View my review for The Curious Case of Benjamin Button Here.

In short: I loved it. So. Much. Not a perfect movie by any means, but an experience.

Someone find me icons!

Also, Burn After Reading-- better (and more hilarious) on second viewing. Brad Pitt is really quite fabulous....

Hee, Burn After Reading. "You think it's a Schwinn!"

Hmmm, for whatever I am just not interested in seeing Benjamin Button. Like, not at all. I don't know?

Burn is so goofy, but I adored it. The Coens are just brilliant.

Sometimes I think they're too brilliant, and make me feel like an idiot watching their movies because sometimes I just don't get them. But, Burn After Reading was my favorite of theirs.

Maybe you're not looking forward to it enough to put up with the length, so that's discouraging you even more, which is understandable. But, it is pretty moving, or at least I thought so... It's one of those movies that I went into expecting to be simply entertained and came out feeling differently about my life.

I totally agree. I was shocked at how much I liked it. And I'll have to buy BAR and give it a second watch because I loved that too!

[just_float]

Exactly! Button was one of those movies that I went into expecting to be simply entertained and came out feeling differently about my life.

ooh those are both movies i want to see! burn after reading came out in france (in the theater two dors down from my house) my last week there, and i've been dying to see it. hm.

[just_float]

You have to see both! BAR is on DVD now, so that should be easy to check out. But, first chance you get, you should try to drag a friend to Ben Button!

[biscottimoments]

i will! but i wouldn't be against seeing it by myself either :)

[just_float]

;) You'll have to let me know what you think

I wish Burn After Reading was 90% Brad Pitt dancing around and 10% other stuff lol.
