When Apple first released Macs, almost at the same time portable devices such as iPod,iPhone, Apple TV, PSP, MP4 Player capable of playing videos and movies are most popular, the industry buzzed and consumers were extremely excited. The early birds rushed out to purchase them only to be disappointed that there was a limited number of videos available to download at the Internet.

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button Review

At once epic in scope and intimate in detail, David Fincher's THE CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON is certainly the director's most emotional film to date (though FIGHT CLUB and SEVEN don't offer much in the way of competition). Loosely based on an F. Scott Fitzgerald story, this romantic drama tells the tale of Benjamin Button (Brad Pitt), born in 1918 in New Orleans as a baby with wrinkles, cataracts, and arthritis. Benjamin will age backwards, getting younger as he watches those around him growing older. Included in that group are his adoptive mother, Queenie (Taraji P. Henson), and Daisy (Cate Blanchett), the love of his life whom he meets when she is just a little girl and he is an old man. They age in reverse, but despite Benjamin's globe-trotting adventures, their lives repeatedly intersect. The script from Oscar winner Eric Roth bears more than a few hallmarks in common with his earlier work on FORREST GUMP: both adaptations cross decades and continents. But BENJAMIN's script or even the fine acting aren't its most impressive accomplishment; the technology--both CGI and makeup--used to make Benjamin and Daisy age are remarkable, and makes the film entirely believable, but they're certainly aided by fine performances from both Pitt and Blanchett. The triumph of technology only serves to underscore the beauty of this film and of the love story at its heart.
If you want to play the movie on your portable devices, you could use the Video Converter for Mac, there is some other converter software for Mac users, such as 3GP Converter for Mac, AVI Converter for Mac, DAT Converter for Mac, VOB Converter for Mac, FLV Converter for Mac, MP4 Converter for Mac, M4V Converter for Mac, MPEG Converter for Mac, MOV Converter for Mac,etc.
