Beautiful

Rating: 9/10 (11 January 2009)

I had been waiting for this movie for quite sometime as I am a huge David Fincher fan. This was unlike any of his other works I realized when I saw the first preview. My excitement dropped a little as i wasn't sure he could pull it off but boy was I wrong. The cinematography in this film was beautiful with the New Orleans backdrops and other areas, the story was very touching and sad with moments of great comic relief, the special effects were very well done as each age of Benjamin was recognizable as him but not overly done as you sit there thinking why does brad Pitt have a baby's body. This is also by far Brad Pitt's greatest acting achievement as he embody's the character and shows true emotion throughout with his subtle glances or facial movements. Overall this film is very highly recommended because in a film like this i don't know how much more you could ask for.
