The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

Posted February 19, 2009 in Movies by Did

Benjamin Button Another highly anticipated film at the Oscars on Sunday 22 February, it's The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (The curious case of Benjamin Button) by David Fincher with Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett. It exceeds even Slumdog Millionaire in number of appointments as it is in 13 categories that the film of David Fincher is expected.

Compared to its main rival, Benjamin Button was rather pleased with the professional critics and the public Slumdog Millionaire.

Again, I pass rapidly over the history. Benjamin Button is a man who is born "old" and that rejuvenates throughout his life, his great love crossing halfway through.

The story of Benjamin Button is original, it's the least we can say. Perhaps a bit too, because the logic gets lost! :-|

It is not advisable to read this passage if you have not seen the movie! The question that came to mind at the end of the film is is he going to shrink by rejuvenating a kid again? The answer is yes.

Yet it is born with a size baby but to look old. Then he grew normally as a child. As we age it becomes a baby, but this time with a young head. 8O

This man has been twice the size of a baby in her life. Not very logical! I love fantasy films yet, but here it does not stick.

Otherwise, it's actually a good movie. Fortunately, with all that talent together and a budget of $ 160 million (10 times more than Slumdog Millionaire). David Fincher always know very well play with the rays of light that dominated the whole atmosphere of Seven. :-)

Average IMDb: 8.3 / 10. My rating: 6/10.

Yep, I want to see an old baby, but an old baby there either! I also removed points for length, 2:40 not always exciting. Far from the masterpiece I hoped.

Appointment Sunday to see what comes out of the Oscars Academy holds.

    I have the same view ... in the end I was quite disappointed and I was expecting better, the film is long although the story interesting.
    It is on that if one seeks a logic in the film, it will be even more disappointed ... I enjoyed against by the staging, sets and found the image as you say in Seven: p
    I'm a bit more lenient than you on this one with a 6.5 / 10 for a movie that will not leave me a lasting memory.

    Well, we fully agree. ;-)

    Especially if you take your point because you can note that with integers on Imdb. : D
