You only live once, so why not go out in style? That?s what two cancer- ward roommates, an irascible billionaire (Jack Nicholson) and a scholarly mechanic (Morgan Freeman), decide when they get the bad news. They compose a bucket list ? things to do before you kick the bucket ? and head off for the around-the-world adventure of their lives. Sky dive? Check. Power a Shelby Mustang around a racetrack? Check. Gaze at the Great Pyramid of Khufu? Check. Discover the joy in their lives before it?s too late? Check! Under the nimble direction of Rob Reiner, the two great stars provide the heart and soul, wit and wiles of this inspired salute to life that proves that the best time of all is right now.
From Amazon.com:
"You measure yourself by the people who measure themselves by you," says the quietly wise Carter Chambers, played with gravitas and grace by a Morgan Freeman. In Rob Reiner's moving, often hilarious film The Bucket List, all sorts of people measure themselves against the two heroes, Chambers and his hospital suitemate, Edward Cole (Jack Nicholson). But as Cole finds, having spent his entire life building a Fortune 500 company, none of that much matters when cancer, the great equalizer, pays a visit. The film traces the adventures of the two unlikely friends, who meet in a hospital cancer ward, each given six months to live. The "bucket list" of the title refers to a lifelong list of goals that a teacher of Chambers once advised him to compile--and achieve--"before you kick the bucket." Soon the two are off on what may be the last grand adventure of their life, vowing to tick off as many goals (skydiving, race-car driving, seeing the wonders of the world) as they can in the time they have left. What starts as a medical melodrama becomes a road trip, yet the men's mortality realities are never far from thought. The two leads give impressive performances, and remind the viewer of just how few American films focus on the lives and loves of senior citizens. Nicholson even manages to lose his persona in his character, much as he did in About Schmidt. There's a lovely John Mayer tune, "Say (What You Need to Say)," that's perfectly matched to the film's clear-eyed view of life: What does one person leave behind as his true legacy? --A.T. Hurley

Simply put, one of the best. -  |
The Bucket List DVD Review |
|
Simply put, this is one of the best movies I've ever seen. It's a movie to make one think, make one review life, and; yes, make one cry. My husband and I had been hesitant to view this film because it had received such negative reviews. Finally today I decided to watch 'Bucket List' because I knew, deep down, Morgan Freeman would not make 'junk'. I was right.
This isn't a movie for kids, this isn't a movie for teens, nor most people in their 20's. This is a movie for the more mature of us, the people who know life WILL have an end, the people who know the disappointment of unfulfilled dreams. This is a movie to cry over, and to laugh over. If you're a person 'of an age' I can say no more than, please do yourself a favor, SEE THIS MOVIE. |

I saw this movie at the movie theater with a friend and rented it for my husband. He loved it so much he bought it and I sent one to my dad for a present and he and my mom loved it. |

Good actors in a too "feel good" move -  |
The Bucket List DVD Review |
|
Disappointing, I'd say. Very good actors in a somewhat predicatble all too "feel good" film. We rented it - I wouldn't buy it. I'd give it 2 and a half stars if I could. |

A slow starter that redeems itself with a nice twist at the ending. -  |
The Bucket List DVD Review |
|
As a long-time fan of Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman, I expected to see some strong performances from these two great actors. Although they didn't live up to some of their earlier great roles, neither were they disappointing. Both did yeoman's work in their roles as aging men from very different life backgrounds, one phenomenally rich and the other a humble laborer, who found common ground in their battle with terminal cancer. Both are forced, without regard to wealth or social status, to come to grips with both their own mortality and their past failings.
The first half hour or so of the movie was less than gripping, and at times maybe even a little tedious, but once it moves into the meat of the storyline it takes on a new life (although even at this it seems a bit too contrived and just missed a fourth star). In their quest to live full lives in their last remaining months, and thus to try to undo a lifetime of squandered opportunities, they stumble upon something far more valuable -- true self-understanding, true friendship, and, most importantly, redemption. I hate spoilers, so I won't give any clues except to say that the end of this frequently humorous, frequently poignant tale is delightfully unexpected and equally poetic. This is not a great movie, but I would characterize it as a good one that will, or at least should, prompt each viewer to stop and think about his or her own approach to life, and to pursue the most important things while there's still time. |

A Truely Moving Comedy - |
The Bucket List DVD Review |
|
This movie was so good. it made me cry at the end of the film. Jack Nicholson & Morgan Freeman go good together like Walter Mathawe & Jack Lemon. This was a very good touching movie. |
