The Bucket List

Two consecutive "old" movies. I think this was not as good a movie as Atonement, but my expectations were significantly lower, so I might have liked it a bit more. I suppose it was about how we face death, would you live differently if you knew death was imminent, but I don't think it actually dealt with the issue, choosing instead to spend more time on the humorous interplay between Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman, making it more fluff that philosophy. Which is fine, I suppose, though being as it was probably shooting for a bit more I think it missed the mark a bit. I think if it had been a buddy comedy, it would have been better. But, it was ok.
