The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (2008)
I actually really liked it and thought it was too short (almost 3 hours). A strong 9.

Absolutely stunning and mind blowing visual effects. The level of detail is unheard of. I can't imagine how much work was put into this movie - it seems impossible to create. The story, on the other hand, is a lot more mediocre and the movie is way too long - almost 3 hours. The end result, therefore, is definitely not a 10.

Wow. Worst sci-fi/comicbook movie I've ever watched. And btw, the blue penises were indeed absolutely unneeded and only added insult to injury. Fuck you, Zack Snyder.

If I wanted to watch a drama, I would have turned on ABC. If I wanted some standup comedy, I would have turned on HBO. The joke is on me for not knowing Funny People is 2.5 hours long.

What the hell, Dustin Hoffman? I want my 92 minutes back! There was absolutely nothing, NOTHING in this movie that hasn't been in every other chick flick bullshit movie - it's more than predictable. I'd like to feel about about the heart attack thing but I was kind of glad.

Very, very entertaining, with moments of gayness (no offense to all gay people!) that are immediately wiped by the awesomeness of destruction in the new scenes. Even the fucked up final scene was awesome'd by total annihilation.

If you can understand Russian, you have to see this 14 episode TV mini-series is absolute brilliance, and the more you can relate to Jewish life in Odessa, the better the humor. The music, the acting, the plot - everything is just 10/10.
