Cebalord Very best movie i ever watch

SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped

Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Lachlan Coulson This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.

santiagocosme A father who has been paying his life insurance for years discovers that this company won't pay for the medical assistance of his dying son who needs an urgent heart transplant. Seeing that the hospital is making millions every years and that one operation would mean nothing to them, he tries to persuade them to make a benevolent act and help his son. When they refuse, he decides to lock himself inside the hospital armed with a gun and starts negotiating with the police to get what he won't get otherwise. While all this occurs, a TV channel is able to wire the cameras inside the hospital and the whole world is watching both sides of the story: a gunman who desperately wants to save his son, and the police department who wants to make sure that everyone gets out of there in one piece. I found the movie quite entertaining and again a great act by Denzel Washington who is beyond a doubt one of the best actors of his generation. You should enjoy especially knowing that such an act of craziness or faith is actually based on a true story!

Vadim Mihailov This is the movie about real life, about real people. This could happen with anybody, even if you think that you insured. Who are we? Home sapiens? Zombies? Slaves of the God? Fellows? People? Nevermind. We are mortals! This is 100% true. We are human beings with minds and hearts. Keep this legacy all your time. This is very important to remember who you are and understand a reason to being here near to other human beings. Of course this is important to find the way, but the main point is keep it right. Sorry for my English. Thank you guys for this movie.

ahzach-574-590248 Ugh. The whole movie is just a bunch of propaganda about free, universal health care. The story is moving and the acting not bad. In the end it actually tells you that we should have universal health care. Just liberal Hollywood propaganda. Maybe one of the most liberal films ever made. Conservatives and non-socialists don't watch it will hurt you nerves.(speaking from personal experience). Of course, the kid should not be left to die; private charity is way better than government welfare, something that the film deliberately hides. It is so one-sided and wants to present all people opposing socialist health care as evil. I know this is a film of 2002 but if it was made today it would be a good propaganda weapon for Obama's socialist policies.

perkypops If you want to know how to make a film which tells a story, makes several potent points, exposes how shabby life is, and sticks one in the eye of the establishment, then this does it, and has it, all. Super script, super storyline, super acting (across the board), goodies, baddies, and those who change their spots for us, and all packaged in a quite breathtaking order. It has suspense in oodles. It is superbly shot, superbly soundtracked, and cleverly stays completely focused on how morality is a political tool used against ordinary people.And this film hasn't aged a bit. It is as sharp and relevant now as it was when first released. It is worth any money to see simply because it is a lesson in the art of constructing a masterpiece that'll have us talking days after we have seen it.(Still) An excellent film.
