Overrated, overlong, boring and plot-less.

Rating: 1/10 (31 May 2011)

I simply fail to understand how this boring and very 'hard-going' movie has managed to garner so many positive reviews. I had trouble staying awake! The whole idea of a person born an old-man-baby(?)and ultimately reverting back to a baby - but this time,an old-young-baby(?)Is the most puerile, pointless,laughable and unbelievable 'plot' I've ever come across.The write-ups claim that the film centres around a man who ages back-to-front, i.e. gets younger as time passes - instead, we have this mixed-up, silly premise In which an old looking baby becomes an adult, then reverts back to a 'REAL' baby - but who then dies presumably of old age! Quite how this project cost 150 million dollars to make Is beyond me, and I was left wondering on what,exactly,such a huge sum was spent? If you are considering watching this movie for the first time, I suggest that your time would be better spent watching paint dry - It would certainly be more entertaining.
