Be forewared, more serious that some people expect

This is a really wonderful movie, both funny and incredibly timely. Clooney is just a pleasure to watch, and he is best when he puts on the movie star hat and lets the charm shine, letting a bit of pathos through the glimmer.
But it IS a film about the economic crisis and downsizing. It is not only about Clooney up in the air flying but about how everyone's life becomes up in the air when they lose their jobs and bearings. The ultimate message in the film is about the lack of safety and security in the world, and that no matter how confident we may be, being "up in the air" may be the fate of all of us. So if you don't want to reflect on such things, don't see the movie.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
