In Reitman's (JUNO, THANK YOU FOR SMOKING) return to corporate America, Clooney is at his smooth, sardonic best as management consultant Ryan Bingham. His work takes him around the country, helping him pursue his private goal of accumulating ten million air miles and entering an elite club. Faced with the threat of video conferencing being introduced at his firm, he talks his way into one last round trip. This time he has an added incentive, having just met Alex, the beautiful and sassy frequent flyer of his dreams. With its sharp script and crisp direction, UP IN THE AIR is a pleasurable story of a supremely self-sufficient (or perhaps plain self-centred) lone-wolf having to reassess his priorities. And while Bingham is the film's driving force, Reitman gives his female characters a welcome depth and complexity too.
