Anybody here seen "The Bucket List?"
We're watching it on DVD later tonight, and I'm curious about how good it is. :)

1. I liked it. Although I was expecting more a dark comedy
than what I ended up seeing. Still, I enjoyed it.

2. The trailer doesn't really give you an idea about the film at all.
I hate when they do that.

5. I agree, and I thought Morgan Freeman
gave an oscar worthy performance, but then doesn't he always! Really, he outshone Nicholson by far!

6. Yes!
I'm not one to watch many movies, and my son brought it over to me, said it was my kind of movie...
I thought it was awesome! I cried, and went to sleep. I need to start my own bucket list now...
There are some really funny parts in it... the acting was excellent.

Enjoy!
peace~

8. We enjoyed it.
It's by no means a film, but it's an enjoyable movie. Freeman and Nicholson play well off each other.

If you like it, check out "The World's Fastest Indian," about an elderly New Zealander (played by Anthony Hopkins) who wants to set a land speed record at the Utah Salt Flats on his antique Indian motorcycle. Oktoberkid would probably enjoy it, too.

:hi:
