Review of Meet Joe Black (1998) by Tal T — 18 Aug 2018
Meet Joe Black is ultimately a disappointment and an an exercise in how one should understand the pacing of the movie. Starring Brad Pitt, Claire Forlani and Anthony Hopkins this is based on an older film called Death takes a Holiday (1934).
Brad Pitt dies and is reborn as "death" and enters a wealthy mogul's life to understand the meaning of life, meanwhile falling in love with his daughter. The pacing is a killer and sorry to say but the acting is pedestrian- especially Brad Pitt.
It seems they're all here to collect paychecks to buy mansion, the likes shown in this film. Avoid.
