Brad Pitt's best performance

Rating: 9/10 (12 July 1999)

Meet Joe Black was a shock because it was emotionally deeper than I expected it to be. Deeper than I expected Brad Pitt to be able to play. His facial expressions are unbelievably good. As he experiences life, shock, sweetness, surprise, puzzlement and dawning comprehension war in his face. I can't imagine how he does it. We expect this level of role portrayal from Anthony Hopkins, he's been superb for many years; to have this level of acting from a man labeled as a "pretty face" was astounding. I highly recommend the movie.
