The review:
I had very high expectations for this movie. I mean, who wouldn’t have, for a movie with their two favourite actors. As you might understand, Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman are some of mine. I have seen lots of movies and roles played by them, but I got to admit, this one was far different from what I’ve seen before. The sensitivity, the joy, and the happiness this movie delivers, is above expectations.
The main plot is about two fairly aged men, who has been afflicted by cancer. One of them owns the hospital, and have built it from nothing, to one of the greatest hospitals in the city. The other is a simple car mechanic who has just enough money to take care of his family and himself. You can see the difference, right? This is actually something that takes the saying “Kids alike plays the best” (or as we say it in Norwegian “Like barn leker best”), at a test. They have two very different personalitys and they see life from each perspective.
Anyways, they decide to use their last few months of their life on something they’ve always dreamed of, it’s here The Bucket List enters the movie. They write a list with to-do’s before they die, and as Edward Cole (Jack Nicholson) has the money to do it, Carter Chambers (Morgan Freeman) has the spirit.
And off they go, into the joy and happiness life has to offer, before their end of line closes in..
Rating 1-10: I’ll give it a fairly good 8.
