- TriviaThough Michael Jordan was not directly involved in the film, Ben Affleck consulted him numerous times to get details on how to accurately portray the story. Jordan's only three requests were that Viola Davis play his mother, and that Howard White and George Raveling be included in the film.
- ErroresThe "Just Do It" slogan didn't come out until 1987. It was created in 1987 by Wieden + Kennedy to accompany Nike's first major television campaign, which included commercials for running, walking, cross-training, basketball and women's fitness.

Sonny Vaccaro: [to Michael Jordan] Forget about the shoes, forget about the money. You're going to make enough money, it's not going to matter. Money can buy you almost anything, it can't buy you immortality. That, you have to earn. I'm going to look you in the eyes and I'm gonna tell you the future. You were cut from your high school basketball team. You willed your way to the NBA. You're gonna win championships. It's an American story, and that's why Americans are gonna love it. People are going to build you up, and God are they going to, because when you're great and new, we love you. Man, we'll build you up into something that doesn't even exist. You're going to change the fucking world. But you know what? Once they've built you as high as they possibly can, they're gonna tear you back down - it's the most predictable pattern. We build you into something that doesn't exist, and that means you have to try to be that thing all day, every day. That's how it works. And we do it again, and again, and again. And I'm going to tell you the truth. You're going to be attacked, betrayed, exposed and humiliated. And you'd survive that. A lot of people can climb that mountain. It's the way down that breaks them, 'cause that's the moment when you are truly alone. And what would you do then? Can you summon the will to fight on, through all the pain, and rise again? Who are you Michael? That will be the defining question of your life. And I think you already know the answer, and that's why we're all here. A shoe is just a shoe until somebody steps into it. Then it has meaning. The rest of us just want a chance to touch that greatness. We need you in these shoes not so you have meaning in your life, but so that we have meaning in ours. Everyone at this table will be forgotten as soon as our time here is up - except for you. You're gonna be remembered forever, because some things are eternal. You're Michael Jordan, and your story is gonna make us want to fly.

The acting... and actors... in this thing was the real attraction for me, and on this it delivered. Matt Damon is the lead and has strong support by Viola Davis, Jason Bateman (my favorite), Ben Affleck, Chris Messina, and Chris Tucker. We even get some cameos from Marlon Wayans and Jay Mohr. The script wasn't great, but these professionals elevated it to something tolerable.
It's based on a true story, the pursuit of Jordan for the first-of-its-kind shoe endorsement deal back in 1984. The nostalgia is another selling point, and maybe there is still some residue of excitement after "The Last Dance" documentary came out, but as a self-contained story... it's alright. I wonder if someone came in cold and watched it, what would they think? By this, I mean if they knew little to nothing of the Nike company, Michael Jordan, or the greater NBA/basketball/sports business landscape, would they still understand and enjoy the film?
I'm definitely glad I waited to see this on Prime Video instead of going to the theaters. So far, Amazon Studios hasn't wowed me with their content.
