The movie itself was decent, take it or leave it, although George Clooney did a great job as usual. However, there was one exchange between Archie Gates (Clooney) and Conrad Vig (Spike Jonze) which is just great:
Archie Gates: You're scared, right? Conrad Vig: Maybe. Archie Gates: The way it works is, you do the thing you're scared shitless of, and you get the courage AFTER you do it, not before you do it. Conrad Vig: That's a dumbass way to work. It should be the other way around. Archie Gates: I know. That's the way it works.
At first glance, it doesn't seem like that inspiring a message, but once you think about it, it's the perfect way to operate when something is worrying you. Sometimes you've got to just take that leap you don't want to take and hopefully, the payoff will make it all the better.
