The Bucket List is the story of two old men (portrayed by Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman), of differen social statuses. Edward Cole (Nicholson) is a rich businessman, while Carter Chambers (Freeman) is a mechanic. The two guys meet in hospital. At some point, Chambers writes a "bucket list", of things he wants to do before he dies (both men have cancer), and Cole sees him and comes up with a great ideea: what if they actually DO those things for real?! So they end up doing extreme sports and visiting the world, thus knowing each other better. When Chambers takes Cole on a surprise visit to his daughter whom he hasn't visited for years, he gets angry and yells at Carter, thus ending their friendship and tearing "The Bucket List" apart.
Later in the movie, Chambers dies of cancer and Cole goes to his funeral and holds a speech in his memory. The final scenes show the urns that contain both men's ashes being placed on top of the Himalaya along with the restored Bucket List.
Overall, director Rob Reiner made a great comedy/drama movie that can be watched by anyone. It's a great movie, worth a 9.5/10 in the least, and I reccomend it to you.
