Up in the Air – my vote for pic of the year!

Spoiler Alert: do not read unless you have seen Up In The Air & Hurt Locker

The Hurt locker was a great film as well. Both main characters follow the same path

1. The work they do is “who” they are. 
2 They both have to come to grips with the demons they face.

The main diference and the one that pushs Up In The Air to a higher level for me, is the main character in Hurt Locker is given the chance at a loving family and a new life and he feels he has to go back to the war. The main character in Up In The Air decides he wants a better life and comes face to face with a woman who was everything he was. That realization was facinating, with award winnning writing and acting.

Both great films
