NOT ALL SURGERY IS INTENDED TO CURE. DON’T MOVE A MUSCLE.
Can you afford to have moral standards in the fight against cancer? This thriller shares similarities withĀ ComaĀ (1978) in the way it deals with questions regarding medical ethics. Some critics didnāt think Hugh Grant was right for the part of the curious doctor who discovers that dead patients disappear from his ER, but heās actually quite engaging. Gene Hackman really is the one going through the motions as another boring villain. There are exciting sequences, but it all becomes too illogical and predictable.
