Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman star in Rob Reiner’s “The Bucket List” about cancer patients trying to make the best of their fatal disease.
A sure winner will be in the theaters on Christmas Day.
This is what Variety.com has to say, “is a feel-good film about death, a sitcom about mortality, “Ikiru” for meatheads. It’s also a picture about two cancer patients confronting reality, and deciding how they want to spend their presumed last days, that has not an ounce of reality about it. For all these reasons, along with the star power of Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman, this refitting of the grumpy old men genre stands a good chance of becoming director Rob Reiner’s first hit since the mid-’90s, even though its prevailing sensibility will eventually make it look more at home on small screens”
