People revisit Up in the Air for the same reason it broke through in 2009: clear stakes, memorable faces, and a romance rhythm that doesn't stall in the middle. Jason Reitman keeps the ensemble pointed in one direction. The drama and romance blend is the engine: it lets the film shift registers without feeling like two different movies stitched together.
