Good Movie, Somewhat Unique

Rating: 8/10 (4 February 2010)

I tend to seek out movies that maybe have a unique theme, a theme that has not been overworked by Hollywood. This movie has a fairly unique theme - with George Clooney Road Warrior. In the business world, a road warrior is someone who travels a great deal, which today mostly means planes,rental cars and hotel rooms. A good number of people have lived that life, including me (but not to the extent as George) and it was great to see it as a movie subject. If you have traveled a lot, especially for a business, you would likely smile at his inside knowledge how to get through airports fast and comfortably and dealing with life in a 10 by 15 foot hotel room most of your life. Nice Portrayal.
That is part of the movie, and another part I feel was a fairly serious portrayal of relationships. Business relationships to be sure, but also personal relationships of singles and married folk. Since these are relationships, perhaps not all will always like how things turn out, but I felt it was a fairly deep portrayal that does bring you into the feelings of the movie characters. The acting is good or better than good, the movie has both a light feel and a very serious one both at the same time - which gives it depth.
