Ryan Bingham fires people for a living. He's so good at it that he spends 360 days a year travelling the world breaking the dreaded news to unwanted employees. Unfortunately for Ryan, his cherished life on the road is threatened precisely as he is on the cusp of reaching ten million frequent flyer miles, and just after he's met the frequent-traveller woman of his dreams. From the director of Juno and Thank You for Smoking, Oscar rumours are already circulating about Clooney's star turn.
An accomplished comedy with a sparky script and compelling performances.
