One for the ages

Rating: 10/10 (5 July 2009)

There's not much to say. I loved this movie with great performances by both Brat Pitt and Cate Blanchett and also Taraji P. Henson, who was great as Benjamin's 'mother'. The special effects and the make up department are great and the directing is superb, overall it is the best movie of 2008.
The story is about a boy called Benjamin Button who is born as an old man and gets younger, and gets raised in a retirement home by Queenie.
This movie would have deserved all the Oscars it was nominated for especially best picture, best director and best actor in a leading role, adding to the ones it won, although Slumdog Millionaire was a great movie too.
The best movie of the decade.
