As a character composite of Forrest Gump and Sweeney Todd, Benjamin Button makes for one strange night out at the cinema.

Stunning movie! Cate and Brad were absolutely phenominal and the effects of the aging, both older and younger, were superb! Best picture winner this year, no doubt!

An amazing movie! Brad Pitt, as Benjamin Button, was so endearing. He really touched my heart. This movie has so many layers. It brilliantly portrays the different stages/ages of an individual's life. Very reflective!

Excellent film, very moving. It really gets you thinking about your life. Those who found it a "snoozefest" did not allow themselves to be drawn in by the story or analyze its depths of meaning. If you are looking for a great tale, bring along some attentiveness and you'll really enjoy it!

A really wonderful movie with great acting, moral underpinnings and fabulous acting. The interconnectedness of humans really is evident.....I rarely buy or see movies more than once but I will buy this one and see it again....

FORREST GUMP RIP OFF! The first half of the movie is quite engaging and draws you in and I thought wow, it is good. Unfortunately the film drags on for an hour too long and unlike Forrest Gump or the Titanic which were so superb that the time flew, Benjamin Button begins to lag and it becomes a matter of filling in the blanks and giving us as much info on what happened to the characters as possible. It's quite tedious as is Cate Blanchett's fake "old voice" which really began to grate on my nerves. The makeup job, the concept and the first half fantastic. I really struggled not to walk out during the last hour and I didn't know until after but my partner had been feeling the same way, as did

A Good movie with a great script and picture, meaningfull, touching and inspiring and full with amazing quotes, however the movie moves very slowly at times and drags on a bit, but if you can find the patience through that, youll enjoy a great movie

This was like no other movie I have ever seen because of the backwards and interesting way in which it portrays life. The story itself was also rather interesting and long. Brad Pitt did a great job, and the make up artistry was fabulous. The story line could have been a bit more interesting and I found that there were bouts of long drawn out conversations and menial plots but over all a rather enjoyable movie. I think to enjoy this you have to be able to realize the deeper meaning of how the movie portrays life, and the significance of the characters and Benjamin’s life story. Because of its creativity and outlook on life and the human condition I give this movie 4.5 stars, it should defini

I was dragged to this Movie by my Wife,and I have to admit I enjoyed very much,a very different type of Movie from what I would normally like.The acting by everyone in the film was very good,but the standout,award worthy performance,was by Taraji P.Henson as Queenie.This woman deserves to be a Big Star,she stole every scene she was in,an amazing Talent.

Koodoos to the computer staff, great job. It still amzes me that Brad Pitt can just stand, not say a word, look into space and people think he's acting. I'm sorry but he's nothing more than a pretty face and body pretending to be something he's not...an actor. The dancing was fabulous, Cate Blanchett delivered a very plausible performance; I'd loved to have those legs. Julia Ormand's chararcter could've been played by any actress as it was pretty nondescript; but hey she got paid big bucks and I didn't so who's the winner here? As I said, the computer was great! I agree with the previous review about how Pitt's character should've had kept his body as it became younger..it's pre

"Benji Buttons" is Pitt's Erin Brockovich.

Did anyone who like the movie actually watch it? This movie is like the result of "Titanic" and "Forrest Gump" mating. I did not even watch it to the end. It was not original and highly predictable. There was no real depth to the movie or the characters. It is unnecessarily long and slow, the story could have skipped some parts and the movie may then have been at least worth my 10 bucks. Whew!

Sort of a hybrid between 'Big Fish' and 'The Notebook': you know how the movie is going to end but you still play along with the quirky characters. Storyline was interesting. Brad Pitt is beautiful. A bit long but I'll probably go see it again.

Very good movie although a bit too long, but the great acting and direction keeps you into it. This millennium's Forrest Gump!

Better than all the Saw sequels put together!

How is it the special effects wizards can turn Brad Pitt into a senior citizen but Cate Blanchett still looks like a man?

User review rating: 0 December 31, 2008

The movie was more hype than anything else. Story line was okay to the point that Benjamin Button started to become a baby. it would have been better if the ending was more credible. Should have been in an adult body, but with an aged mind. He started in an aged body with a baby's mind and it should have ended in the same theme. three hours I will never get back.

Great Movie! Has a 'Forrest Gump' aura about it. Almost 3 hours, but never boring. Best movie out in a while.

User review rating: 0 December 30, 2008

This was wonderful story telling at its best. It completely captured my imagination and it seemed to end too soon.

User review rating: 0 December 30, 2008

Good story; however the fact it played out longer than 30 minutes was just too much. Acting was good and definitely would not see it again and do not suggest anyone else to see it either.

Good movie...didn't like when he turned into a baby though. So sad :(

User review rating: 0 December 30, 2008

Did I love the movie, no...did I like it yes. Were the make-up effects clever, yes. Were Cate and Brad good yes (mind you I liked the secondary actors better)...glad I saw the film but too long and parts of the story rather boring...but Hollywood will love and rave about it.

Not for the squeamish!

i would have walked out if I wasn't with my wife. I LOVE Fincher...and this was not good. It played out like a poorly written novel, so much more could have been done with this story. The drama was not there and I have no idea why people were laughing... The acting was great and some fantastic mackup give it three stars from me... but I've never been so uncomfortable at the theatre.

Great movie for sure and much deeper than I would have expected. People that criticized the movie just don't get it!!!! Shallow superficial thinkers is what I figure.

Anyone frightened by clowns should avoid this movie completely.

This was really creepy. It's essentially Little Man without the laughs.

User review rating: 0 December 29, 2008

Anyone who says this movie is bad needs to leave the country. This movie has to be one of the best I've ever seen in my entire life, and I've seen ALOT of movies. David Fincher is a genius, pure genius.
