Never seen this film. But I don't think I'd enjoy it much after having already seen the "what the fuck" ending hundreds of times on YouTube.

That Jamaican accent is almost as bad as his Irish accent from Snatch. Also Joey you are an editing wizard.

I always liked the film, also the ending of that video was well funny.

Meet Joe Black is a great movie! It has some issues but its got a really interesting premise and the acting is decent, also, that crash scene in the beginning cannot be beaten.

I've never sat down and watched it start to finish. I always seem to dip in and out when its on TV.

Never seen it before, but I don't know if I could stand a three hour movie like this. Always good to see Jeffrey Tambor though, and I forgot how friggin attractive '90s Brad Pitt was.

One of the greatest flirting scene of all time for me. Made me smile awkwardly every time.

Claire Forlani...what the fuck happened to you!

I watched this film years ago and while I didn't walk away with the same impression as you I can understand why someone would like or love this movie. Very unique.

Haven't seen Meet Joe Black, but what I remember about this movie was that lots of fanboys went to see it in order to see the Star Wars Episode I teaser :P

I've always enjoyed this movie, great choice for the segment. Three hours is long for any type of movie but it works well enough here and only drags in a few places. Always been a big Brad Pitt and Anthony Hopkins fan.

Man Anthony Hopkins looks so young in this movie, as in old man young.

Edit: Jeffrey Tambor looks like Dr.Phil in this movie too.
