Just watched this and after all the mixed reviews I was a bit dubious. Glad to say it is a brilliant piece of film that is genuinely touching and well worth a look. The story of a man who ages backwards is really well done in my view, the story is well told and the effects of Brad Pitt's ageing are really well done. You know effects are good when you dont question what you see on the screen. It had been compared a bit to Forrest Gump and there is one line in it that is almost identical to one in the Gump movie. Look out for the scene in the cafe with a pregnant woman .. ;) .. And the "lightning guy" will raise a giggle .. :cool:
Women will love this. So if you are planning to butter the girlfriend or wife up for a romantic encounter this would be perfect. This film did make me think about the things you take for granted in life and it is undoubtedly sad at the end. It really is a film worth watching. And if you buy it on Blu Ray it is one of the very best examples of picture and sound quality I have seen so far.
Gets the Gene Hunt "Buy it or I will come round your house and stamp on all your toys" seal of approval.
