電影敘述一位台灣年輕人，徘徊在航空城中，尋找某種生命的喘息與救贖。在細緻在細緻的長鏡頭中，透過隱喻呈現，而非直接陳述。這是一部探索性的電影，作為一個發展中國家紀事，J.N.L.的首部劇情長片展現出強而有力的視野。
In this minimalist and existential look at the perils of free markets and capitalism, a young Taiwanese man, who has invested his inheritance in a dead end property, wanders the streets of Taoyuan City, searching for some form of respite or salvation. There is a strange transitory desolation to be found in the meticulous long takes of Aerotropolis. As a work of self-actualization through hyper-normalization and digitization it is opaque in presentation, not intending to offer easy exposition. As such, it is a film of discovery, requiring attention and patience. As a chronicle of a developing nation Jheng-Neng Li's debut offers a potent window inside.

當初在設計海報上，試過很多種表現手法。最終採用，靈感發想來自山水畫中強調抽象與具象之間的留白語彙。隱喻人與人之間、空間與人之間的對話，對整個世界孤獨又失落的洞察。
Many techniques of expression had been initially applied on this poster design but eventually I adopted the aspect of blank-leaving inspired by Chinese paintings to emphasise the visual language between abstraction and representation. This euphemistical metaphor brought out the dialogue of interpersonal and human-spatial relationship, and the lonely yet lost insight casting to this world.

紐約影評人Joe Bendel
摘要："本片幾乎可以想成是由貝拉塔爾翻拍<航站情緣>或<愛情不用翻譯>，<航空城>是高端藝術片影迷的最佳選擇，導演無比完善的創作視野令人印象深刻，他幾乎一人完成整部長片，片中也有一些驚人的攝影視覺構圖，你絕對不能錯過本片。" (註:貝拉塔爾為匈牙利長鏡頭電影大師)
"You can almost think of it as Spielberg’s The Terminal or Lost in Translation, as remade by Bela Tarr. Aerotropolis is best reserved for a high-end sliver of the cineaste world. It is impressive as the uncompromised consummation of Li’s vision, so pretty much everything in the film is there because of him.There are some stunning visual compositions in the film, which you can’t possibly miss."
