An incredibly well-written epic on the seriousness of losing yourself in the selfishness of solitude, "Up in the Air" chronicles the ill-connected character of Ryan (played by George Clooney) and his search for happiness in loneliness. He finds out that he is wrong on almost every turn when two women (Vera Farmiga and Anna Kendrick) enter his life and change it forever. A wonderfully-acted and brilliantly-written story of what life means without anyone in it, I highly recommend it.

It had a lot of good things about it. But, it was fairly predictable, and seemed to go on for too long.

i don't think this is quite 3.5, but I was generous, I wish I could give it 3.25 stars. It looks like your typical rom-com, but it's much more than that. It's about what's going on in the world today. Lots of people around the world are losing their jobs and at least the companies doing the firing, if they can't do it themselves, can at least fire someone face to face with dignity and respect. It's also about the technological age and how everyone is so engrossed with their Blackberry, Facebook, this website, that they forget and/or ignore the outside world. But, sometimes it's that outside world, that personal connection that you need. Fantastic, a must see for everyone.

Easily one of the best of 2009. George Clooney has never been better, and I thought Michael Clayton would be tough to top. Several elements are involved here - romance, drama, comedy - and it all works. Clooney and Vera Farmiga have great chemistry and the supporting cast stands out as well. Definitely a must see, the trailers for this movie don't do it justice.
