Death with a heart
17 November 1998
Despite its long running time (3 hours), Meet Joe Black manages to keep the audience enthralled with its captivating characters, and emotional story. Basically this movie is about "Death" learning about life. "Death" takes the form of a human in order to learn about life and what are its qualities if any. In doing so, he falls in love with the daughter of the man he's supposed to bring to death. He must now decide whether to take the woman he loves into death, or leave her on earth to experience the goodness of life he's learned about.

Meet Joe Black is a movie loaded with romance and drama. The former part including scenes with Brad Pitt and Clair Forlani flirting with each other, or making love. There is a lot of chemistry between the two, and it just brings a smile to your face when they interact with each other. Anthony Hopkins brings a lot of drama to this movie, by outstandingly playing the part of a loving father with two daughters who must bear the weight of his company on his back. This movie is well acted, and shouldn't be missed. You'll leave the theater, knowing how precious life is and that love can even conquer "Death".
