LIBERTAS REVIEW: The Bucket List

| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)
Here's one of the wittier movie reviews I've read in some time.

There’s just one problem. Carter’s a married man with three grown children and yet with less than a year to live he bids his loving and faithful wife goodbye to fulfill all the dreams his familial responsibilities kept him from realizing. The script works hard to rationalize this but in the end it was impossible for me to accept Carter’s choice as anything other than a terribly selfish one, making The Bucket List another piece of damning evidence that those who make the movies today are so hopelessly out of touch with the rest of us it’s no longer funny. The trial to prove this correct would be a short one: “Your Honor, I found a dying Morgan Freeman unsympathetic.” Case closed.
