Synopsis

After Juno, writer-director Jason Reitman loosely adapted Walter Kirn's 2001 novel into this crowd-pleasing dramedy starring George Clooney and Vera Farmiga. He plays Ryan Bingham, a cynical corporate hatchet man who flies from city to city laying people off during the Great Recession. Jiving with his "don't get attached to anything besides your suitcase" mantra, he enjoys a no-strings romance with a fellow frequent flyer (Farmiga). But Ryan's way of life is threatened when a rookie hatchet woman (Anna Kendrick) suggests a way to make the firm's firings more efficient--canning people via webcam. This sparks a chain reaction that leads to Ryan finding his soul. It's like Jerry Maguire, but with literal baggage instead of Tom Cruise. Featuring Jason Bateman, Danny McBride, Amy Morton and Sam Elliott.
