A Gem of a Movie!
One of the best films I have seen this year.
Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman are not just actors. They are stars in their own right, honing acting to an art.
The Bucket List is a list of a person facing death, normally from a disease such as cancer. So in this simple story, a billionaire and a mechanic got together and drew up their wishes on a common list and for three months, together they did what was on the list.
The movie takes you around the world from skydiving, eating on the top of a pyramid in Giza to a motorbike ride on the Great wall of China. We also get the see the insides of the Taj Mahal, the foothilsl of the snowy Himalayas and Hong Kong.
Sadly, Morgan's persona passed on and Nicholson went into remission. When he died, his assistant brought his ashes and buried it on the Himalayas; striking off the final wish on his bucket list- to enjoy a magnificent view.
Great movie. Do not let this one go!
