Meet Joe Black Reviews

---

Flawed Excellence
An otherwise excellent DVD is spoiled by one major flaw. The soft-toned characters' dialogue in the last few minutes of the film is completely drowned out by the loud background music. A ruined ending of a really good DVD. There is one other minor flaw. When most DVDs are opened the menu appears before the main feature. Not so, here. To reach the main menu the menu button on the DVD player must be clicked after the feature has started. This is a minor annoyance.

Great date movie
This movie didn't even make it onto my radar screen when it was released. I can't remember why I rented it, but I remember being pleasantly surprised at what a well-acted, well-scripted, charming movie it was. Very upbeat for a movie that is about a guy who is about to die. Very sentimental, but not too sappy. Excellent score by Thmas Newman (cousin of Randy Newman, composer of many popular film scores). Don't miss Izzy Kamakawewa'ole's version of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow/What a Wonderful World" at the end- It's been featured on more than a couple of commercials because it's such a great tune.
