Movie Reviews of The Bucket List
Movie Review: Morgan & Jack
Summary: 5 Stars
You knew going in that this movie had a good chance of being very good just based on the main actors. And the expectations are mert.
Morgan Freeman and Jack Nicholson turn in superb performaces as two men from different walks of life. Freemman is a learned mechanic while Nicholson is a very wealth man. They meet in a cancer ward and develop a friendship and decide to do all the things they want to do before they die and from there the story continues following them as they check off the items from the "Bucket List" and more and more of the characters are revealed. It is funny, sad and is overall a profound movie that shows there are still great filmakers and actors.
Movie Review: The Bucket List
Summary: 5 Stars
Oh my gosh. This movie was absolutely wonderful. I laughed & cried, even some tears stained my husband's face. Very emotional movie. This is another flick to watch again & again. Like "As Good As It Gets" & "Driving Miss Daisy"! With these "2" Great Actors, Freeman & Nicholson, you couldn't go wrong. No Violence or Drugs, what a breath of Fresh Air. It breaks that barrier where you don't judge a person by the color of their skin or how much $$ they do/don't have. We didn't get to see it @ the Movie so receiving this over the holidays as a Gift was an Inspirational Gift too. It ws completely diffferent than what I expected from previews. I give it AYMovie Review: Great film for grownups
Summary: 5 Stars
If you are a thirteen-year-old boy on a skateboard, or even think like one, pass on this. Your review will most likely contain words like "old" and "bleh" and "boring." Hollywood is making plenty of movies for you, so be forewarned and leave this one alone.
If you are an adult, and have seen a bit of life, then you may really enjoy this.
Rob Reiner has made a remarkable film about choosing how you live and die, regardless of the circumstances. Even if you are not aging, terminal or a wealthy person, you can have your own bucket list.
In Spain, they have a saying, "Life is short, but wide." Movies like this remind us of just that.
Movie Review: A keeper to watch again
Summary: 5 Stars
To the point review: If you like Jack Nicholson's crotchity humor and Morgan Freeman's prophetic enlightenment you will enjoy their journey to death (literally). Humor and heart warm the last days of two very different men.
These roles are stereotypical for Freeman and Nicholson but where they are comfortable they are at their best.
This movie is a welcome break from the strangely entertaining yet unfulfilling productions(e.g., "Michael Clayton", "Gone Baby Gone") that seem to be the norm lately. Yes, I am a sucker for a happy ending.
FYI: Death is not always a sad and unfulfilling ending. Doing it right IS the happy ending here.
Movie Review: Do NOT watch this movie with an emotional female..
Summary: 5 Stars
I have always liked Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman, from Nicholson in Easy Rider in the late '60's and Freeman in Lean on Me in the late '80's. No matter what I think of any of the movies they were in, I have never been unimpressed by these two actors, and when The Bucket List was released, I knew that it would end up in my DVD collection.
The movie is funny, introspective (especially if you're in that 45-60 age group), and enlightening (especially if you're in that 20-35 age group).
45-60 - Do you have a bucket list? Get to work on it. Now!
20-35 - Don't put off the things you want to do; as Nike said, "Just Do It!"
