Product Description

Product Description

Ryan Bingham (Academy Award® winner* George Clooney) is truly living the high life. Flying all over the world on business, he never stops moving...until he meets Alex, a fellow passenger and learns that life isn’t about the journey, but the connections we make along the way. Acclaimed by critics and audiences everywhere and included in over 200 top 10 lists, "Up in the Air is light and dark, hilarious and tragic, bouncy and brainy, romantic and real.”*- Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly

Amazon.com

Up in the Air transforms some painful subjects into smart, sly comedy--with just enough of the pain underneath to give it some weight. Ryan Bingham (George Clooney) spends most of his days traveling around the country and firing people; he's hired by bosses who don't have the nerve to do their layoffs themselves. His life of constant flight suits him--he wants no attachments. But two things suddenly threaten his vacuum-sealed world: his company decides to do layoffs via video conference so they don't have to pay for travel, and Bingham meets a woman named Alex (Vera Farmiga, The Departed), who seems to be the female version of him… and of course, he starts to fall in love. Writer-director Jason Reitman is building a career from funny but thoughtful movies about compromised people--a pregnant teen in Juno, a cigarette-company executive in Thank You for Smoking. George Clooney has a gift for playing smart men who aren't quite as smart as they think they are (Michael Clayton, Out of Sight). The combination is perfect: Bingham is charming and sympathetic but clearly missing something, and Up in the Air captures that absence with clarity and compassion. The outstanding supporting cast includes Anna Kendrick (Rocket Science), Jason Bateman (Arrested Development), Danny McBride (Pineapple Express), Melanie Lynskey (Away We Go), and others, each small part pitched exactly right. --Bret Fetzer

    First of, I applaud the brilliance of Jason Reitman who masterfully
    directed and wrote this film. He is proof that creative genius does
    sometimes run in families. This film has very adult sensibilities in
    it's wit & humor, it's weighty & timely subject matter, it's showing of how
    we tend to compartmentalize our lives and attempt to control things in a way
    which we think can gaurd us from being hurt, but of course, in the end we
    are only fooling ourselves. Bottomline is, we are all built to interact
    and in those interactions, there's going to be joy and there's going to be pain.
    Nobody gets out of here unscathed, but if we are smart and lucky and take the risk
    of commiting ourselves to something or someone, then we stand to gain much more
    than we can ever loose. Out of all of George Clooney's performances so far,
    I like him in this one the best!---He nails it and you feel for him completely.
    His performance is supported beautifully by that of Vera Farmiga, who seems to be
    his perfect female counterpart in his clean, cut & dry, no regrets/no attachments
    life philosophy...at least it seems that way. (That later twist threw me for a loop!)

    Anna Kendrick is great as the young over-achiever college grad who, in her way,
    thinks she has her life and career all mapped out, but she too learns that just when
    you think you have all the angles figured out, the game of life switches & shifts on you.
    Jason Bateman is also great in his supporting role as George Clooney's and Anna Kendrick's
    characters funny but very bottomline boss.
    I also think it was brilliant of Jason Reitman to use people who have really
    recently been fired from their jobs for no reason other than the economic downturn,
    because it adds such depth and reality to their reactions when Clooney's
    and Kendrick's characters do what it is that they do for a living,
    which is flying from city to city and being the human resources "heavies" for
    companies who don't even have the guts to fire their own otherwise loyal and
    hardworking employees face to face. Many of these people reflect the scenarios
    of what so many others in this situation have had to deal with....just heart-breaking stuff.
    This is a great film and deserves all the accolades it's received this year.
    It gets off some great messages without being preachy about it.
    A good addition to your DVD collection if you like films with substance and heart.

    When I first heard about this movie, all I knew was that George Clooney plays a character who spends most of his time traveling. Consequently, I couldn't imagine why it got so much critical acclaim. After seeing it, I agree completely with the acclaim and highly recommend this movie to anyone who enjoys a great and interesting drama/comedy. The acting is wonderful, the writing is engaging and witty, and the story is a little unusual.

    Ryan Bingham (Clooney) works for a company whose business is informing people they've been fired by their employers. Personally, I didn't know such a business existed, but I can see how some bosses might actually hire other people to do their firing for them. Ryan clearly has been doing his job for many years and while he doesn't enjoy firing people, he knows how to handle it well. The part of his job he actually enjoys is the constant travel; he's only in his own apartment for a few days a year. Then along comes Natalie Keener (Anna Kendrick) who's almost fresh from college and sells the company on the idea of firing people remotely instead of traveling to do it in person. Ryan and Natalie end up traveling together to allow Natalie to see how things are currently done and to test the new system. Natalie developed this new idea without ever being involved personally with firing someone before.

    Relationships - and the avoidance of them - are integral to the story. Ryan makes additional money doing speeches on how not to weigh yourself down, an idea which includes keeping some distance from others. He meets Alex, who seems to be his female counterpart in many ways, while traveling and they begin a casual relationship. On the opposite side of the spectrum, Natalie has a boyfriend and cannot understand Ryan's approach to life. It's clear Ryan even keeps his family at a distance when his sister's wedding comes up. Still, he does care for his family and even begins to connect more with Alex, so he asks her along as his guest.

    With a story quite unlike his previous success "Juno", Jason Reitman has again done a superb job balancing drama and comedy. It even includes a couple of unexpected twists which will leave you thinking. The theme of layoffs is naturally especially relevant today, but the story doesn't get so bogged down as to become too depressing.

    This is possibly, in objective terms, only a 4-star. But to anyone who has 1) been dependent of frequent-flier points for business travel and 2) seen a colleague or friend get sacked and "out-counseled," this one is 5-, 6-, or 7-stars all the way. George Clooney is right at the top of his game, and Vera Farmiga takes credible insincerity to heights unseen ever before in an American film. Even on 3rd viewing I found it all utterly thrilling.
