    The Curious Case of Benjamin Button – Quick Review 

    On a previous version of janella.com…

    …when I would write a movie review it would long. Time is short, so my new movie reviews – when I have a chance to watch a movie – will be short. It won’t be extremely insightful, but it will convey what I feel about the movie.

    For The Curious Case of Benjamin Button:

    Brad and Cate

    Brad Pitt grows young while Cate Blanchett grows old. Acting done well by both, and Fincher’s direction was spot on. But the ending left me unsatisfied.

    Grade: C-

    Mr. & Mrs. Smith 

    Mr. & Mrs. Smith

    Rating: *** out of five

    Quick shot: Boy and girl meet. Boy and girl get married. Boy and girl are spies for competing agencies and don’t know it. Boy and girl must kill each other, or die trying. Will this have a happy ending?

    What I liked about the movie: Good action – gun play, hand-to-hand combat, and car chases. Good chemistry between Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. Fair and snappy dialog.

    What I didn’t like: The distracting choice of hand held camera movement during some quiet moments during the film. The latter third of the film had issues resolved suddenly.

    Overall a good matinee movie.
