• The Bucket List [2008]

  Barnaby Walter 22 November 2008

  

  Morgan Freeman and Jack Nicholson star in this enjoyably sentimental comedy drama about two elderly men dying of terminal illnesses who decide to complete a list of all the things they want to do before they die. With many dangerous, adventurous and outright insane items on their "Bucket list" they set off together to travel the world, crossing off the activities on their list as they go.
  For a big budget, big stars comedy it does what it says on the tin, managing to charm without being pretentious or annoying. It's spiriting to see good comedies can still be made when we live in the time of sick stupid humour such as The Love Guru or Forgetting Sarah Marshal. However their maybe something a bit too sweet about this film for some, with soppy predictability seeping in through the cracks. Even so, this still surpasses many efforts of the comedy genre this year.

  A inspiring movie. You watch these 2 guys living life to the full because they are dying, when the rest of us could be doing it for the simple fact that we're not. Am buying it for the parents for Xmas!

  I saw this film in the cinema, it was amazing you would never believe what 2 men can make out of a list of dreams and hopes. It was one of the best films I have seen this year, I'd definately buy it or rent it. It's a must see!

Please note this is a region 2 DVD and will require a region 2 (Europe) or region Free DVD Player in order to play. Two terminally ill men escape from a cancer ward and head off on a road trip with a wish list of to-dos before they die.

Adventure comedy starring Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman. Billionaire Edward Cole (Nicholson) and working class mechanic Carter Chambers (Freeman) are worlds apart. At a crossroads in their lives, they share a hospital room and discover they have two things in common: a desire to spend the time they have left doing everything they ever wanted to do before they 'kick the bucket' and an unrealised need to come to terms with who they are. Together they embark on the road trip of a lifetime, becoming friends along the way and learning to live life to the fullest.
