the curious case of benjamin button be a film unlike any i have ever see and probably ever will . a true epic that leave me utterly speechless . it accomplish so much through such simplicity . everything be top notch from the elegant directing to the subtly wonderful performance down to the magical score . the film demand you to feel not only for the death we witness and but for the incredible life we discover . it pray on the obvious morality issue we all deal with but also dangle the idea in front of u that everyone go through the same joy and grievance and just not in the same way . this be a momentous tale that deserve nothing less than the title of brilliance . this visually and emotionally rich movie recall the life of a very peculiar man bear in the early 20th century who age backwards . his tale unfolds through a diary read by the daughter of his love and daisy . throughout life he go through the same thing we do and grow up and eventually grow old . he a thoughtful observer and discover life from all different angle . but it be not his life that make him unique . his love be what make him special . he spend a lifetime try to understand how his love for daisy work and still only get a few incredible year really love her . a their life tell u and the year of frustration and hardship be all worth it if only for a few moment of happiness . the direction in the film be almost flawless . hopefully and benjamin button will garner david fincher the recognition he deserve . he wind this clock so well and with such grace that the movie have this undeniable flow that be enjoyable from start to finish . at nearly 3 hour and there be not a minute waste . every shot be jaw drop and while some will find issue with the time and it be use wisely . the acting be also a thing of wonder . this be by far brad pitt best performance . he be so believable and realistic throughout . his nuance be spot on and despite the heavy use of make up and cgi use to portray his character and it be pitt who make benjamin that much more curious . i leave the theater astonish that some one could review this movie badly . it be an extremely graceful depiction of life and love and and the thing we lose . after so much anticipation i be certainly not disappointed . this movie be probably not for everyone though . it not your average drama that spoon feed it audience their emotion . it be something of awe and astonishment and an absolute gem . what make our life memorable be the moment we never seem to grasp long enough before let go . life in itself be indeed very and very curious and benjamin button be no less of a wonder .
