Pros: Everything Cons: So few, not worth mentioning.
If there is one thing you can trust, its the fact that any film that stars Anthony Hopkins in the cast is definitely a "must see". Watching Mr. Hopkins read the local yellow pages is an infinitely more entertaining prospect than 90% of the...

Pros: Great performances- unusual movie Cons: You need 3 hours
Once in a while you see a movie that has a tendency to haunt you. It stays with long after the screen has gone blank. "Meet Joe Black" did this to me. Perhaps it was being able to relate to the loss of your father and all of the emotions that...

Pros: Gorgeous interior sets Cons: Brad Pitt
Which is what I thought of Brad Pitt's performance - it could have been anybody, much less the Grim Reaper, Death itself. There are so many things wrong with this movie, but most of them begin with the name Brad. Sorry, all you Pitt fans, but you can get...

Pros: Beautiful cinematography, uplifting musical score Cons: None.
I first saw Meet Joe Black when it came out on video. A few people had told me that they really didn't like it. I think they were just jealous of Brad Pitt - what can he do - he's really good looking. My second (and subsequent) viewing was on DVD -...

Pros: good story, good performances Cons: too long
The question is this: Can you make it through 3 hours of Brad Pitt pretending to be a kindly death spirit inhabiting a young mans body? I almost couldn't. This has got to be one of the slowest paced movies I have ever seen, with long stretches of...

Pros: Great Cast Cons: Long movie
I saw this movie because I am a HUGE Brad Pitt fan. I love his work in his past films. I would watch Brad Pitt reading a newspaper all day if I could! Anyway the movie is not just for Brad Pitt fans. Anthony Hopkins is great as usual. The Brad -...

Pros: good acting, interesting movie Cons: too long
I rented this movie a few night ago and really had no idea what it was about. I thought it was a very interesting movie. Brad Pitt's acting in this movie was great and so was Anthony Hopkins. Basically the movie is about a very wealthy man named Bill...

Pros: love story corny makes you think Cons: husbands will snore send them away
I feel sorry for people who don't see more in a movie than what's on the screen. I loved it, and have watched it numerous times. Granted it is probably what is considered a "chick flick", but it is certainly entertainment. My daughters and I...

Pros: Great story masterfully delivered by great actors Cons: NONE
This is a great example of how the movie industry is getting back on track. I have not seen a great film in a long time. This is not a small statement from me! I believe it is even better than Gone With the Wind!
The acting is top notch. I...

Pros: Excellent acting Cons: Kind of confusing unless you watch closely
Meet Joe Black reminded me of the other side of City of Angels. The acting in it was great and the movie touched me like no other I have ever seen before. By the end I was crying. It is just as long as Titanic, but this movie definitely kept me more...

Pros: excitement,thrilling chills!! Love Cons: none
I fail in Love with Death
Brad Pitt made this film seem so real that you could jump right in and play a role.
I have now seen this movie approx. four times and still get a chill!
This is one of the best movies I have seen...

Pros: story, ending, Brad Pitt Cons: length
Meet Joe Black is an surprisingly great and thoroughly enthralling story. It may be long, yes, but there are so many thought-provoking scenes and if you stay on til the end you'll be glad you did.
Normally, two-movie sets are not my thing,...
