    This is truly a remarkable and impeccable film of a story that’s never been recorded before. A story of love, the human experience, and the angel of death. To me I saw “death” as a near perfect example of how direct, intentional and powerful angels really are. Toward the end “death” (Brad Pitt) almost slips up to decided to be with the lovely daughter of Bill, Susan. But knows this is not his calling and decided to depart for the better. The writing and dialogue in this film is intensely poetic and deep. I hope anyone who watches this film experiences the true gift of what a celestial type of love is all about
  • Odd premise but fundamentally universal story

    On it’s face Meet Joe Black is a very weird premise but if you can get beyond that, it is a sound universal story of love wanted but one where it can not be had for one reason or another. Pitt is looking his best in the mid-late 90s & Claire Florani is a breathtaking vision that I fell in love with through the screen. (Idk how/why my type changed, as doing review on my phone).
  • Beautiful movie - amazing to watch

    Great movie, however the main female is horrible. I can’t stand to look or listen to her.

    This movie is so awesome that Death, himself, took human form to see it and experience the emotions of this wonderful tale.
