Born under unusual circumstances, Benjamin Button springs into being as an elderly man in a New Orleans nursing home and ages in reverse. Twelve years after his birth, he meets Daisy, a child who flits in and out of his life as she grows up to be a dancer. Though he has all sorts of unusual adventures over the course of his life, it is his relationship with Daisy, and the hope that they will come together at the right time, that drives Benjamin forward.

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
Allison Davies
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Lucia Ayala
It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
Freeman
This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

-186503Tells the story of Benjamin Button, a man who starts aging backwards with bizarre consequences. The Curious Case of Benjamin Button is i believe one of the first films that started this whole de-aging thing with actors since we see a baby Brad Pitt old, then somewhere around his 50s and then he is like 20 something years old and the technology that was used in the film was quite marvelous to say the least since it really worked quite well. The story is also very interesting and despite the almost 3 hour mark you never really get bored, the perfomances from both Pitt and Blanchett were very good and powerful and as for Fincher's direction? It was really good, definitely see it. (A+)

I think the idea of a man being born old and growing up while his body becomes younger is pretty good. I would love if this would have happened to me! Yet it seems that with this brilliant idea and incredibly long movie they could have done more than they did.The main part of the movie is the relationship between Daisy and Benjamin. And both actors do amazing job. While the make up for this movie is stunning, this is not the only thing that makes Benjamin Buttons great, Brad Pitt's acting is a part of it. So is Cate Blanchett. There are some beautiful scenes between them. Yet I don't get some things. I somehow can't believe that he loved her since he left her with the child. The reason doesn't make sense to me.
