I was debating the best travel movies the other day and tried to build my own list. It’s going to weigh heavily towards planes and airports but I’ve also given some thought to being in an unfamiliar place and growing as a person because of the places you’ve been.
I think each of these films is a classic for a reason, and I try to offer a brief take why. That even holds for some of the ones on the list that may not have been so critically acclaimed.
Up in the Air is best for reasons that should be obvious, Die Hard 2 is awesome even if it’s absurd with more plot holes than the business plan for Washington Dulles’ Independence Air. But was there every really a better air crash investigator than Kris Kristofferson in the broadly panned Millenium?
