Great from start to finish. Characters were engaging. The music was perfect. The story surprising easy to follow considering the plot. Visuals were fantastic. Every shot was a masterpiece. Probably my favourite cinema experience this year. A must watch!
I enjoyed the film. But something told me I was meant to feel more when the credits rolled. What I mean by Forrest Gump 2.0 is that It takes you through the life of Benjamin (backwards), he lives an alright life, but then when his life becomes great... disaster. This could've been great with characters that were more likeable. Which I think is why I've rated Forrest Gump is 10/10 and Benjamin Button only a 7/10. This isn't to say it's not worth a watch but it just tries to be more that it is.
Usually Christopher Nolan movies are better the second time, but I'm not sure I want to sit through that for anther two and a half hours. There was basically music playing the entire time which wasn't appropriate for the situation.
