This movie was extremely interesting and original. I couldn't stop thinking about it when it ended. It was very well done.

I highly recommend this film to anyone who enjoys "what-if" scenarios. David Fincher did an outstanding job directing this intriguing story. The small but important part of the narration was done by the old and dying heroin who was difficult to understand. As a result I was left with the feeling that I had missed some of the details in the chronological sequence of Benjamin Button's life. Overall, it's a movie well worth watching.

Very interesting movie. Very strange at times and extremely slow during the last third of the movie. Thought it was odd that the daughter of benjamin had no questions or thought is was odd that he grew younger as he aged. It is one I could not watch again, but don't regret I saw it.

While the premise to this movie and the storyline itself is quite interesting the movie itself is dark, slow, depressing, and boring. The way the movie is made sucks the life out of the entire storyline. If I had to think of one single word to describe this movie it would be "tedious". Very dissapointing.

This has to be one of the worst movies I have ever seen. It was extremely long and very, very boring. The concept was intriguing but the execution failed miserably.
