up in the air
Thursday, March 18, 201010:28 PM

Up in the air is about a man who spends much of his life in the air, traveling around the country to fire people for executives too gutless to do the dirty work themselves. Ryan, played by George Clooney, zingers as he savors a life without the vaguest threat of commitment. Trouble arises when his boss hires a young lady, Natalie played by anna Kendrick, who has the idea of cutting costes by instituting a program of firing people over the internet instead of in person.
Ryan sees his footloose lifestyle threatened but he is forced to take Natalie on a cross-country odyssey to train her in the niceties of delivering bad news deftly. There's also a wonderful performance by Vera Farmiga as Alex, a lady who clicks with Ryan because she's also seeking no-string sex on the run.
Eventually, Ryan begins to question the assumptions that have ruled his life. His encounters with Alex and Natalie threaten his complacency.
