Yesterday I got word they were screening an "Untitled" film on the Paramount
lot. Thought maybe it was "Star Trek" or "Eagle Eye" and I was excited to see
either of those movies so I headed over to check it out. Imagine my surprise
when it turned out to be something I hadn't even expected: "The Curious Case
of Benjamin Button."
There was the usual rap about the film not being finished but the FX looked
pretty much done to me, though there was one scene where the rain needed to
be added. I'll get back to the FX and CGI later though.
The film starts off around the 1920s as Pitt/Button is born as an old-looking
baby. From there we progress through history as he ages backwards. While he's
in his 20s (they don't say exactly how old he is), he's assigned to a tug
boat in WWII and there's a war scene (glimpsed in the trailer) that's
probably my favorite in the entire film. I won't bother getting into too much
of the plot because it's pretty self-explanatory. What I can say though is
that while on the surface it's about Benjamin Button aging backwards and
Daisy (Cate Blanchett) aging normally, it mainly deals with how to pick
yourself up and find new meaning in life no matter where you are at in life.
Pitt is the catalyst for people to do this throughout the story.
Though the bulk of the story takes place when he and Blanchett are
middle-agish, the aging effect is pretty flawless on Pitt. Enhancements
aside, the acting was superb all around. It was the most subdued I think I
have ever seen Pitt in a movie. Blanchett was excellent and will probably get
an Oscar nod along with Pitt.
It really didn't feel like a Fincher flick. If I had to compare it to
something else I'd say it's FORREST GUMP meets BIG FISH meets THE NOTEBOOK.
The story is simple but doesn't feel too simple. Guy goes from older to
younger. It just tells his tale. It's absolutely one not to miss later this
year.
*******
After reading this guy's thoughts, I rewatched the trailer and I'm even more
excited to see the movie than I was before. I mean those effects look pretty
amazing and that's just the trailer. If anyone else out there was lucky
enough to check it out last night, do us all a favor and let us know your
thoughts as well! BENJAMIN BUTTON opens in theaters this Christmas.
