Excellent movie!
It looks like an incredible movie. Classic for sure. I'll see either this or Gran Torino in the next couple days.

Me and the wife went and saw it yesterday. Definitely one of the best movies I've seen in a long time.

I found it very Forrest Gump-ish in its delivery.

Good film.

My only problem with it is that when he was born, he was old....had diseases associated with age (cataract, arthritis, etc).....but as a child he gets dementia...a disease associated with age.  For me, its a small but obvious issue.

It was his body that grew younger.  His mind aged normally, I believe.
