Summary: GREAT MOVIE, WONDERFUL LOVE STORY!!!
Review: When I first saw the publicity that it was being given, I was very reluctant to watch it. It didn't spark any interest in me. One day I had to go in late and close at work so I was resting earlier on and had time to kill. (At least 3 hrs)So I decided to give it a chance. I was so moved by this movie! How could you not feel the magic between Pitt and Forlani when they walked away from each other at the coffee shop? This movie shows the awesome power of love and loss. Anthony Hopkins is wonderful as always, and he portrays a man that knows he has little time left in this world. And like most people, he wants to make things right before he goes. It will open your eyes to the amazing ability to love and sacrifice yourself for it. Death is portrayed wonderfully by Pitt. He is unfamiliar with how many things work in the world. Although he doesn't know it at first, he himself will succumb to the power of love.It is a must see, there have been few movies that take your heart and emotions on such a ride. If you have any belief in soul mates, destiny, or love...it will touch you!

Summary: One of this century's best!
Review: What a delightful surprise! From the previews, I was not expecting much... I even postponed watching it until it came out on video and I had nothing better to do. It was late, and I worried over the extra running time, but boy was I surprised. Anthony Hopkins is by far one of the most talented actors ever, and Brad Pitt has finally won me over with this one. We live in a very fast paced age and most of today's movies leave me thinking surely they could have developed the story line better. And finally this one did. I applaud Martin Brest for going up against critics and giving the viewers something to cling to. Without a doubt, if you have any kind of sensitivity or desire to live and love, you will love this movie.

Summary: One of the best films of the year
Review: This movie is an extrodinary story about Death coming to take a man who's turning 65,and gives him a warning of it, and time. Death also falls in live withe the mans daughter. This is a great movie with great acting and should have been nominated for "BEST PICTURE."

Summary: A matter of opinion
Review: The simple fact is that some people will adore this movie and that some will hate it. There's very little room for a middle ground but I urge everyone to take a chance anyway because if you're one of the many who loves this movie it'll stay with you always.

Summary: Self-indulgent and interminable.
Review: I fail to see why this film has captured so many people's attention. Horrible pacing (3 hours? It's called "editing;" try it) and shoddy characterization don't go a long way to create a memorable drama. A couple minor characters have a few good lines. Pitt is tolerable, at times even effective, but overall the viewer can't get close enough to the film to care. And it's not just that it's bloated at three hours running time. Long movies are fine if they deliver the goods and merit the viewer's investment. Long movies that could be trimmed back by 45 or 50 minutes--but AREN'T--are usually turkeys. I mean, what WAS that "love scene" between Pitt and Forlani (forlorn)?? Felt like forever and they both looked like they shot heroin during it. If I want that, I'll rent Permanent Midnight (a much better flick). Sheesh. Maybe with a couple casting changes this could have been fun. How about Richard Beltzer (Homicide) as Death and Roseanne as Susan Parrish? NOW all those peanut butter scenes will have some verve! No mas.

Summary: Brest Ever
Review: Meet Joe Black is now my favorite movie of all time,it stirred up emotions that I haven't felt watching any other movie. Was it 3 hours? It could have gone on forever for me. Brad Pitt was brilliant to all the naysayers who now want to knock Brad down. Don't you wish you were as good looking and talented too.

Summary: A Movie I will watch again, and again
Review: I read everyone's reviews and the haunting theme thru the movie just got to me I enjoyed all the actors they were truly hand-picked for their rolls. But the music will ALWAYS get to me

Summary: Excellent Movie
Review: After viewing this film I must say that I enjoyed everything about it. The storyline was great and the acting was admirable. The chemistry between Pitt's and Forlani's characters was incredible. This is demonstrated not so much in words spoken as it is in the eye contact generated between the two. This was one one of those movies that I just did not want to end. Equally as entertaining as Brest's last movie Scent Of A Woman.

Summary: BEST MOVIE OF ALL TIME!!!! DEFINITELY ONE OF MY FAVORITES!!
Review: When I first saw the coming attractions for "Meet Joe Black", I really wanted to see it. I never got around to seeing it in the theater, but when it came out on tape, I rented it on a night that I knew I wouldn't be able to put the tape(s) on until at least 11:00p.m. I figured I'd give it a shot, and if I wasn't totally into it, I'd shut it off and save it for another day. Well, once I put the tape on, I didn't want it to end. I think the acting was incredible and I LOVED the story. I didn't think it was even one minute too long. I'd definitely recommend this movie (in fact, I already made a few people watch it, and they loved it too!!) I've seen it 3 times already, and I can't wait to see it again. DEFINITELY two thumbs up!!!!!!!
Rating: 
Summary: Great Movie, even if too long.
Review: If the movie wasn't so long, I would have given it 5 stars. It was still a great movie!
