I think it had nothing to say and it was boring! Benjamin was only different from others and nothing else.he was different because he was born old and died young.. and his life was the reverse.

i thought the film had a very strong story line athought the length of the film and also the heartache shown in the film was too much!

I think it is the most boring movie ever. Benjamin had no emotion depth, and was just going about life. Someone please tell me the ending, I walked out of the theatre 1 hour in the movie.

It is truly a ‘Story’ unlike most of the films that are made today; like Forrest Gump and Big Fish. Beautiful.

True, its a great movie, its just that an hour or so of it could have been saved for extras on the DVD.

Yo John, I agree. I have only good things to say about this film but I walked out of there so tired and bored. I enjoyed the story but I felt like it never really stirred my emotions. I also have to say that my favorite stage of B.Button was played by, Peter Donald Badalamenti II, he played Button during the miracle in the church scene. I think his character was the most sincere and genuine. I liked him at that age. Also, I made the mistake of thinking it would be a good date film. But nooooo, it’s sucked all of our energy. But I still think people should see it. It’s like the Forest Gump of this decade but just falls short on entertainment value.

Thanks for allowing our comments.

I went in thinking I was going to see a movie about Love and life but the characters were drab and so was the script. Benjamin was not involving at all.

Just watched it myself last night and I feel the same way as John. I liked it but it was definitely way too long. And its not that I can’t handle long movies because I love Finchers’ Zodiac (2007) and that was a few minutes longer than Benjamin Button. Pitt was great as Button and Blanchett like always was superb as Daisy.
