Title: Up in the Air
Year: 2009
Director: Jason Reitman
Lead: George Clooney, Vera Farmiga, Anna Kendrick
Rated: Rated R for language and some sexual content.

Ryan Bingham lives a lonely life, out of a suitcase, traveling the country firing people, until his company grounds him.

This film is very good, Jason Reitman does a great job making this film feel lonely. You feel bad for George Clooney's character, he seems to have a disorder that makes it impossible for him to form a human connection, until Anna Kendrick's character comes into the film and brings a new idea to the business that would eliminate George Clooney's job. Everything becomes more personal for him, he starts to form a connection with Vera Farmiga's character. And then things get kind of weird. I really liked the story, but things got kind of weird 3/4 of the way through. This film was well acted, well directed, and well shot. the cinematography was brilliant, I really liked the long master shots, that was rad. I liked how the film ended. you'll have to see it. This movie is really good, its nominated for a bunch of Academy Awards including Best Director, Best Actor in George Clooney, 2 Best Actress in Vera Farmiga and Anna Kendrick, Best Adapted Screenplay, and Best Picture. i give it 8 out of 10
