Movie Extravaganza!

The Bucket List!

"There was a survey once, a thousand people were asked if they could know in advance, whether they want to know the exact date of their death. 96% of them say No!"

Directed by Rob Reiner, who ought to know better, it tells the story of two old men diagnosed with terminal cancer. Edward Cole (Jack Nicholson) is a wealthy, confirmed bachelor hospital owner and Carter Chambers (Morgan Freeman) is a middle class car mechanic with a big family and a longtime marriage. The film is about the way they choose to spend their final days doing all the things they never got to do when they were young. A Bucket List is a list of things you want to do before you kick the bucket. I watched this movie together with Elane, Venus and Siu Fai, in the really comfy, carpeted, organised house of Siu Fai's. Amazing for a place conquered by guys. Good job!*wink*

SPOILERS ahead;

1) The movie wastes a good third of its running time hanging out in the hospital with Edward and Carter as they receive their initial diagnosis and come to grips with it.

2) It feels like the scenes after being diagnosed with cancer was rushy towards the end.

3) The background and sceneries seems fake here and there.

BUT;
overall, i enjoyed the movie!=) Here is why; it makes me think of what is My Bucket List! Well, probably its too early for that, but who knows rite? Anything might happen.*choi choi choi* touch wood!

There are parts which i find pretty meaningful. This is one of the few which i remembered;

• This was when Carter Chambers (Morgan Freeman) was asking Edward Cole (Jack Nicholson) on top of a pyramid;

Did you find joy in your life?
and
Did you made an impact in people's life?

Those are simple questions, but it made me think about my life. Its amazing how movies can make us question our life's and that we can relate to certain situations by putting ourself into their shoes.

This is the soundtrack of the movie John Mayor - Say;

This movie addition couldn't be possible without Jonathan's help!
Thank you!*lol*
