One of George Clooney's Best!

Rating: 9/10 (6 December 2012)

Up in the Air is a sweet, memorable film that features charismatic performances from the leads, a clever script, and a plot that people can relate to whether positively or negatively. This film has a great mixture of comedy and romance and that adds to the pleasure of watching this movie.
This film is about a guy whose job is travel around the states to fire people. Reluctantly, he must train a new, young girl to do the same thing. Despite not be very willing about it, the life of this guy is about to change.
The acting is extremely good. George Clooney gives one of his best, if not his best performance ever. Vera Farmiga is very good as Clooney's lover. But, Anna Kendrick really nails down her role. She comes into her own and out of the Twilight shadow with this film.
Overall, this is a great followup by Jason Reitman after 2007's Juno. He really knows how to make these kind of quirky comedies. This film definitely deserved the 6 Academy Awards it got nominated for. I rate this film 9/10.
