A more serious approach would have added greater depth, making it a great film.....However, since we have seen both these actors perform similar roles countless times, their performances fail to excite us.....Tender moments like this make the film worth watching.....The Bucket List is directed by Rob Reiner, who sadly, has not tried to bring out exciting performances from two great actors..... ...
