a little long but worth it

Rating: 7/10 (9 April 2007)

I really liked this film. I like the premise of having death not really understanding the good parts of being human. I think Brad Pitt did a great job with his role. I especially like the peanut butter part. Also, I think he did a great job changing from the man happy go lucky man he played in the first couple scenes to the darker character of death. I think all the performances were really good. I liked the little details like the cold lamb sandwiches. The movie was a tad long which is why I think most people don't like it, but I enjoyed it. The death and taxes storyline was great. I like how that came full circle. The party was amazing I wish I could have been there. I like the underlying theme of finding happiness and love and leading a full life. I'll admit I shed a few tears at the end. The only thing that bothered me was that Anthony Hopkins character was only 65 which seemed a little young. But, I guess leading a fast pace life in the corporate world tends to ware on a person. This film was very entertaining. If you ever have three hours give it a watch!
