    I heard "Up in the air" is supposed to be really good.

    Can't say I've heard anything about "Brothers" to be honest

    I've seen them both and I'd say Brothers by a mile.

    I'd say steer clear of Up in the Air completely.

    That's just my opinion though.

    I went to Up in the air last week, alrite flick but nothing special. Would expect Brothers to be the better of the 2. I hope to see that over the weekend.

    'Up In The Air' was great... 'Brothers' was meh!

    Up In The Air was excellent.
    Brothers stars two of the worst actors in the industry and was poo.

    Neither of them are spectacular...both are decent and watchable.

    I liked Brothers but Up In The Air feels a bit more complete

    a bit...

    Up In The Air so :)

    or is there anything else on at your local multiplex :D

    Have seen both.

    As far as I'm concerned, Brothers at least had a point. Up in the Air did not. Having said that, Brothers could have been better. Another missed opportunity by (note, not for) Sheridan. A couple of things different and he could have absolutely nailed it.

    Up in the Air just seems like one long commercial. Besides the whole American Airlines thing, there is just very little substance to it.

    OP, what I would say to you is don't make it an either or with these 2 movies. That would suggest that both of them are excellent movies. They are not. They are middle of the road 3 star films.

    What I would suggest to you is go to The Boys are Back and be pleasantly surprised. Far superior film to the other two.
