Amazing, fascinating, and absorbing story

Rating: 9/10 (4 January 2009)

I'm gonna keep this short as I don't write long messages but I see myself as a good critic when it comes to movies, and I must say that I could not keep my eyes away from the screen. With a running time of over 2hrs 30 mins a film needs to be something special to keep me entertained for that long and I was not disappointed. Brad Pitt was on top form and the direction of the movie was fantastic. The premise of someone born with the physicality of a dieing old man and growing younger over time was dealt with in such a beautiful way that you don't want it to finish, and emotions are triggered at several points in the movie. When you get the chance don't watch anything else, watch this. You will not regret it....trust me.
