A rich, beautiful, immersive but most of all moving film.

Rating: 10/10 (16 December 2009)

This film was a true delight and is certainly one of the best of this decade. The whole cast shines in their roles, with Pitt great as the enigmatic Benjamin, whilst Blanchett as Daisy is the epitome of beauty. Many other varied characters only add to the humorous yet sad story. The film carries a rich sense of nostalgia that makes the length of Benjamin's journey all the more believable. It's considerable runtime flies by in the enjoyment as the audience is swept through 100 years with wit, charm and flair. Even one year after seeing it in the cinema, many scenes still stick in my mind and I'd love to see again just to experience them again. After all, as Benjamin says, "Life isn't measured in minutes, but in moments."
