Book & Review Forums: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

Not what I expected..

2 out of 5

I thought it was ok, it was a fast read and such a short story. I thought it would be longer but I think I was expecting it to be this lengthy long story...it was completely different from the movie. I'd have to say that I liked the movie better even though, I know some will disagree. There was so much more drama added in with the movie..I still suggest that you all read it. It was short and fast read. I gave it a 2/5.

  • I've heard that the book is better than the movie, although the movie is supposed to be really good as well. I'm looking forward to both viewing and reading the book, so thank you for your opinion.

  • It was just a short story. The movie was only loosely based on it. I rather hope the movie will be better.
