Is Benjamin Button any good?

Benjamin Button > Slumdog Millionaire. Slumdog was all hype.

Benjamin Button was good though..modern day forest gump.
 
It was good at curing my insomnia. Slow, boring, flick. I felt like I was watching a really bad version of Forrest Gump.
 
just watched it the other day. it was long and seemed to drag on at times but overall, its a good overall movie.
 
It's a good movie, but I can only watch it once. To damn long. But it is definetly a movie you should see at least once in your life.

I thought I was the only one! Everyone was telling me how great of a movie this was so I went and saw it in the theaters. That movie put me to sleep. It was soslow until the end. And no I didn't go into it expecting a action film or something, was just too slow and drawn out for me.
 
Very very good movie. I would recommend you see at least once. I'm probably going to cop it whenever I get my bluray situation back in order
 
I didn't feel like it dragged at all. Every part served a purpose in telling the overall story.
 
I used my free Monday redbox code on this based off this thread, well not entirely I love watching great films. I'll throw it on after the Denver game andsee what all the hype is about

Word 3 hours went by fast as hell for me. Best movie I've seen in a long time.
 
damn this movie has been sitting in my movies folder for awhile now, might give it a go sometime this week
 
watched it last night.. its a great movie but..

slumdog > benajmin button .. easy imo

maybe slumdog was overhyped but i saw it the weekend it came out here before lots of the hype and i loved it from start to finish.. epic
 
Slumdog sucks and has no message. It's just some kid's life story going from the hood to winning a gameshow where every question reflects a moment inhis life. Nice movie, but no. Like Cragmatic said the quotes from Benjamin Button and the overall message of it is miraculous.
