Perfect cast and a good story
just watch it!
Good movie, but best of all time? Hardly . . .
The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.
When a movie gives you all the elements, and at end gives you what I phrase as 'a positive balance' you leave with satisfaction and excitement. This is what 'The Bucket List' does. The story is how two cancer patients create a "To Do" list which they want to fulfill, before dying. The factor of suffering from cancer doesn't hurt much as the patients are already old.In the run our two buddies learn from each other and an exciting feel-good-drama unfurls. The two buddies are aces of their own world. It is one of the movies, where words simply cannot define its elegance. You have to watch it to know its greatness.
Okay the thing about this movie is...... Well the best thing I can tell you is to go into this movie not expecting hilarity Because you will dislike it i hated it the first time I saw as I found it funny but not hilarious And to me I was like what a let down But I rewatched before doing this review and it was only then that I realised how beautiful The movie was how heartfelt it was only then did I absolutely love the movie It's not a comedy I look at it as a warm hearted movie with some funny moments
Morgan and jack proves again that nothing is more beautiful in this world than friendship and it can breaks all the barrier even the barrier of time, like the part when jack check " kissing the most beautiful girl in this world" This is a nice movie to watch or may be You are not that much strong as i thought you are.
The Bucket List is a comedy-drama film directed by Rob Reiner. The stars are Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman.The story is about two 70-year-old men, Carter Chambers (Freeman) a mechanic, and the billionaire Edward Cole (Nicholson). They meet for the first time in the hospital after both have been diagnosed with lung cancer. They have just 6 months to live. Carter begins writing a "bucket list", things to do before he will die. Edward finds the list an persuades Carter to do everything on the list (and adds more things to do). With his money the could realize all their craziest dreams in the months they have left. Carter agrees and the adventure begins.It's a wonderful story with great characters. It's funny but it also teaches us a lot about life, especially what's really important in our lives, so I would really recommend this film!
