Life is made up of one regret and another. When you finally face death, you will find that there are too many things worth trying in your life, but you have missed them mercilessly ... ……Edward Cole is the CEO of a health care institution. Maybe he doesn't know what "the tables are turned" means, and Edward, who has been actively promoting the business philosophy of "two beds in one room, no one can be special" all his life, has to ask for it and make plans to share a ward with others. But I still didn't forget to drink his kopi luwak, a precious water of gold, and invited Carter to taste it, although he was rejected.
Carter Chambers, Edward's roommate in the hospital, is a mechanic from a completely different world. Two people who can't get together in the same pole have an intersection in the last few months of their lives. Although Carter was born in the working class and worked as a mechanic all his life, in fact, he always dreamed of becoming a history teacher one day, but fate and unexpected events disrupted his plan ... As you can imagine, this pair of 6-year-old people didn't get along at first, because the status difference was too wide, Carter showed a humble and easy-going humility everywhere, and the only similarity between them seemed to be only the remaining life. During their stay in the hospital, illness tormented them. Edward, like a child who just came to kindergarten, knows nothing about the hospital. At dinner time after chemotherapy, he was still lamenting that pizza could not be better, but he vomited in the bathroom at night under Carter's expectation. Edward complained about everything in the hospital. He couldn't stand lying in the hospital. The Carter family has already accepted his cancer calmly and is ready to fight, especially his beloved wife Virginia, a woman who has been a nurse all her life. The days were boring until one day, Edward's attending doctor told him that he had only six months to live. At that time, Edawrd was watching the game with special glasses; Facing the doctor's regret, he only said one sentence: "doctor, you are blocking my sight." And Edward's last request to the doctor is to know how long Carter has left. When bad results come together, two people become grasshoppers on the same line, and two people who were once irrelevant have become people who live together. Carter even had a big fight with his wife at all costs, left his family behind and started a trip with Edward.
Carter has a secret notebook, which records all the wishes he wanted to do but never realized. He calls it "The Bucket List". Edward inadvertently peeked at the list that Carter took out from time to time. This person who never believed in God and only believed in himself first said a lot of nonsense to the list, and then made a decision on his own: to travel around the world with Carter to realize the wishes on the list ... Of course, as a billionaire, Edward has sufficient reasons to add his wishes to the list. Edward scoffed at Carter's wishes of "helping a stranger", "laughing to tears" and "enjoying the most magnificent scenery". His wishes seem much crazier, such as "kissing the most beautiful girl in the world", "tattooing", "skydiving", "going to Egypt to see the pyramids" and "hunting lions". Because of their common desire, they traveled all over the world-polar ice sheet, India, Cairo, Beijing, Hong Kong, Tibet ... < P > Soon, Edward and Carter experienced all kinds of adventures, including jumping out of the plane in the sky, driving a Ford Mustang racing car, visiting the pyramids, taking part in hunting expeditions, etc ... When they were flying in the sky, Carter When they were racing, Carter drove his beloved racing car, drifting and hitting Edward, which made Edward shout excitedly, "You aroused the evil in my heart." On the African prairie, two people, like old friends for many years, sang "Lions are sleeping tonight" loudly. Edward also advocated a night-long carnival with dancers, but Carter, who loves his wife deeply, refused this behavior, even though Edward insisted: "indulgence does not mean infidelity, but occasional relaxation and memory." When two people were in Egypt, they sat on a high place looking at the pyramids and told many secrets. Including Edward's only daughter Emily, a wayward strong woman who is in love and misunderstood her father. Her beloved husband hit her twice, and Edward, as a tough father, used the underworld to settle his son-in-law, causing his daughter to swear at him. Edward, who is also a strongman, is deeply afraid of his daughter. He hasn't contacted her for a long time just because her daughter said, "You are dead in my heart". At the same time, Edward said that this should be counted as "enjoying the most magnificent scenery", but Carter insisted on going to his mountain-Mount Everest. But the Himalayas didn't welcome them. They missed the climbing season, and the next time after six months, they should have passed away. Two old friends decided to put the plan on hold because of this "setback" and Virginia's phone call. It was not until in Hong Kong that Carter met a beautiful black girl and refused the girl's invitation for a romantic night. He suddenly decided to go home.
On the way back, Carter and Edward broke up in discord, only because Carter arranged a meeting between Edward and his daughter privately. At the door of his daughter's villa, Edward was angry. He thinks that he is not an ordinary person. He doesn't need someone to die with him like others. He doesn't want to beg for mercy like his daughter. Edward tore up his list and walked away. After returning home, Carter and his family spent their last days happily, while Edward was angry with convenience food and even cried alone. Until one day, Carter suddenly fainted, cancer cells transferred to his brain, and death approached them again. Carter fell ill again, lying in his hospital bed. He took out a piece of paper, which introduced the origin of kopi luwak. This expensive thing turned out to be cat feces, and the two friends began to laugh until tears came out. Carter took out his list, crossed out "Laughing to tears" and gave him to Edward. The two friends were reluctant to part, but they did. Carter went into the operating room and never came out; Edward took Carter's letter, went to his daughter's house and kissed his granddaughter, the most beautiful girl in the world. Compared with the shooting at this moment, the film is experiencing death and parting, while experiencing mutual recognition and hug. Behind the tears and smiles, there is a special light of life. At Carter's funeral, Edward, who has never attended such an occasion, made a touching speech. After the funeral, Edward worked miracles and died at the age of 81.
At the end of the film, it ends on Mount Everest. Edward's secretary, a young man who had no feelings for his boss, helped the two old people to fulfill their last wish in The Bucket List-to enjoy the most magnificent scenery. When he reached the summit, he dug up an iron box and put Edward's ashes side by side with Carter's ashes. The box containing their ashes turned out to be kopi luwak's tin can, just as they discussed outside the Taj Mahal-Carter didn't like to call it an urn, but he liked to call it a jar. When everything was arranged, the secretary took out the list of two people and crossed out the plan of "enjoying the most magnificent scenery" specially prepared for Mount Everest. In my tears, I heard Carter's voice: "Finally, our ashes were buried on the highest mountain in the world, but this is illegal, and I believe Edward will like it."
As the items on the list are crossed out one by one, there are more wishes to join. In the last few months of their lives, Carter and Edward really understood the meaning of life. They used the insight and sense of humor given to them by time to make their lives completely complete, and at the same time discovered the true self that had been hidden. When life is coming to an end, it blooms heartily, just like infinity in a kopi luwak jar.
