I saw this movie when it was in the movie theater back in January of 2007. I was staying in a hotel room in Memphis, recovering from a broken arm I suffered from falling out of my truck. While I was up there, I was doing workman's comp stuff and had the company car on the weekends. I decided to get out of the hotel room and go catch a few movies. I remember liking the movie then. A year and a half years later, I finally see it again!
Morgan Freeman and Jack Nicholson are great in this movie. Both men are dying in the movie, and decide to close out their life on their terms. I found that the story dragged a little bit in between different tasks, but made up for it by excellent writing. I liked that as both men were trying to complete each task, both knew that the end was near. I think Morgan Freeman is on of the finest actors to ever come down the pike. I thought Sean Hayes was really good in the movie as Nicholson's assistant.
I think that The Bucket List is a good movie, with two of the best actors in the business, with an accomplished director (Rob Reiner) at the helm. Go check it out!
