don't get duped by the rave reviews expecting a thoughtful movie.. the movie's plot: is insipid and thin..... self absorbed guy flys around the country firing pathetic downsized people while his goal in life is collecting frequent flyer miles. In between he has a fling with a free spirited married women and spars with a young corporate tiger (who pulls off a good role) and is the only solid character. The film is visually boring and and low budget...Clooney is on camera about 95% of the time and that's about the only thing worth watching...maybe it's worht a $1 from Red Box..not the $18 we paid.
