John Q

Description
After suffering a man named John Archibald because of the lack of help he needs for a son who needs a transplant that may save his life, John begins to think about a solution to the real disaster that puts his son's life at risk. John is still suffering from his son's illness because his medical insurance will not cover the cost of surgery needed by his child and alternative government assistance is not available because of the national health care crisis in America. The man has decided to take illegal action to protect his sick child - to hold the hospital's emergency room hostage to save the life of his long-suffering son.

Cassavetes thinks he's making Dog Day Afternoon with a cause, but all he's done is to reduce everything he touches to a shrill, didactic cartoon.

Thought-provoking. Too intense for young teens.

Instead of presenting the story and allowing us to draw our own conclusions, Cassavetes blatantly tells us what we should think.

It pulls out more stops than that old silent serial The Perils of Pauline. Unfortunately, it's a talkie.

The movie comes dangerously close to saying that the solution to a personal grievance is, well, terrorism, when you get right down to it.

Manipulative sentimentality, contrived plot and phony climax.

Social messages, simplistic action, and teary melodrama are manipulatively but unsuccessfully mixed in this picture, which tries to provide a "hard" look at an honest working-class man (Washington) who loses control while trying to save his child's life

A sappy, melodramatic Denzel Washington vehicle that ensnares you in the standard hostage-movie scenario and doesn't let go until the director runs the whole playbook.

A coercive script by James Kearns, and some middling direction by Nick Cassavetes, can't rob the movie of an undeniable, headlong crowd-pleasing power as it tackles an issue that touches us all.
