Anthony Hopkins does it again!

by Sith , Feb 01 '00
Pros: Romantic
Cons: None!
I am a big fan of Anthony Hopkins. From "The Silence of the Lambs" to "Remains of the day" all the way to "Shadowlands" he is a total scene steeler. In "Meet Joe Black" that has not changed. A brilliant performance...

Death is very appealing.

by BobLeep1 , Mar 25 '00
Pros: Thought provoking, masterfully crafted.
Cons: Extremely awkward sex sequence.
Meet Joe Black could be an excellent companion piece to the recent film What Dreams May Come (one of my favorites of this year.) Where “What Dreams…” looks at death through the eyes of a dead man, Meet Joe Black looks at the living through the eyes of...

Meet Joe Black

by james_hess , Jan 06 '00
Pros: None come to mind.
Cons: Brad Pitt.
The only thing worse than a twice-chewed meal is a twice-chewed meal you didn't know was such until after the fact.

That, simply, is "Meet Joe Black".

"Meet Joe Black" is a remake. "Meet Joe Black" is...

Meet Joe Black

by lskrzyniarz , Oct 15 '99
Pros: Good acting, interesting story
Cons: Too long, useless subplots
The power behind this film is fairly obvious: It makes you think about your own mortality and whether or not you consider your life well-lived. Heady stuff for an afternoon at the movies. The strange thing is, it isn't as depressing as one might think....

Meet pure genius!!!

by corazonn , Dec 21 '99
Pros: awesome plot, awesome performances
Cons: a little slow in the beginning
First of all I must say that this movie is unlike any other I've ever seen. Let me warn you that the first half hour or so is a little slow, but I guarantee you the rest of the movie will fly by! When I first heard the story line it did not sound...

Block out some time for Black

by bubbabenim , Feb 29 '00
Pros: Gives you a great perspective on being ready to look back
Cons: Lengthy for most video watchers
I had no idea that this movie was not going to be the standard 2hour flick . . . but unless my spouse had mentioned the length of the movie I wouldn't have noticed the time. I hadn't read a lot about the movie prior to renting, and it left me wide open...

A Date With Death

by ascension_3 , Dec 14 '99
Pros: Great cast, great story, wonderful music.
Cons: Plot is stretched a little too much.
While at home on break, I happened to watch Meet Joe Black. I went into the movie not knowing what to expect as I had only heard one person's opinion on it. At the end of the movie, I was so pleased that I sat down and watched it again. There are so...

Meet Joe Black, Excellent Acting by Brad Pitt

by chunchun , Oct 30 '06
Pros: Good acting by both Brad and Clair
Cons: Part where they plan the party
Many people complain “Meet Joe Black” is too long and boring. I have watched it numerous times and have never felt it was too long. I am an avid movie watcher and have seen most movies that have been released. I enjoy the entire movie Meet Joe ...

Meet Joe Black: One of my top 5

by whacko26 , Jul 04 '06
Pros: emotional, humorous, passionate, human, excellent cast, great script.
Cons: None at all.
I watch this film whenever I see it's scheduled. The first time my husband and I watched it, I wanted to see if it was similar to the 1930's "Death Takes a Holiday" with Fredric March in the role of Death taking human form and falling in love with the ...

why the peanut butter?

by sarawood , Oct 10 '00
Pros: a sad but sweet story, and life lessons
Cons: Claire Forlani
I went through high school in a state of rebellion against the norm. I have yet to see Titanic. It never appealed to me, and I'm not a fan of Leo. I never saw a single movie with Brad Pitt. I thought i was doing pretty good-considering that i had...

Got Any Peanut Butter?

Meet Brad Pitt

by Halabuda , Nov 13 '00
Pros: Great Acting
Cons: 3 hours long!
Okay, yesterday I had this whole opinion written, then while I was editing it my computer froze so I didn't get a chance to submit it :*(. Well, now its time to re-do the opinion.

After being amazed at Brad Pitts performance in Fight...

The Worst Movie Ever Made

by stroupis , Apr 25 '01
Pros: Umm...all the words in the title are easy to pronounce
Cons: Everything about this movie
(Warning: I have not seen this movie since it was in theaters, nor do I ever plan on seeing it again. That being said, any errors here are due to that. Of course, the movie still sucks).

Never, ever see this movie. It was the worst three...

NOT WHAT I EXPECTED

by alyssar , May 12 '00
Pros: a few moments of entertainment
Cons: long, slow, boring
When I first saw the previews for this movie, I couldn't wait to watch it. Not only did the story line appear interesting, but I enjoy watching Brad Pitt and Anthony Hopkins.

Unfortunately, reality was a tough pill to swallow when I finally...

Interesting....

by babytweety , Jan 20 '00
Pros: ???
Cons: long, adult content
As I watched "Meet Joe Black" I was drawn to it in a way that surprised me. I have always been a Brad Pitt fan but did not particularly want to see a movie in which he played death. This film was a lot better than I expected it to be. It was...
