[编辑] 電影大綱
故事從一間醫院的病房正式開始。戲裡的兩個主角:卡特·錢柏斯(摩根·費曼飾)和愛德華·科爾(積·尼高遜飾演)在那間病房內首次碰頭。卡特是一名非常聰明的人,對歷史非常熟悉,也有一個美滿的家庭。他的志願是當一個歷史教授,但是因為他年輕時的社會風氣(黑人不得做高薪的工作),和他的女朋友懷有他的孩子,他被逼淪為一家車房的修理員工,過一個藍領工人的生活。愛德華與卡特剛剛相反。他是富商一名,但是個人脾氣非常古怪。多次離婚也使他的家庭生活欠奉。他們一起接受治療,也變成了好朋友。
當卡特和愛德華雙雙得到末期癌症的壞信息後,卡特開始寫下他臨死前想做的事情。愛德華看到那張清單後就決定利用他(將來帶不進棺材)的錢和卡特做他想做的事。雖然卡特的老婆極力反對,卡特也同意跟愛德華實現他死前的夢想。
他們倆就開始環遊世界。他們首先去玩高空跳傘,然後租了兩輛懷舊跑車去賽車。然後,他們去了攀登金字塔,去了非洲打獵,還嘗試攀登喜馬拉雅山,但是大雪令到他們不能攀登。在路途當中,他們倆談及了他們對家庭和信仰的意見。談及途中,愛德華發現卡特隊他妻子的愛越來越小。卡特也發現愛德華對他女兒離棄他非常痛心。當年,愛德華發現了他女兒被她的丈夫虐待,所以他派了一些人去好好地「招呼」她女兒的丈夫。愛德華的女兒知道以後就與她爸爸脫離關係。愛德華一向對此事非常傷心。
在香港,一個已經知道卡特從來沒有跟另外一個女人做過愛的愛德華為卡特請了一名妓女。卡特然後發現他對他妻子的愛還是非常地深。所以,他最後拒絕愛德華的好意,還想回家與家人團聚。為了答謝愛德華的好意,卡特私下地與愛德華的助理協定,在回到美國的時候幫愛德華與他的女兒修補關係。但是,愛德華沒有勇氣面對他的女兒,所以他一時發難,離開卡特。卡特就這樣地返回他的家,與他的妻子和家庭快快樂樂地重聚。
可是,快樂的時間非常的短。卡特的癌症已經擴散到他的腦部。諷刺的是,和卡特一樣患有末期愛德華已經康復。愛德華在公司開會時收到這個消息後立即趕到醫院探望卡特。在這時,愛德華就向卡特解釋世界上最貴的咖啡是甚麼製做出來。原來麝香貓咖啡(Kopi Luwak,也是愛德華最喜歡的咖啡)是由吃咖啡豆的麝香貓排泄出來糞便中提煉而成的。卡特聽完以後就與愛德華大笑一頓,與此同時也完成了清單上一個願望:笑到哭為止。當時,深知自己時日無多的卡特說服愛德華要自己完成清單內沒完成的願望。
過了不久,醫生為卡特進行了腦部手術。愛德華離開醫院時開了卡特留下給他的信。卡特在信內說雖然他與愛德華的旅程最後不歡而散,但是,如果他可以再選擇的話,他也會選擇與愛德華環遊世界。卡特也叮囑愛德華要尋找他生命裡的歡樂。愛德華看罷信後就去了他女兒的家探訪她,與此同時嘗試修補關係。愛德華的女兒不但原諒愛德華,還介紹她的女兒給愛德華。愛德華從來沒有知道他是別人的爺爺。在他擁抱和親吻他孫女後,愛德華也完成了清單上一個願望:與世界上最美麗的女子親吻。
卡特的手術最後失敗,卡特也在手術桌上去世。愛德華在卡特的葬禮中歌頌了卡特,還說卡特最後的日子是愛德華一生中最開心的。與任何人一樣,愛德華最後也離開了人間,終年81歲。愛德華吩咐了他的助理把他的骨灰放在卡特的旁邊。他們倆就葬在喜馬拉雅山上(是非法行為)。
