Amazed!!!

Rating: 9/10 (25 April 1999)

Last night I rented Meet Joe Black just to see how I would like it. From critics' reviews about the movie I was not expected too much. This is how I felt. From beginning to end I was amazed how good it was. The acting for one was great. Brad Pitt was amazing and his best performance in a movie. Anothony Hopkins should have got an Oscar for his performance. Claire Forlani showed that she can be a great actor with I think the best performance of the whole movie. The storyline which was like the 1934 film Death takes a Holiday. I thought the film was long and could have been shorter but if you get through the 3 hours ok you are in for a good ending. I think you have to be in the right mood to watch this film but overall a great film. I give it 3 out of 4.
