I would like to see it.

I hope they go blazing off a cliff in a convertible, Thelma and Louise style, at the end.

Looks pretty tired and predictable.

Looks pretty tired and predictable.

You still can't go wrong with Morgan Freeman and Jack Nicholson in a movie together.

It will be a good renter.

Very good, me and the wife caught this last night and it was much better than I thought it was going to be. Very well done.

it was a good movie....but felt a little empty.

certainly was a tear jerker, but it was missing something.

A very, very good film. Not an Oscar winner, but a funny, emotional and warm and fuzzy as it gets. I really enjoyed the film. Rotten Tomatoes and their 42% can KMA!!!

Ok, artsy fartsy guys, where is the Bucket List thread?

Loved it. Cried my eyes out. Laughed.

Is it beneath your need for angst? For pathos? For black sub-currents?

Morgan Freeman's wife was superb.

I like some chick flicks too, although most just suck.

These guys are GREAT!

Just watched it. Really really enjoyed it. I agree man, those two guys had amazing chemistry.

I didn't read any reviews, but if they graded this film poorly, that's just another reason to keep on ignoring them.
