I cannot understand why so many people are underwhelmed by Benjamin Button. I thought it was an incredible film, moreso for the first half of the film before Benjamin finally gets together with Daisy. (Cate Blanchett was miscast for this movie; I couldn't stand her character). Watching it felt like reading a book you never wanted to end. Brad Pitt deserved more acclaim than he got for his work as Button. His voiceover and Louisianan accent were "poifect." I loved Captain Mike. I loved the guy who played Button's father. And Taraj Henson as Benjamin's mother was so touching. Yes, it's true--"you never know what's comin' for ya."
