Anyone seen \"View From the Top\"?
I saw this film last friday and actually found it pretty enjoyable. I don't know if you've seen the previews, but it follows a group of flight attendants through their training and the beginning of their careers, starring Gwyneth Paltrow, Mike Meyers, and Christina Applegate.
Although it was VERY cheesy, corny, etc etc, I still found it interesting because of the way it followed the airline "career ladder". The girls in the movie start out at a pretty seedy regional in Carson City then struggle to move up to the majors, hitting a few snags along the way. Although it was far from factual, I could identify with a lot of the humor.
In the end, it's more of a chick flick due to the embedded romance story involving the main character. I wonder if I should be concerned about the fact that I liked it and my girlfriend hated it.....but it does have a pilot-oriented twist at the end.
Just wondering what anyone else out there thought about it.
