The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

[TallBill]

It was ok. Didn't go super crazy over it.

Same here...I did like it, but it wouldn't even make it in to my top 10 of the year

Gimmicky movie. Taking a relatively boring life and making it go backwards is still one hell of a boring movie.

This. It is a very uninteresting movie with pacing issues. It's one of the worst movies I've seen in a while.

Double Fail.

I thought it was good. Not great, but good.
I applaud them for trying.

I judge a movie by how many times I fall asleep watching it in one sitting. I only fell asleep for a short time once, so it's a decent movie. Good movies keep me up from start to end. Bad movies are the ones where I sleep longer or fall asleep multiple times (e.g. Idiocracy).

liked Dark Knight a whole lot more

Dark Knight was very good.

Will wait for DVD, as always. Bound to be more scenes. And with good movies, I really want to see those scenes.

I've never fallen asleep in a movie theater, until Quantum of Solace. It was that bad.

It was exactly that. The clock went backwards in time just as Benjamin did.

BB was an awesome and very engaging movie. Although I thought they stretched it out a bit too long.

I thought it was the perfect movie in every way.

There were some cool parts, but overall it was boring.

Brad's character seemed mentally retarded throughout the movie. What was up with that?

He is retarded, he chose Jolie over Aniston, yay can-o-worms now opened.

You're thinking of it the wrong way... he had Aniston, and now he's had Aniston AND Jolie

Hell no he went from driving a Rolls to now driving a Yugo.

Put me in the "Hated it" camp. What I don't get is why he grew into a baby. He was born baby-sized.

He found out he's retarded choosing Jolie over Aniston, therefore he's moving out, leaving the crazy bitch w/ the little bastards. I read that on the cover of US Weekly.
