This movie will break you. This shows how far a parent will go for their child.
That speech his friend gives and says "I'm in there with you john" gets me everytime.
This movie hits differently when you grow up and have children of your own.
exactly this
Fun fact, the movie isn’t based on a true story entirely but inspired by an event that took place in Toronto Canada. Although the perpetrator in Toronto was killed by police while John Q survived.
As a disabled American who is very sick, I can confirm that this is the reality we still live with. I am unable to work a traditional job and therefore don't get any sort of insurance through an employer, and can't afford it on my own. I don't get disability benefits either, because the government has ridiculous amounts of red tape and legal loopholes to avoid giving help to people who genuinely need it. The only help I get from the government is food stamps, otherwise I'm left to deal with my multiple conditions on my own even though I'm physically incapable of working a regular job. Fortunately I found a work from home gig that pays well this year, so my quality of life is improving, but I spent about 10 years barely hanging on with minimal treatment for my conditions and living off my family. It's been very difficult. I can't imagine how I would react to watching my child go through what I've gone through. I don't have any kids (because I didn't get treatment for years, I essentially missed out on the period of my life when I would have had children), but I imagine it would be unbearable to watch them suffer.
To answer your specific question: if you don't have money or insurance, they absolutely will turn you away at the hospital. Like the guy in the movie said, they just have to stabilize someone and then they can kick them out. It's happened to me plenty of times. Last time was I for vomiting for days until I was so dehydrated that I was having seizures, they just gave me IV fluids to stabilize me and then kicked me out without treating the underlying problem of twisted ovarian cysts, which I'm still dealing with years later because I can't afford the surgery. I am in need of 2 surgeries and a biopsy but can't afford them. So, I just live with the symptoms. It's pretty crappy most of the time, to be honest. I try to stay positive and still enjoy life, but I do have some really rough days, and my good days are rare. Today's a pretty good day, though, so there is that! :)
As for the movie, it's not based on a true story, but I believe it was inspired by a man who attempted to rob a bank to pay for his child's medical bills, which is absolutely heartbreaking. I think the movie didn't do very well, and was called "manipulative," but I think it's a great movie with a phenomenal cast. Everyone in it was awesome.
I had insurance and was still sent home with an ovarian torsion. Then had to be sent back as soon as my doctor got the report. They just monitored it instead of removing it. Ive had 37 documented cysts some smallish some the size of a tennis ball. I bled for 1 year straight. They did blood transfusion but never tried to find out why I was bleeding. I was bleeding because my IUD i begged for them to remove vecause I was in constant pain since it'd been implanted was suprise, implanted incorrectly. It was embedded in my service after being clamped onto it with the t part during insertion. So it held my cervix open the entire time. I've had 5 surgeries to remove cysts and growths in my uterus. They still won't do a hysterectomy because I'm 30. I've begged cried and pleaded. I have PCOS and endometriosis. I've had 2 kids and 5 miscarriages. They removed my tubes because of growths/cancer risks and said usually the cancer starts there but won't take anything else out. So whether you have insurance or the money or not the healthcare system here is HORRIFIC for women's health and I am so sorry you're going through that. Congrats on the job.
@@Valerie-co8th
Thank you for telling us your harrowing tale, I couldnt imagine being shipped off like it was nothing like that im so sorry that anyone would be treated this way.
This is the disgusting nature of a healthcare system that exists as a commodity.
When things are not run for profit, I am guessing the incentive to innovate is lost. Like if all medicine was free but we stopped innovating at asprin.
@jt8025 tell that to the majority of civilized countries that have universal healthcare. 🙄
@@jt8025that sounds like Big Pharma talking points.
@@jt8025 medical innovation will still occur so long as their are ailments and conditions to treat. And so long as people have the time to experiment with their passions.
America has the worst Healthcare
Fr they will kick you out the ambulance mid medical crisis it’s inhumane 👎
@@_Young_jedi evidence? Or do we just just take your word for it? Hyperbole in this way just makes you look like a liar
@@robbinsnest6163lol he’s obviously exaggerating but he’s not too far off honestly.. for ex. Ambulances are forced to take you but the min. cost of alone is 7-8k without insurance. Hospitals are only liable to keep you alive and stable enough but will kick you out right after even if ur having difficulties standing. Theres 100s of stories about hospitals forcing ppl out or literally walk a patient off hospital property and drop them off.. it’s fckd up here in America man.
Ps..You can research it too instead of being a sarcastic passive aggressive dik buddy
@@robbinsnest6163 He might have embellished, but he isn't completely wrong.
No we have the best it just cost money because we are the leader in the world for help
Denzel impression is top tier hahah
My dad was diagnosed with cancer and his medication was a little more $10,000 dollar per month, he died 3 months later because the health insurance didn’t cover the cost of the medication.
10,000 f-- dollars just to save you 🤦🏾♂️. God would never. Only man.
I am so sorry! that is not right!! the health care system is messed up. sorry for your loss.
Nobody does it like Denzel. I literally, went through a whole box of tissues watching this with you guys. Also, off subject, I love Jane's straw! I need one. Healthcare here in America, is exactly the same. They definitely tell you to go on welfare if you can't afford it. Even if you work hard and can afford it, you still end up paying out of pocket for certain situations (much like this movie). I stopped paying for insurance a long time ago when I found this out. Everything is a money grab. You guys are so blessed.
