After months of hearing about this famous Movie,
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button,
I finally Watched this MOVIE in CINEMA as noted by most.
And yes, it's no wonder why it was Nominated in Oscar for best motion
picture and for many other.
To start off, Brad Pitt did a great job acting as Benjamin Button.
He deserved being nominated for best leading role actor.
The story-line was based on the book written by F. Scott Fitzgerald,
there was a good start of the movie where it started
of how an old woman at the hospital told about the clock
that was created to move backwards in a train station,
she also asked her daughter Caroline to read a diary [Benjamin's Diary],
and thus the story about the life of Benjamin Button started.
It had a good interpretation of the story. Overall it's a movie
that should not be missed. It tells about a person [benjamin button],
growing backwards. He was born an old man and grew younger
as he aged. His mum died giving birth to him leaving him to his dad.
His dad left him at an old folks home thinking that the baby [benjamin]
was a monster because of the wrinkles which he does look like ET.
The visual effects were great from the start. He grew up, watching people he love
die before him day by day. He was often mistaken for his age and
slowly learn about life by various people. There was this girl however,
that found him different and knew that his age was not how he look.
He fell in love with that girl. Growing up, they went through hard and good times
but still kept in touch with one another. Later in the movie,
they found their love for each other. Which was a rather touching story
and I do not deny that I shed tears upon watching the movie.
This story will touch your heart I gurantee it. Despite being a movie about a man's life
it had quite a number of humorous scenes and lines,
which you can laugh your head off.
Well don't wanna be a movie spoiler, you should go watch it in the BIG SCREEN
yourself. The actor and actress did a good job and
so did the director, make-up artists, visual effects team was something
to give credit for.
