Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
An epic, melancholic romance that employs a multi-generational cast and groundbreaking visual effects. It's a testament to Fincher's skill as a storyteller that the film actually works, albeit sporadically.
– Tom Huddlestone,
Time Out,
5 Feb 2009
rotten:
With a running time of almost three slow-going hours, the movie definitely makes you feel as though you're aging forward.
– Peter Rainer,
Christian Science Monitor,
2 Jan 2009
rotten:
Mostly, the film is an orgy of excess, in which Fincher indulges his passion for luxuriant image-making, with little regard for whether the story merits (or can withstand) such grandiose treatment.
– Scott Foundas,
Village Voice,
30 Dec 2008
fresh:
There's leisure to the storytelling, a splendor that captures the movie's celebratory but also melancholy ideas about our time on this mortal coil.

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button leaves you colder than it should, and it shouldn't leave you cold at all.
