Curious Case of Benjamin Button

Curious Case of Benjamin Button

This movie review will be the exact opposite of the Curious Case of Benjamin Button in everyway:  short and crappy vs long and good.

When I say that Benjamin Button is long, I’m not sure if you truly understand what I mean.  It clocks in at 2 hours and 47 minutes.  To me, that was just way too long.  I would say that the time starts to wear on you about halfway through the movie.  It could be that you start to understand the life of this movie will match that of Benjamin Button (Brad Pitt) and at this point he is still fairly young. The movie is good, but I think the length is just too much for me to overcome to state it is more than just good.  I was reminded of Forrest Gump because of the way the movie moves across different life events that shape the story.

[Rating:3.5/5]

This is pretty much what I’ve been hearing. Looks like a good one to rent and watch over the course of a few days.
