It looked CGI to me, but it was indeed good. In the closing credits it listed who played Benjamin from when to when and there were two, I think, that played him when his was younger (old man).

I thought it was good. Pitt's name helped sell the movie and I think he did a good enough job.
Did they show the 7th lightning strike? I only remember 6. I figured it might be a after credits thing.

Love the movie. Couldn't understand a few character's accents and thought it was a bit long, but it was nice being transported and getting lost in this tale. The lightning man made me laugh every time. Never bothered counting the # of strikes.

Great film, although there are some inconsistancies. It reminds of of a film with Tim Roth, Youth Without Youth, which had a similar premise. Both films really make you think. The only thing I didn't like was adolescent Pitt at the piano. The cgi was great, but the lack of any of it for that scene ruined some of it. He looked nothing like Pitt.
I think it was only 6 too. I also thought the 7th might be after the credits (after I left of course).

Nope, there was nothing after the credits.
I liked it too. The story was a good one, and it rolled along nicely. Couldn't have given a hoot about the CGI. What I saw looked presentable and wasn't glaringly obvious.
I thought he should have, died a big baby, as well.

This is quite possibly the movie of the year for me, and it also made me cry like a baby because so many things in it brought in recent life events. Few movies touch me as this did and I can easily understand why it's receiving the rave reviews. Everyone should do themselves a favor and go see it.

I saw this with my wife on saturday and we both loved it, just an all around fantastic movie. I thought Pitt and Blanchett's performances were great, but the most notable to me was Taraji P. Henson's (Benjamin's Mom), she was great and is truly worthy of her Oscar Nomination. I loved the story and Fincher captured every moment perfectly IMO, there aren't many movies I can say I enjoyed from beginning to end but this is definitely one of them. I can't wait to own this on Blu-Ray.

On attack of the show they had a side by side comparison of this movie and Forrest Gump. I think they grabbed the clip from youtube. I haven't seen button, but it sound slike they are very alike.

I saw this today and the ending kinda caught me by surprise, I expected to see him younger but to see a kid with senile dementia was tragic
1st 150+min film in awhile that didn't feel like a 150+min film
