The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (2008)

Good, if a bit long movie. Pitt is perhaps the Achilles heel in way because he plays himself, the pretty boy, and the movie over-emphasizes this conceit. I'd say the story falls apart a bit at the end where it needed a bit more craftsmanship. Still, a pretty diverting and enjoyable movie.

Something strange about this movie is that everyone in it loves in a very selfless way. This seems unrealistic.
