It disappoints me when people criticize this movie for being slow-moving and long. Yes, the movie is long, but it is just as long as it needed to be. Any shorter and the effect would not have been the same. And as for slow-moving, I guess it's a matter of opinion, because I have seen this movie numerous times and it always holds my interest and never feels slow. The acting is absolutely amazing. The guy in the coffee shop and Joe Black are obviously two completely different characters. And it is easy to pinpoint the exact moment that Susan realizes that there is something different about Joe Black. The actors truly became the characters. In my opinion, there is nothing wrong with this movie. The music was wonderful, the script was well written, the actors were captivating, and most importantly, it holds an important lesson about life and love. Well done.
