The Bucket List

It's never too late to live life to the fullest.

The Bucket Lists is the tale of two men that wish to complete a list of dreams and aspirations that they have held for most of their life before they will one day, “kick the bucket”. Starring Morgan Freeman and Jack Nicholson, this is a heart-warming comedic drama of friendship, of dreams, and of life lessons.

Carter Chambers has been in working class his whole life. He remembers the time when his professor in his freshman year asked his class to compose a bucket list – but a life kind of got in the way of the pursuit of this list. Carter found himself thinking about the list from time to time but he never actually got around to working on it. And then he was diagnosed with a terminal illness, death was possibly just around the corner – what happened to his life's dreams?

Edward Cole is a corporate billionaire, and was so busy in his life worrying about making money and building a business empire and meeting deadlines, that he got lost and realized at an old age that he never found the deeper meaning in life people always talk about – he never met any of his own personal dreams. This realization hits him when he too, is diagnosed with a terminal illness and is sitting in the bed next to a perfect stranger – Carter Chambers.

The two men befriend each other as they both share a yearning to reach their dreams before they see their life deadline. Against doctor orders, they leave the hospital together and take on the world head on as they cross off item by item on their list of life dreams.

This is one of the most heart-warming stories I have ever seen come to life on screen. It's about friendship, it's about dreams, it's about the preciousness of life, and it's a reminder that there are things more important in this world than money and society's expectations of us. Although I think anyone would enjoy this movie, I would recommend it for an older crowd – not only do actors Morgan Freeman and Jack Nicholson cater to this audience – but it's always nice to receive a reminder that life is meant for living.
