I watch this in my teens, but i think i missed all the subtleties until now... It was surprising well acted as Pitt in the role of Joe Black, and an interesting take on the play, "Death Takes A Holiday". Yes, it is slow to get a conclusion, but this also reflects the journey from life into... well- death. Beautiful soundtrack, nice witty writing/ script and clever editing. Watch it a few times to see the smooth transitions. 4 stars.

Only lasted about an hour in. Was enjoyable for a short time, but once you get the gist of the plot, you don't want to have to sit through another 2 hours when you know what's going to happen.

A very slow movie but breathtaking production and incomarable acting. The plot keeps your attention. Well worth the 2 hours.

movie dragged on for 3 hours. Which is 3 hours you will never get back again... could easily have been condensed down to 1h30m.

Ok...not terribly impressed...a bit weird. Anthony Hopkins is a great actor, but his talents were wasted on this movie.

Interesting plotline, great performances from Anthony Hopkins and Brad Pitt. Didn't much like the "happy" ending, though.

a movie that held our attention to the end, actors Anthoney Hopkins, Brad Pitt, and Clair Totlani played their parts superbly, scenary and music siuted the theme, a strange subject to have acted oit, but very well performed by all

One of my favourite movies of all time. Beautifully presented and a few extras, including a 10 min showcase with interviews of all the actors.
