The Air I Breathe
The Air I Breathe ★ 2007 (R)
Four interlocking stories are delivered in the form of an allegorical gangster movie that ends up an overwrought mess. Characters Happiness (Whitaker), Pleasure (Fraser), Sorrow (Gellar), and Love (Bacon), named for the key emotions of a Chinese proverb, muddle through individual challenges while the menacing gangster Fingers (Garcia) casts a shadow over all their lives. Standout cast fails to overcome the challenges presented by such a poorly executed, pretentious movie. 97m/C DVD. US Forest Whitaker, Brendan Fraser, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Kevin Bacon, Andy Garcia, Emile Hirsch, Julie Delpy; D: Jieho Lee; W: Jieho Lee, Bob DeRosa; C: Walt Lloyd; M: Marcelo Zarvos.
