Up in the Air

The most interesting idea for me is that the main character, Ryan, has a job that requires him to fire people. For him to do so, he had to travel around the world, meet the employees and then fire them. Only later in the film a different technique of firing is introduced, which is done through the internet video system. One thing that can be said for sure is that the film can cheer you up even when you are in a bad mood.

One thought on “Up in the Air

  1. I agree with you that the film can cheer you, but I would also add that I only started to really enjoy the movie near the middle and end of the movie (after I got past the shock of seeing so many people’s reaction of getting fired by a stranger) when I started to see Ryan’s growth in the movie and seeing the movie’s lesson about maintaining relationships with those you care about in life.
