    It was good but as mentioned before I liked it the first time when it was called Forest Gump.

    How is it like Forrest Gump? They have no similarities except for that they both went through some of the same things in their lifetimes.

    Besides an affliction that fallows them through life and shapes the movie, a woman that they fall in love with that comes and goes through their life, fighting in a war, being on a boat, something scary and violent happens on said boat, mother dies half way through the movie, they both keep coming back home throughout the movie, they both owned a company with their name in the company name, both movies start out with someone telling the story of thier life and from time to time come back to the person telling the story.

    I was wondering why you were talking about Meet Joe Black, then I looked back throught the posts. How the fuck is this movie ANYTHING like meet joe black. One is a story about someone with a physical problem going through life, the other is about the Grim Reaper trying to get laid.

    Its Brad Pitt acting the same way. In MJB he is death, experiencing life. In CCBB he is telling a story about his life experiences. They are a similar concept, and Brad Pitt's acting is almost exactly the same for both movies. I will admit it is more like FG, but it is almost an identical role to MJB.

    They are nothing alike. Meet Joe Black he is like a confused bright eyed puppy, in Benjamin Button he is a aww shucks take on all challenges almost cocky kid in an old mans body.
