    Up in the Air

    Anyone see it? Seen it the day it came out. I'm a sucker for movies like this.

    Spoiler: show

    The ending really upset me. Kind of like a lost in translation ending.


    Overall? Great movie.

    I really liked this movie. Clooney is really good and that young girl 'protege' kind of girl was really good too.

    I downloaded it the other night and watched it. Great movie. Clooney is the man, as usual.

    I saw this with my girl a few days ago, we both really enjoyed it. I definitely agree with you about the end, but the movie overall was still fantastic.

    Clooney isn't a man; he is something else all together.

    Edit - And no, I didn't mean Batman.

    fantastic movie, didn't expect to be nearly as good as it was. I can't say I got extremely attached to characters, I think I felt more relation to the unemployed people than the main characters, as their sense of struggle seemed much stronger. Clooney was all like bitch you aint gonna take my shit, but I didn't think he ever realized he could potentially get fired from the method she brought up.

    I was honestly expecting it to happen the entire movie, and was a bit relieved when it didnt, although I was disapointed clooney's character never seemed to make the connection at any point.

    It was a great movie. I didn't like the younger female character, but it just seemed like such a film about real life that it made quite the impression.

    I thought the movie was going to be really good before I watched; I left thinking that the movie was great. It met and/or exceeded all of my expectations for it; I would highly recommend it.

    I watched it about a few weeks ago. Was really good, and met/exceeded my expectations. I knew the ending would turn out the way it did, but it was still good... In a way, it was a perfect ending. The girl was cute, but so was George Clooney.

    I saw it and loved it. Probably has the best chance to win the Golden Globe for Best Picture (drama).

    Started downloading it immediately after seeing the trailer in OP, I am excited after reading all the positive replies. Only positive replies in fact, it has got to be good Kind of wondering how I didn't hear about this until now though, I'm out of it apparently.

    edit: just finished watching the movie and wow, fuck alex. I literally said 'what the fuck!?' out loud multiple times when we found out the truth. Overall, great movie.

    Didn't particularly enjoy it nor did it capture my attention (or imagination...). I thought the acting was reasonably decent, which was just about its only saving grace. Story was terribly predictable and American Psycho style narrations and monologues in films where the character is neither insane nor particularly interesting annoy me to the nth degree.

    Some of the photography in it was nice, but that alone wasn't enough to keep my eyes glued to the screen and I found myself spending more time looking at my laptop than looking at the television towards the end.
