Up in the Air
This movie was a sad commentary on today's society - an uncaring, self-centered population. George Clooney was his usual good looking self, but so self absorbed and detached. The young woman he was mentoring was a typical college grad of this time, knows everything in books, nothing about real life. I don't want to leave the movie in a pall of depression a kin to death. I prefer movies that are realistic, redeeming, and show the positive side of the human condition. I would not recommend this film to anyone during the holidays too many folks have already lost their jobs and the economy is tanked - you don't need a movie to remind you about how bad things really are. And who could live with themselves if they had to fly around firing folks - you would have to be an empty shell of a person, which George portrays in this movie. George does a good job of portraying the character, but he is not anyone I would like to be associated with - go see something uplifting & entertaining
