big promotion. To get it, he needs to make a dramatic find. He ends up deep in Africa, hoping to recruit Saleh, a huge basketball prodigy Jimmy glimpsed in a home movie. But Saleh is the chief's son and has responsibilities at home, since the tribe's land is threatened by a mining company with its own hotshot basketball team.

Movie Trivia/Goofs

→ View All
  • Movie Goof (continuity error): In the basketball game between Winabi and Mingori, Mingori scores and makes it 6-14. We see a person change Mingoris score from 12 to 14. The next time we see the score, it is still 6-12.
  • Movie Goof (factual errors): In the story of his National Championship heroism, Jimmy Dolan refers to a play at the end of the fourth quarter of a game. College basketball is played in two halves, not in quarters.
