Synopsis: Corporate billionaire Edward Cole (Jack Nicholson) and working class mechanic Carter Chambers (Morgan Freeman) have nothing in common except for their terminal illnesses.

In the process, both of them heal each other, become unlikely friends, and ultimately find the joy in life.

My Review: Jack Nicholson, Morgan Freeman are both great in this movie. Awesome acting but the story is cutesy. The title/ trailer give the whole story away, heck the synopsis above give away the whole story. I am recommending this film. Some sappy girls may need a Kleenex and guys with a soft heart will get a “man-tear.” The best part of the film is Jack Nicholson, Morgan Freeman.
