SoTrumpBelieve Must See Movie...
Mjeteconer Just perfect...
StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
ucaiii Oh, I like this show very much. I am a fan of hospital shows and like to see how modern medicine can cure people. I like it that it that it does not revolve around the animal sex drives of the doctors and hospital staff like Grey's Anatomy and Private Practice.I do however disagree with how they represent the way organs are procured. First of all, organs are very rarely every procured as fast as they portray and also the donor and recipient NEVER know each other.How do I know this? I had cornea transplants in 1980 and 1982. I had to wait 6 months for a donor on the 1st eye and 5 months on the 2nd almost loosing my eyesight both times.I was NEVER told who my donors were. A party to introduce donor families and recipients??? No way! Simply unheard of and illegal, at least in my state.I have been president of the board of directors for my state eye bank and on that board for 4 years. I even do on Pony Express runs getting donated eyes to people who need them in a hurry and they will not even let ME find out who my donors were, even after all these years.I have NO access to the list. Today, I see 20/30 and 20/25 thanks to my donors.Love the show, just not entirely realistic in some areas.
Natalie Shif The reason I've started to watch this show was Alex o'Loughlin. I've seen him not only as Mick St-John at "Moonlight", but also playing other roles, and I'm convinced that he is a very good actor and he is a person which continues to develop. First episodes of "Three Rivers" were more or less disappointment for me: too straightforward plots, no deep characters, difficult to believe acting. Alex o'Loughlin was so great at "The Incredible Journey of Mary Bryant" and at "Moonlight", I couldn't forget his touching performance at "Criminal Minds", but here! - Dr Andy Yablonsky was too sweet, too humane and not real human. It was like he and the other actors were confined to the two-dimensionality by the whole two-dimension framework of the show. Starting from somewhere fourth episode I've noticed the incredible improvement. The last episodes till now were really good and enjoyable, they revealed creative thinking and talented actors. I hope the show continues this way and wish it be long living with its good heart pace.
ltremaine What a turkey! I adore Alex O'Loughlin. Loved him in Moonlight as Mick St. John. But this show is so dull and lackluster. I don't expect it last more than few weeks at best. Sorry Alex. Its pretty bad IMO.Its not the right format for him. Maybe a vampire surgeon would be more interesting? CBS, don't try to steal House M.D.'s thunder.Alex could be a major breakout star with the right vehicle, but this isn't it! So far, the biggest drawback to both his series, is they try to be too flashy and stylish in their production values. Go back to the drawing board please. Alex deserves better than being given this crap to star in!
MistressKitty I don't even know where to begin with how awful this show was.I didn't expect much from the previous bad reviews,but since I usually love medical dramas,I decided to give it a try.Big mistake.First off,the actor Alex O Loughlin was the most unbelievable doctor in the history of TV.Whoever thought this guy was a good enough actor to carry a show needs a doctor themselves.The man simply cannot act and certainly cant act well enough to star in a show.The whole feel of the show was bad,the acting,the writing,the stories,etc.I cannot express how unwatchable it was.I give this show two,,maybe three more weeks before it is rightfully canceled.CBS needs to cut their losses and stop trying to make AOL a star. Also,the other person,the woman who diagnosed pica,which any one with half a brain watching could have done,was a very unlikeable character.She has a very unpleasant demeanor about her. Her look,her voice and her so called acting.I at least thought Daniel Henney might be some fun for the eye candy factor,but his one dimensional performance couldn't make him look good in any aspect. Who in the world cast this show? Alfrie Woodard had no role and neither did any of them really.We didn't get any feel of any person or their personalities on the show. I of course will not be tuning in again and if you have any sense,you wont either. 0/5
