The Bucket List Reviews

The Bucket List deals with issues about what really matters in life when given a timeline to death.  Two old men, played by Morgan Freeman and Jack Nicholson, are told they only have a few months to live and they decide to make the most of their time by completing tasks on their "bucket list." From skydiving to trips to Cairo, the men find not only the adventure they are seeking, but a sense of rebirth as well.  For the movie viewer, we are faced with questions that we normally like to keep in denial, such as whether we married the right person, if we should mend rifts between loved ones,...

From the first time I saw this movie I couldn't help but fall in love with it; Jack Nicholson plays this rich guy who ends up with cancer. Morgan Freeman is this mechanic who also could tell you trivial facts at the drop of a hat. He finds out he has cancer too and ends up in the same room as Nicholson. At first, it's not a marriage made in heaven, but with the camaraderie of them in the same boat, going through the same things and Nicholson discovering the list Freeman made, aptly called a Bucket List, he decides to go on the adventure of a lifetime around the world. Of course, Freeman has some...

I've been a long time fan of Jack Nicholson and have felt that Morgan Freeman is one of the most underrated actors in motion pictures today. The Bucket List tells the story of two opposites of society, who are thrown together in the same hospital room by the same illness. Both are given the worst of all prognoses. From there, the fun begins. But this film is not just about the adventures they partake in, but also the relationship that carries them to the ultimate end. I am waiting for the DVD so I can see the extra features. Nicholson and Freeman seemed to have a lot of respect for each others...

This is a poinute story of two men from two different worlds now both in the same predicament! Jack is Jack...always good, and works well along side another great actor, Morgan Freeman. This movie is not for someone looking for wild chase scenes or fast action. Also, do not watch if you are into racy sex scenes and a lot of swearing,. That too is not found in this Flick.

I loved it.

I loved this movie.  I am a die-hard Jack Nicholson fan and wanted to see this movie because he was in it.  I had to drag my friends along - especially my boyfriend.  It didn't get good reviews so no one wanted to go see it.

It is a feel-good movie that will make you laugh and cry.  At the end of the movie I think at least half (of the totally packed) theater was wiping their eyes.

I can't wait to buy this movie when it comes out on DVD!

Life is a gift and that is why they call it (a) the present! The "Bucket List" is one movie that really makes the viewer question his/her own mortality. This movie is a real "eye-opener" and that is exactly why I went to see it. I was not disappointed. In fact, I recommend that everyone see this movie. It may very well be just "the ticket" you need to get your own life in order, whatever that may mean to you.

For myself, this movie really hit home. I lost my best friend to terminal cancer three years ago. On October 14, 2007, my twenty-nine year old niece, Adina, passed. She had fought a long...

The Bucket List was a real disappointment to me.  I saw the trailers and I thought the movie would be hilarious, it was not.  For the two main actors in this movie it was a real let down.  I think they did a good job, but the script was diffidently lacking.  I do not know what I would put on my list to do, if I knew I would be dead in a year or six months.  But I have known a few people who have been given that option and some of them went crazy for a couple of weeks but really got serious and than really got sick.  I guess in reality this movie just did not work.  I have seen other movies...
