The Bucket List

(USA, 2007, 94 minutes)

Two men diagnosed with incurable cancer decide to go out in style, by performing all the items on their list of things to do before you die. Amiable star vehicle that is unsure whether to go for sober weepie or light black comedy and ends up being neither, but still provides some fun along the way largely thanks to its well-cast (if typecast) stars.
