It seems like everyone has seen this movie, so I figure it’s about time for me. The popularity of The Bucket List is easy to understand with its beloved stars and popular director. Plus, it confronts the universal theme of death and dying in a supposedly funny way. But does it live up the the hype? I guess that depends on the hype you heard. This movie is somewhat touching, somewhat funny, somewhat well-acted, and somewhat enjoyable. I won’t see it again, but I’m not disappointed I saw it once.
Grade: B
