Excellent film. Superb acting by entire cast. Sad, funny, depressing, poignant, harshly realistic. Hits the highs and lows of the human condition with perfect accuracy. George Clooney's acting is magnificent, that coupled with an equally great performance from Vera Farmiga and incredible chemistry between the two made it a shared vehicle for both stars. Started to get concerned of it turning into "oh no, another "feel good movie"" but plot twists quickly changed that. Not quite clear on the very end. My friends and I disagree on what it leaves us with. Did Clooney's character dive right back into work, or did he use his "miles" to go away ? I lean to the former, life goes on, unchanged for at least one character
