What Peoples Said About The Curious Case of Benjamin Button Film:
This movie is in my top 10 movie list in life. It is a cinema achievement that may never be outdone by 'anyone'. Considering that this masterpiece was shot digitally in 2007, it is miles above any CG effort since. For those of you that haven't seen it: "SEE IT". Besides a great story (with one flaw), this film makes illusion and simulation become reality. The one flaw: I have great respect for David Fincher, and I am going to go out on a limb and say that he must have been aware of this discrepancy, but went ahead with the story-line as written anyway. ( I hope that's the case). Benjamin Button was born "old", and regressed backwards to die an infant. The flaw in the story-line (and it's a big one), is that as he regresses to youth, he begins to have dementia (Alzheimer's symptoms), along with all of the arthritic pains and problems an old man gets as he ages. At the end, before he dies he loses his memory completely. Logically, since he was born an old man, those illnesses should have evolved from birth, and improved as he regressed in age. Strangely in the film, he is born with severe arthritis, and can't even walk until he is 7. Why then would he again experience these same symptoms as a child on the way to his death bed (or crib)? He should be in perfect health as a child, and regress to a "fetus", and then disappear. Other than that major flaw, this movie is a 10. Unfortunately because of the illogical way he dies, I had to give it a 9 out of 10 stars. One other issue with the plot: If we were to take this movie scenario and try to place it in the real world, Benjamin would have to have been born a "full sized", old man, and then after 70 or 80 years, he would have begun to shrink. Since the idea of a woman giving birth to a full sized man is physically impossible, our Benjamin had to be born old and "tiny". This of course is another contradiction in the plot, since Benjamin is small "twice in his life". We can't dwell on this flaw at all, because if we did we would never get passed it. To enjoy this movie, we must put all the facts and logistics of this scenario aside, and when we do, this movie takes us on a journey unlike any other ever filmed.
One of Fincher's masterworks--though I like others better. He's definitely one of the only people alive who could have succeeded with this very intriguing story. There are moments--when Benjamin's coming into his own, both with Tilda Swinton's character and with Cate Blanchett's--that are amongst the finest and most invigorating I have ever seen in cinema. I'm curious how I'll find it when I rewatch it in a few years. I have the impression that as I come to terms with age and gather more wisdom in my own skin, this story will only grow in my heart and appreciation--for both the highs and the lows. That is a spectacular magic trick for a movie to do--and Fincher's downright full of them.
Here are some translations about the movie:
حالة بنجامين بوتون الغريبة
لا تُقاس الحياة بالدقائق ، بل باللحظات.
ولد بنجامين باتون في ظروف غير عادية ، وظهر كرجل مسن في دار لرعاية المسنين في نيو أورلينز وأعمار في الاتجاه المعاكس. بعد اثني عشر عامًا من ولادته ، يلتقي ديزي ، الطفلة التي تدخل وتخرج من حياته عندما تكبر لتصبح راقصة. على الرغم من أن لديه كل أنواع المغامرات غير العادية على مدار حياته ، إلا أن علاقته مع ديزي ، والأمل في أن يجتمعوا معًا في الوقت المناسب ، هو ما يدفع بنيامين إلى الأمام.

Der seltsame Fall des Benjamin Button
Du weißt nie, was dich erwartet...
Benjamin Button, der zu Zeiten des 1.Weltkriegs auf die Welt kommt ist nicht wie jedes andere Baby, er erblickt das Licht der Welt mit dem Gesicht eines Greises. Und während er innerlich heranwächst, wird sein Körper mit der Zeit immer jünger. Damit will sein Vater nach dem Tod seiner Mutter im Kindbett nichts zu tun haben und setzt den Jungen aus, doch seine Finderin Queenie nimmt ihn stattdessen auf, wo der Junge in einem Altersheim unter seinesgleich (zumindest optisch) heranwächst. Dort begegnet er auch der jungen Daisy, die die große Liebe seines Lebens werden soll, doch Benjamins junger Geist steckt in einem alten Körper und es steht zu befürchten, daß er als körperlich junger Mann schon von geistigem Verfall befallen sein wird. Button zieht in die Welt hinaus in dem Bewußtsein, daß er nur an einem Punkt in seinem Leben mit Daisy auf einer Höhe sein wird - doch das ist kein Grund, ein Leben nicht zu leben...

Keista Bendžamino Batono istorija
Pasakojimas apie žmogų, gimusį senuku ir kasmet jaunėjančiu. Filme seksime jo gyvenimo istoriją, prasidėjusią Naujajame Orleane I-ojo Pasaulinio karo pabaigoje 1918-aisiais ir atlydėsime iki XXI-ojo amžiaus. Seksime istoriją, kuri bus ir keista, ir neįprasta, ir jaudinanti - per visą gyvenimą, kuris tikrai neprimena nei vieno iš mūsų gyvenimo. Gal viskas nebūtų taip sudėtinga, jei būdamas 50-ies Bendžaminas Batonas nebūtų sutikęs ir pamilęs žavios 30-metės. Du žmonės susieja savo gyvenimus, bet jų laimingai pabaigai nėra jokios galimybės.

Загадочная история Бенджамина Баттона
«Я родился при странных обстоятельствах»
Фильм о мужчине, который родился в возрасте 80 лет, а затем… начал молодеть. Этот человек, как и каждый из нас, не мог остановить время. Его путь в ХХI век, берущий свое начало в Новом Орлеане в 1918 году в самом конце Первой Мировой войны, будет столь необычен, что вряд ли мог иметь место в жизни кого-либо другого. Фильм повествует о судьбе уникального человека, о людях и событиях, что ждут его впереди, о любви, которую он обретет и потеряет, о радостях жизни и грусти потерь и о том, что остается с нами вне времени.
