Up in the air


I just watched Up in the air.
This was the story about a man, who didn't know a meaning of family in his life, tries to find a reason of life.
When the company tires to set an remote system for firing people instead of sending a manager to cut people, Ryan (George Clooney) is embarrassed. Because he has thought his life is to cut people, taking plane almost everyday to transfer to work.



 Ryan doesn't like company's new plan.
Ryan and his junior, Natalie, take an daily duty to cut employees all around the states. Ryan let Natalie his conversation skill to manage the fired people's reaction.


Ryan seems to have an emotion to fired people and he knows how to deal with them sincerely. This is a job for him, but it's one more thing than a job. His work is his life and his identity.

Ryan has met Alex who does work as Ryan does. Both of them enjoy their casual relationship; Sex, fun. Time goes by Ryan  came to love Alex, and he starts figuring out what family and love are.
His sister's wedding made him clear about a meaning of his life which is not work but love. Unfortunately Alex is a BITCH who has family.



Ryan had got shock and another bad news came to him that Natalie quit the job.
Natalie applies a company in San Francisco following his ex-boyfriend, and Ryan supports her to get a job because he wants her to follow her love than a carrer like him.




A lovely title sequence.
Fast beat of scenes and shot didn't make me boring.
I think Jason Reitman is amazing writer/director.
