The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

[Fritzo]

I was forced to watch The Curious Case of Benjamin Button- the latest Brad Pitt movie. My eyes were taped open and I was put in a harness to force my head to look at the screen 🙂

Anyway, it turned out to be a sweet, charming, interesting story. It kind of reminded me of Forest Gump in the way Brad Pitt's chracter always tried to do the right thing, but it seems like they didn't know how to edit the movie (it was 2:30 long, should have been 1:30). It's about a baby that ages backwards- he's born old, they dies a baby. It really presented a lot of interesting situations 🙂

If you get a chance, check it out.

Yeah...I keep hearing the Forrest Gump reference. I kind of thought the same thing, but didn't think the movie was too long. It actually kept my attention pretty good. It wasn't anything like the last 30 minutes of Dark Knight where I kept looking at my watch.

Great flick! I had low expectations going in...my wife forced me too. But after watching it, I was like WTF... we need more original storylines like this!

9/10 - I may even buy it and that's rare outside of comedy/horror flicks.

Way too long, but still pretty good.
