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.

Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
Gary The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
marri-dumbadze One of the best movies ever made!! just watch.. effects acting and everything is fantastic
ElliesWonder Excellent one. Everything is well packed, from plots to characters, from backgrounds to music, everything is terrific! No wonder this movie won so many awards over countries.I found a spoiler summarized video on Facebook earlier, although the video had told the story in general, but the movie still caught my attention and attracted me to watch. I was so glad that I watched this piece, its script is just wonderful, there are many thoughtful quotes from the screen, so many messages can be interpreted.This film is highly recommended.Also, after I finished this movie, personally that was interesting to know Brad Pitt once interpreted to these many quality script movies in the past. He was not a person in my generation, what I knew about him earlier were all about his affair, and the story with Angelina Jolie, and their movie Mr. and Mrs. Smith. This movie really changed my impression of Brad Pitt.
heyitstom-12234 Best documentary I have ever watched. It was incredibly informative. It was very intriguing and I'm amazed how far science has come. I cannot express how fascinating this film is. Mr. Button's case is inspiring, telling, and an excellent learning experience. It can be hard what others undergo for the sake of science. Very intriguing. 10/10
kamna-46423 Brad Pitt's character was born with a congenital disorder, He struggled to be an ordinary person despite his adverse circumstances. Brad Pitt is adequate but not really outstanding. I'm not the biggest Brad Pitt fan but I thought he was dignified and showed his experience in this film, but it was not a breathtaking performance. The other main role (Rose) played by Cate Blanchett lacked emotion at times. This sadly resulted in the chemistry between her and Button to be minimal. I couldn't see the love between them. Overall, I thought it was a nice watch including some amazing and incredible visual, make-up effects, specially when Pitt was made to look about 10 years younger than he is now. But it won't be considered as an absolute classic. It is a beautiful film externally but fails to come up with a strong, evident message. I couldn't hate this film, because I enjoyed it, but I couldn't love it either, because this should have been much much more.
