Jamey-Maria Posted December 27, 2008 Report Posted December 27, 2008 (edited) The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. My god the first half of it was boring, I was so, so close to falling asleep. But boy did it pick up. I do like romance stories but I absolutely detest cringeworthy ott crap ones *cough* cheesiness in the notebook style *cough* but the romance in this movie single handedly made it awesome. It was really touching and so nice to watch. I think it was even longer than Australia though, but I'm glad it was lengthy. Lots of movies try to show the duration of someone's life and cut so much out by trying to cram it all of it into an hour and a half- this movie didn't. The cinematography was stunning as well. I give it an 8. I'd give it a 10 if the first half hadn't seemed so pointless but in hindsight it did set a lot groundwork for the rest of the film. I saw the preview for Revolutionary Road before the movie started too. Kate Winslet and Leonardo DeCaprio reunited! EEE- can't wait to see that one. Edited December 27, 2008 by Jamey-Maria Quote
Symphony Posted December 27, 2008 Report Posted December 27, 2008 Tried to watch Wall-E when we got in on Christmas Day, but boy was it boring! My sister fell asleep, and I turned it off after he got zapped up into space. Very disappointed! Quote

Lise Posted December 28, 2008 Report Posted December 28, 2008 So...I went to see Twilight and I loved it. Kind of, almost, makes me want to read the books. I wanna go see Australia, too. Oh, and Revolutionary Road, Kate and Leo Quote
Yankee White Posted December 28, 2008 Report Posted December 28, 2008 The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. A bit tedious at the start, but it all built the film. They made 45 year old Brad Pitt, look 20. 8.5/10 Quote
Symphony Posted December 29, 2008 Report Posted December 29, 2008 So...I went to see Twilight and I loved it. Kind of, almost, makes me want to read the books. I wanna go see Australia, too. Oh, and Revolutionary Road, Kate and Leo Australia is fabulous - put that next on your list. I totally DIDNT want to go see it; am SO glad I did Quote
Lise Posted December 29, 2008 Report Posted December 29, 2008 ^ Thank you, Symphony. I think I will go and see it in the next couple of days. I'm not a Nicole Kidman fan but there's just something about it that makes me want to watch it, maybe it's Hugh Jackman? Quote
-Emily- Posted December 29, 2008 Report Posted December 29, 2008 The Golden Compass, is brilliant. Although its a triology and the first one. So I`m waiting for the next movie. Quote
