I’ve been dying to see “The Bucket List” with Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman. Sunday I got my chance.
It was ok.
I was expecting a laugh riot… what I got was a fairly slow-paced film that had a couple of comedic parts and a couple of tear jerking parts (YES, I cried).
The acting was very good (duh! Look who’s in it!), and the story was unique… but it got old after a while and I started losing interest pretty quickly.
I’m sure the plethera of senior citizens in the audience loved it and felt some strong ties with the characters and the story… but for me, as a 20-something, it was pretty dull.
I didn’t hate it. Like I said, it had good points… but it was just ok for me.
