UP IN THE AIR

December 8th, 2009

 UP IN THE AIR- Premise by Zap2it. “When a new co-worker wants to put an end to corporate downsizing expert Ryan Bingham’s frequent travel, he offers to take her on a tour to demonstrate the importance of face-to-face meetings. As he mentors his colleague, he also arranges a series of hookups with a fellow frequent traveler, and unexpectedly finds he’s developing true feelings for her. Also unexpectedly, Ryan begins to see the people he routinely fires in a new light.” Very good early reviews.

Netflix had this to say– “Ryan Bingham (George Clooney) racks up major miles flying around the country firing employees on behalf of companies. But he faces losing the job he savors to Natalie Keener (Anna Kendrick) — and losing the ability to escape emotional ties to anything. A connection he builds with Alex Goran (Vera Farmiga), however, might change his outlook on the future. Jason Reitman‘s smart comedy also stars Jason Bateman as Bingham’s boss, Craig.

12/23/09- I saw this today and liked it– some depth, some funny parts and also some poignant moments. TRDB.
