Captivating movie of limitless allure

The finality of death is inarguably the greatest sadness faced by humanity. At any instant, any of us could cease to exist without any warning. It's a morbid and depressing reality, but every single one of us is going to die someday. If your life was to terminate in a few short days, how would you spend your final hours on Earth? With loved ones? Would you pursue the fulfilment of your lifelong dreams? Watch your favourite movie and listen to your favourite music just once more? Give up and simply mourn your imminent passing? Running at a hair under three hours, Meet Joe Black - director Martin Brest's loose adaptation of the 1934 motion picture Death Takes a Holiday - is an absorbing, contemplative examination of death. The protagonist of the movie is faced with his imminent demise, and confronted with the question of how he should spend the final days of his life.

In human form, Death doesn't possess the aura of authority one would expect, and seems virtually childlike in his lack of familiarity of the simplest human behaviour. However, the script cheats with Joe Black by keeping his character inconsistent. Whenever it's convenient for Joe to be perplexed and nave, he is placed in that position. Yet there are times when the character must exhibit power and understanding in order to further the plot, and thus Joe suddenly speaks and thinks in ways which were seemingly impossible to him earlier. For instance, just as a viewer accepts Death as an untutored individual, he suddenly summons the ability to converse with a dying woman in her native Jamaican dialect. Why is it that he's unable to speak simple English, but is fluent in Jamaican? In addition, Joe has no knowledge of how to conduct himself during board meetings, but seems to know a great deal about the business world when he needs to turn the tables in Bill's favour.
