Do as I say

I just know you've been dying to hear my personal view on whether you would like Benjamin Button.

If not, then I'll tell you anyway- epic, not Gump-lite (I hate that term anyway- if you're going to belittle things by comparing them unfavourably to other more or less similar things at least use real words) but slightly mis-sold.

It was almost overshadowed by the trailer for Gran Torino though- finally Hollywood has woken up to what audiences want to see: Clint Eastwood growling at 'the Chinese'. Maybe he should provide the Bat-voice- he'd do a better job than Bale.
