    True actors

    A beautiful film brilliantly acted.

    An emotional ride of the lives of two dying men coming to grips with the end of their lives. Freeman and Nicholson gel together so well as they form a friendship which will leave you with tears in your eyes and a smile on your face.

    A Good Film With A Deep Meaning

    I didnt get to see this in the cinema so obviously I rented it of here! The main actors Freeman and Nicholson were perfectly casted, they showed an on screen connection which made the plot believable. It had happy laugh out ooud moments, then it had the tear jerker moments. The end of the film even though it is sad, makes you smile, and is doing what is intended. I find this film makes you think about what you want to do with your life, A good film with a deep meaning. I do Recommend
