If you´re looking for a film with some meaning, don´t expect too much from this (maybe give in and go see Avatar in 3D!)
Having some respect for Clooney as an actor and being a regular business traveller I was hoping to connect with this film, but failed miserably.
The commentary on recesionary USA is dumbed down so as not to overwhelm Bingham´s [George Clooney's character -Ed.] journey of self discovery. The way in which Bingham connects with the world is so far fetched its dificult to respect the character (eg. a corporate high flyer who has fooled himself to believe that reaching 5 million mileage points is an important life goal).
