The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (2008)

Movie Review: "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" (2008)Presumingly reveived somewhere in 1920s as magical short story by exceptional writer F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896-1940) then in highly-detailed work adapted by screenwriter Eric Roth with regard to David Fincher directing, attracting Cate Blanchett as Daisy and Brad Pitt as Benjamin, the man, who gets cursed by his father of aging younger from old child man at a lovely African-American-lady-led senior home to have the time of his life as a boatsman and first love encountering character of Elizabeth, portrayed with grace and midnight-splendors at an abandoned hotel's kitchen in order to teach the ways of love to be with his beloved "Daisy" at the high-pitching mid-ages in Benjamin's lively years of the 40s.Technical motion-capturing achievement put actor Brad Pitt in the state of being able to play all ages within Benjamin Button's journey, which shares visual splendor ingnited in a digital as 35mm filmstock capturing mix by cinematographer Claudio Miranda, when "Benjaming Button" stays emotionally strong due to wishful thinking of a neverending dream of a motion picture, where values and the vanity of life rules every scene so beautifully arranged by editors Kirk Baxter & Angus Wall that director David Fincher shines as visionary filmmaking in 13-times Academy-Award-nominated high-society Hollywood class of a motion picture carried out for distribution by two Hollywood majors Warner Bros. and Paramount Pictures with supreme veteran producing partners Kathleen Kennedy & Frank Marshall realized a legendary piece of cinema to be encounter again and again.Supporting roles rule with up-and-coming cast members Taraji P.

evergreen.can't describe in words , one have to watch to see the beauty of expression.the way it shapes frame by frame its beautiful , doesn't disappoint in any part of the film. watched many times which i can't remember how many times, every time seemed to be watching first time.its rare occasions when film impress me. deep and meaningful. peaceful masterpiece.

Best documentary I have ever watched. It was incredibly informative. It was very intriguing and I'm amazed how far science has come. I cannot express how fascinating this film is. Mr. Button's case is inspiring, telling, and an excellent learning experience. It can be hard what others undergo for the sake of science. Very intriguing. 10/10

Brad Pitt's character was born with a congenital disorder, He struggled to be an ordinary person despite his adverse circumstances. Brad Pitt is adequate but not really outstanding. I'm not the biggest Brad Pitt fan but I thought he was dignified and showed his experience in this film, but it was not a breathtaking performance. The other main role (Rose) played by Cate Blanchett lacked emotion at times. This sadly resulted in the chemistry between her and Button to be minimal. I couldn't see the love between them. Overall, I thought it was a nice watch including some amazing and incredible visual, make-up effects, specially when Pitt was made to look about 10 years younger than he is now. But it won't be considered as an absolute classic. It is a beautiful film externally but fails to come up with a strong, evident message. I couldn't hate this film, because I enjoyed it, but I couldn't love it either, because this should have been much much more.
