Excellent craft

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button is excellent craft paired with emotional nuance. The film isn't overtly thrilling (some might even find it boring), but it contemplates heavy subjects with precise presentation. The story covers the memoirs of a man who ages backwards and, consequently, considers themes of change, fate, and loss from a new perspective. Brad Pitt's acting feels slightly monotonous, but that's because his outcast character is guarded. Plus, the remaining cast (specifically Blanchett, Henson, and Harris) counters Pitt's reserved manner with lively personalities. Their strong believability is key because these relationships are the film's core.

Meanwhile, Fincher provides another technically flawless film. Benjamin Button is an ambitious project and the filmmaking rises to the challenge. The visuals are incredibly suggestive, using lighting, motion, framing, and color to subtly enhance physical and emotional atmospheres. The sound is rich with weather, city life, and conflict. The music elegantly sets the eras and tones. The aging effects are an elaborate highlight of the film. Lastly, the production design is vast, detailed, and multifaceted. Overall, these aspects elevate Benjamin Button beyond drama and into art. It may not entertain everyone, but this film will challenge all viewers to grow.
