David L @davidfilmexpert 6d The chemistry and of Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman really elevates this film and makes more entertaining than it has any right to be. Everytime I listen to John Mayer's beautiful song "Say" I'll now think of Rob Reiner. Rest in peace. See more Riccardo G Nov 26 My favorite movie of all time. Very strong message throughout. It makes me laugh and cry everytime. All of these "experts" have absolutely 0 clue what they are talking about. See more Andrew D Nov 9 I'm sorry but quick question? How do I become a film critic?? Lmao apparently these people get paid to criticize every good bad or decent movie and 90 percent of the time they haven't the slightest clue on what they are talking about!!! Lol sorry not sorry but you geniuses need to get a regular day job because we all are film critics in the end so stop labeling these idjits as a top critic when it's a laughable hobby in the end with ppl who have no idea what they are doing or talking about... See more Farid M Sep 20 The film highlights the meaninglessness of life and how materialistic the world we live in has become. The fact that wealthy people can no longer enjoy life is like completing a game at 100%—everything seems to be in perfect order, yet they simply ignore the emptiness. Poor people, on the other hand, are forced to face these truths, because otherwise, they have no choice at all. And when I say "poor people," I actually mean most of us—people living with the mindset of the rich while still being poor. You don’t need to spend a fortune to enjoy life, but you absolutely have to do justice to it. When we close our eyes for the last time, we should be able to say to ourselves, “I truly lived this life,” before leaving. Otherwise, all we have is wasted time, a fleeting spark, and endless meaninglessness that consumes us. This film truly touched my life. See more Alexandra S Sep 18 "The Bucket List" is a truly captivating film that combines comedy and drama. This insightful story, inspired by real events, follows two terminally-ill men who escape from a hospital to fulfill their wishes before they die. The plot is both gripping and deeply thought-provoking, forcing the viewer to reflect on life, death, and what truly matters. The brilliant cast, led by the incredible Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman as the two lead actors, delivers powerful performances. The film's characters feel real, and their journey is incredibly inspiring, showing friendship and the strength of the human spirit. All in all, "The Bucket List" is an aesthetically pleasing and emotionally charged finale about the importance of living in the present. It’s a must-see that leaves a lasting impression. See more Robert R @RobertRiley Jul 3 Nowhere near the rollicking comedic triumph that the marketing would've led you to believe it was back in 2007, "The Bucket List" is actually a deeply sobering, generally quiet study on the meaning of life in the face of a ticking clock and, though there weren't any waterworks on my side of things, I completely understand why this movie turned so many folks into a puddle when it came out. It's just sad, man. Particularly the last half-hour or so and not in like a purifying "Green Mile" or "Me And Earl And The Dying Girl" kind of way. Just depressing. Still, a movie making me feel misery is a movie making me something and that's to be commended (lol). Kidding aside, there are some elegant tricks played upon the audience during the film's final act and I think — ultimately — what's said is worthy of being heard. Definitely on the lesser end of the spectrum of Rob Reiner's filmography, but he's done far, far worse. See more Read all reviews
