2. Summary

   Very Good 3.5

   A great story that leaves you wanting to find out more about Mr. Button – who is a curious case indeed. Blockbuster stars and a great supporting cast help keep an otherwise movie that drags on from falling too flat. A special bravo for making an otherwise unbelievable fable from marring the top notch acting.

4. Acting

   Great 4.0

   First rate performances from Pitt and Blanchett. Pitt seems to just naturally fit the bill whithout working too hard at it, but Blanchett struts her stuff in the way that only she can. All of the supporting cast did an admirable job. Too many to mention.

5. Male Stars Great 4.0

6. Female Stars Great 4.0

7. Female Costars Great 4.0

8. Male Costars Great 4.0

10. Film

    Very Good 3.5

    A ding for dragging on too long, but otherwise well delivered blend of fantasy, period peice, dramatic flair, and good old fashioned storytelling. Compelling cinematography and great makup on Pitt!
