You never know what's comin' for you

This movie was phenomenal.

It was beautifully filmed and the special effects and make-up were eerily realistic (at least I thought so). It made me laugh, cry and think, which is rare these days with movies.

The story is absolutely heart wrenching and incredibly beautiful. The film is incredibly well done.

I am not a fan of Brad Pitt or Cate Blanchett, yet this movie will be added to my collection when it becomes available.

Benjamin Button

Just when you think Hollywood has come up with every storyline imaginable, out comes Benjamin Button, the chronologically-altered life of an old man who dwarfs into a baby boy and lives his life in reverse.

For those expecting to see Pitt in every scene, forget it. Due to disguising costumes and talented makeup, he does not really reveal himself the way we know him to look today until close to the movie's end.

The storyline grabs your attention from the beginning. Although extremely far-fetched, you stick with it, wanting to see how reality unfolds for this awkward baby as he progresses through time aging in reverse. Perhaps the most poignant aspects of the film are those relating to World War II and his trials at fatherhood, where he makes the ultimate sacrifice.

A bit on the long side, but entertaining nevertheless.

Best Button

Great Movie! I thought it was clever and moving. Im not a Brad Pitt fan, but this was undeniable a very good movie...I would highly recommend spending the ungodly price for a movie these days, two thumbs up!

Movie has it all!!!

Ok....anyone who called this the "Forrest Gump" knock-off, in my opinion, obviously didn't watch it. The only part that resembled that movie was the back and forth from past to present of telling the story. So if that's the case, Titanic was a "Forrest Gump" also.
Anyway, I thought it was very well written. Even though the movie was long, it actually HAD a story through the entire thing. Unlike the Dark Knight which was also long. There wasn't anywhere they would or could have shortened it really. Keep in mind it is a fantasy movie.....(obviously as he ages backwards), but the thought prevoking taste you're left with after the movie, was awesome!! Anyone who watches it should come away from it with something. It was funny, sad, sexy, and made you re-evaluate your life. I give it a 10!! Way to go Brad Pitt!

Great Acting, Great Story and Great Special Effects

I go to the movies for entertainment. To escape for a couple of hours into a different world. I like action films and I also like films
that are poignant and thought provoking, like "Good Will Hunting"," Dead Poets Society", "Man without a Face" or "August Rush"
This is a great movie with all the elements
necessary to keep you enthralled. If the story doesn't hold your attention, which it should, the special effects and great acting should fill the void.
If you are looking for sex, violence, stupidity or another bang bang shoot up murder mystery than skip this movie.
The movie is based on a short story by F. Scott Fitzgerald. That alone should give you the notion this is not another dumbed downed for the new X Generation.

Good but not Great

I was disappointed with this movie, perhaps because it was hyped as being worth waiting in line. There are some precious moments in this film; that is true. But, the story is dragged out often unnecessarily and those moments of sheer boredom tends to kill the story line. There is great acting, from an extremely talented cast. I would recommend seeing this, but lower your bar on expectations as this movie may not deliver the promised "movie of the year" quality you are expecting.
