Cancer patients Carter Chamber (Morgan Freeman) a blue-collar mechanic and billionaire hospital magnate Edward Cole (Jack Nicholson) meets at the hospital for the very first time. They became friends as they undergo their respective treatments. Carter Chambers is a family man who dreams of becoming a history professor but because of some unexpected circumstances he never rose above his job at the McCreath shop. Edward Cole is an eccentric loner, four times divorced, who enjoys nothing more than tormenting his personal servant, Matthew, whom he calls Thomas. Both are diagnosed with less than a year to live. Carter begins writing a “bucket list”, the thing he wants to do before “he kicks the bucket”. When Edward unintentionally finds out about the list he goaded Carter to do the list. They went to all places that they wanted to see and did all the things that they wanted to do, which is of course included in the list.
I won’t tell all the things that happened in the movie since I would not want to be a spoiler but to make the story short the two realized the true meaning of joy. They found happiness in each other and they found a friend whom they will always cherish. The story will surely make you cry. Two thumbs up for this movie!.ü
