Movie Review: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

* * * _ _ - 3 / 5 stars

An interesting watch. One of the best movies of the year? No. The idea is pretty well done. The acting is reserved but interesting by the two main characters. The film feels fairy long. I understand that it has been compared to Forest Gump, however is not even in the same league in terms of quality. A good movie to watch if you want to waste away a lazy afternoon but I wouldn’t run out to the theaters to watch it. Lots of potential with this film but in the end it is a little lacking.
