Since it debuted early this fall at the Toronto Film Festival, this George Clooney Comedy has been gathering steady buzz as a major Oscar contender. The movie has Clooney playing a guy who lives out of a suitcase because his job entails traveling around the country helping companies to downsize and fire his employees. But then of course he meets his female match.

Doesn’t sound very enticing? Well consider this. It’s George freaking Clooney! Try to think of any missteps he has made in movies in the last five years. Ok, Ok there was Ocean Thirteen and The Good German, but still the man has great taste in movies. If that isn’t enough to convince you this is Jason Reitman’s first movie since being nominated as best director for Juno.

And if that isn’t enough take a look at these exclusive clips!

Up in the Air is scheduled to open on December 25th.
