Went to see this movie this weekend. It is a Rob Reiner film that deals with death and how these two guys played by Morgan Freeman and Jack Nicholson deal with a prognosis that they have terminal cancer and months to live. It makes for a movie that while it has some great comedic moments, its about a difficult subject. How do you handle that type of news? What would you do in such a situation? How about faith? Would such a notice cause you to find god? As they travel the world, there are dialogs on how different cultures handle death and the afterlife. Overall, I enjoyed the film. Its a good story with good actors. The comedy is enough to help you connect with the characters so the impact with the end comes, does evoke an emotional response. At least it did in the theater I was in. IT definitely makes you think.
