The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.
Itching for some new films in the comfort of home, I bought some DVDs. Finally, sisters and me sat down to watch the first one on a relaxing Sunday evening. The show is very lengthy, 166 minutes. Christ's sake, it's so slow.... For half the duration, Brad Pitt is still old and wrinkly and I just couldn't wait to see the ending! The show is pretty predictable, not many surprise elements except for the part he went missing near the end. But well, we all know he'd come back, like in most movies. But it is interesting to see the little self in an old body and an old self hidden in the child... and to even have dementia when he's a kid. A nice perspective to see how the relationship works between Benjamin (Brad Pitt) and the beautiful woman, Daisy (Cate Blanchett).
My verdict: 3.5/5 (deducted 0.5 for being super slow)
