Up In The Air

Up in the air was an enjoyable movie with an eerily similar role by George Clooney (Ryan) to what many perceive to be his real life persona. Vera Farmiga (Alex) had wonderful chemistry with George and their scenes together were a joy to watch. Anna Kendrick is an up-and-coming actress known to many teenagers as Jessica from the Twilight series. People may recognize her from that but she took over the role of Natalie. Jason Bateman is starting to get typecast as a smarmy yuppie-ish character but he plays the role well so why knock a good thing. My only drawback in this movie is the plot twist concerning Ryan and Alex's character. In the interest of not spoiling the movie for others, I will suffice it to say that I disliked the ending so can only give this movie one thumb pointing to all the flights 'flying the friendly skies'.
