The curious case of Benjamin started at his birth; a very unusual one he meets Daisy from tender age and its the hope of been together that pushes them forward.

One troubling thing is the pedophile overtone that runs throughout the film.

A man who ages backwards will never be able to bond to another person in a truly meaningful way. We can barely be expected to return affection that isn't there.

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button leaves you colder than it should, and it shouldn't leave you cold at all.
August 16, 2011
One of the best half-movies of the year.

There are worse films than The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, and those 15 masterful minutes may well justify the price of admission. But there's a lot of movie before and after Swinton's cameo.

Everything sure is pretty, but I'm not sure this movie has anything to say.

With a running time of almost three slow-going hours, the movie definitely makes you feel as though you're aging forward.

Converts an F. Scott Fitzgerald short story about a man aging backward into an overly long exercise in pseudo-profundity bearing little resemblance to its source.

Fincher's visual mastery and Pitt's charisma almost compensate for a gimmick in search of a meaning. The more time Fincher gives viewers with Button, the thinner the character grows.
December 30, 2008
Mostly, the film is an orgy of excess, in which Fincher indulges his passion for luxuriant image-making, with little regard for whether the story merits (or can withstand) such grandiose treatment.
February 05, 2009
An epic, melancholic romance that employs a multi-generational cast and groundbreaking visual effects. It's a testament to Fincher's skill as a storyteller that the film actually works, albeit sporadically.
December 30, 2008
There's leisure to the storytelling, a splendor that captures the movie's celebratory but also melancholy ideas about our time on this mortal coil.
