Curious Case...

So I went to see a movie with my hubby, sister and niece. The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. I was worried that it was going to be long and boring and cheesy. I was sort of right... but only about it being long.

I don't want to spoil anything for those who haven't seen it, so I won't go into too much detail. The basic plot (as described in all of the trailers) is that Benjamin's life is backwards... he's born old and as he grows up he gets younger - that didn't sound too interesting to me, but I was curious about all of the hype the movie was getting. It didn't hurt that Brad Pitt was in it either... not that he's on the top of my hunk list... LOL.

The film really leaves you thinking, and I still can't decide if I liked it or hated it. I think its a movie everyone should see at some point. I think it'll become a classic.

For more information, see the Wiki file (has spoilers) or this link to IMDB.
