    A sweet and sentimental film. Put your fingers in the sides of your mouth and say bucket!

    I'd say one of Jack Nicholson's better films.

    This is a pretty good movie. Deals with life and death, friendship and getting through your bucket list before you die. It is a great movie for the two experienced actors - Morgan Freeman and Jack Nicholson.

    A very thoughtout movie, Jack and Morgan play exceptional parts as two cancer sufferers, Morgan being normal wages citizen, Jack being the owner of the hospital that they are staying in, follow in their footsteps to achieve all the tasks that they never really got around to durin...( read more)g their life.

    I liked the fact that both actors were playing roles suited for their age. It made the film a lot more enjoyable. The film was good until the film started skipping half way through obviously no fault to the actual film.

    most people say that thinking/talking about death in useless and depressing but i believe that if we think about it every now and then we get the chance to escape from the daily routine in which we're all stuck...

    Overall there was a good storyline and sub-plots to the film. However, I think it could have gone a bit deeper and gotten into the character relationships a little more. Overall it was a good film.

    It's always a pleasure to see two legendary actors like Freeman and Nicholson on the same screen, just for that fact, it's worth to see it.

    But lamentably, it was not enough to make a great film. The script is pretty poor, and the concept practically spoiled the whole thing even...( read more) before the film starts, since you don't even care about the list, just wanna see what is going to happened when they die and wait if the scene is capable to make you cry: I think that's the ultimate goal of the picture, with the obstacle of the spectator knowing it from the beginning.

    Anyway, it's not a waste of time, if there's a opportunity to catch it on TV, give it a try. It'll be entertaining without the risk of changing your life or appreciate it more

    Starts a bit slow, but stick with it. A fine movie. Both leads give very good performances. Some outrageously funny lines. Mostly though this is a 'go for the heart' movie. Recommend it.
