My Reviews on the Movie John Q
John Q was︵an ︵average man whose life revolved around his family. His wife Denise and young son Michael are the heart︵of his heart and the center︵of his world. But the quiet life was over when Michael fell seriously ill and needed an urgent heart transplant. John soon learned that his insurance couldn’t cover the bills and he had no real hope of raising the cash himself. But, he vowed to do whatever it would take to keep his son alive. With time and options running out, a desperate gamble became his only hope – he took the hospital emergency room hostage ['hɑstɪdʒ]. John succeeded in saving Michael’s life even though he had to spend sometime in jail. The whole event caused a heated discussion across the country and promoted the improvement of American health care system.
