Movie Reviews

Chicago Sun-Times - 8/10 by Roger EbertThe movie contains elements that make it very good, and a lot of other elements besides. Less is more.
CNN.com - 8/10 by Paul TataraYou just feel like you're dragging a set of dumbbells around with you while you're watching it.
Spirituality and Practice - 8/10 by Frederic and Mary Ann BrussatIs weighed down by a tediously slow pace and overwrought production values.
TheFilmFile.com - 8/10 by Dustin PutmanA sleek, good-looking, and entertaining romance.
Kalamazoo Gazette - 8/10 by James SanfordBrest lets scene after scene ramble on and on, giving the picture a languid air... For everyone except the most fervent Pitt fans, this is Sominex Cinema.
eFilmCritic.com - 8/10 by Rob GonsalvesLong but never boring, spiritual but never soggy, this is the brand of big entertainment Hollywood is best at but so rarely does right these days.
Entertainment Weekly - 7/10 by Owen GleibermanSometimes clever and enjoyable, even touching, yet too often the film makes you feel as if you're in Sunday school.
Austin Chronicle - 7/10 by Marc SavlovMeet Joe Black flows nicely, and the whole of the film is bathed in some of the most sumptuous cinematography (courtesy of "Like Water for Chocolate's" Emmanuel Lubezki) of the year.
eFilmCritic.com - 6/10 by Scott WeinbergThere's a solid 95-minute movie buried somewhere in here.
Film Journal International - 6/10 by Kevin LallyThere's a decent two-hour movie buried within the three hours of Meet Joe Black, a classic instance of a filmmaker overvaluing his material beyond all good sense.
