It's Complicated

"It's Complicated" was a terrific movie. I saw it with my wife and another couple - all of us of similar ages to the movie's main characters. Takes place in the beautiful hills of Santa Barbara, Calif and portrays a very upscale lifestyle - beautiful homes, cars, clothes and continental travel between New York and California for family graduation ceremonies. Meryl Streep and Alec Baldwin are an absolute hoot and even though we watched every movie trailer we could find before we saw the movie, we still bent over laughing at the hilarious scenes and dialogue. Undoubtedly, it helps to be of similar age to Meryl's and Alec's characters to fully enjoy and comprehend the real life issues they deal with on screen.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Realistic and sobering

i saw this movie right after "It's Complicated" which was extraordinary and very funny - lots of belly laughs. So the more serious toned "Up in the Air" was a bit of a downer - particularly seeing it during the extremely difficult economic times we are experiencing in our country. Being a frequent flier on American Airlines and a member of both Hilton hotel and Hertz rental car programs, I can say the mechanics of a road warrior's life are pretty accurately portrayed. Clooney does a credible job, but I wouldn't classify it as award winning.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