I was paying 250/mth for mine, only to be told I needed to pay more after all my procedures and tests. Make it make sense. I still suffer but I'd rather die than allow some money hungry insurance companies take from me. There needs to be a change.
I’m just so happy to see this 5 minutes after it was posted!
This is 100% my favorite Denzel Washington film.
John Q's Neighbor's Speech GETS ME EVERYTIME....Absolute Tear Jerker...And the Saddest Part is it gets more and more Relevant Every year.
As to your question, average income tax in the US is 14%. Health care is still crazy expensive and most people have health insurance through their employer.
I saw this movie as a kid. Now as an adult, after having worked as a social worker in the Healthcare system for a time, it hits differently. The scenes of John getting denied at every turn, being shuffled to the next person and then to be told he did the wrong paperwork infuriates me. Its so crushingly realistic.
Y’all need to watch the negotiator. Great flick with Samuel l Jackson
Like I mentioned before, this should have been Denzel's Oscar. Training Day was not his best work at all.
Man on fire is my favorite but I have trash taste too lol
Malcolm X was top tier, as well. What an incredible actor.
Also his performance in Hurricane.
Fck Man on fire was an amazing underrated or more unappreciated movie.. and so was Malcolm X but we all kno why he didn’t win 😂 no need to explain iykyk.. I gotta watch hurricane again tho, haven’t seen it again since watching it in theaters as a kid..
@@firegod001 Right, that entire film should've got laced with Oscars for real. Denzel actually spent time with Malcolm's brothers and sisters, he learned to speak Arabic and took on a Muslim diet for that role.
While not strictly 'true' per se, it was based on a similar event that took place in Toronto, Canada, in 1999. Henry Masuka rushed his son to the ER because he was having an asthma attack. The receptionist told him that there was no paediatrician on duty so he would have to wait 45 minutes. Panicking Henry pulled a gun and took the doctor on duty hostage. In the end, after a standoff, he was shot by police and later died in police custody. So, not the Hollywood ending.
I'm glad y'all reacting to this alot of people don't
This is one of those films that have perfect timing because it's relevant to how things are in America
I remember watching this movie before I was a father and it really didn't move me... I became a dad, saw this again and was crying so much lol
Btw (again) I'm surprised you guys haven't watched the Green Mile with Tom Hanks. You won't be disappointed.
IMO this was Denzel best performance of his career !!!
"Obama care tried" 😂😂😂
The line "IM NOT GONNA BURY MY SON, MY SON IS GONNA BURY ME!!! Broke me
In the movie, John Q was moved from full time to part time job. Which made changes to his insurance, including not covering the cost of the surgery. In real life, here in the US, most people who have part time jobs, don't qualify for benefits like health insurance. An old man once told me to get a job that offers benefits, because that means you will have good healthcare. If you have good healthcare, they will put you first and give you the best, but if you don't, they will put you at the bottom, or at the end of the line.
When most people mention Denzel movie catalog this movie is very under appreciated, I saw a lot of waterworks from y’all and I understood every reason why, the acting and emotion this film brought out was top tier
Anticipating something bad is one thing but when you realize it’s the absolute worst possible thing that could ever happen 😭😭 what a parent will do for their child ❤
The wife in this movie is so annoying. You know they would’ve divorced if John hadn’t staged a hostage situation because she was clearly going to blame him for “not doing something” if their son had died.
Yeah, Kimberly Elise's performance really bought her character to life n this, really made you feel a way. Like, damn woman I'm doing my best.
This is a fantastic movie. Really makes you look at some of the bad parts of medical insurance.
I watched this movie when it first came out and I was newly pregnant with my first son. I was emotional then. But watching this after my middle son was diagnosed with cancer at almost 12 (brain tumor), this movie is a really hard watch for me. I also had a sit down meeting just like that basically telling me chemo was no longer working for my son and if he didn't have the brain surgery to remove the tumor he would die. But initially surgery was off the table because it was too risky. We needed to do chemo first to try and shrink the tumor and it did but at some point it stopped working. There were points I had to fight the system too for him because I'll do anything for my boys. I mean honestly, if a movie was based on our experience, I feel it would be just as devastating because so many things happened and went wrong that we thought we were going to lose him on multiple occasions. A collapsed lung that ended up requiring surgery, a breathing apparatus and xrays EVERYDAY for about 2 weeks. And they would take it out but not give him enough time to try breathing on his own and just put it back. I fought with them until finally I took it out and got him breathing on his own. Which in turn got him to eating on his own without an NG tube (feeding tube). My baby couldn't talk, walk, eat or do anything on his own after that surgery. And there was a chance he may never walk or talk again. Speech therapy wasn't working. But I put a lot of music on for him and one day I heard a little sound next to me. He was trying to sing and it was coming out. I kept my cool and cried to myself later. The stories I could tell are insane. But I'm happy to report my son is now 17 and will be hitting year 5 of being cancer free in October but he is forever changed as there are lifelong effects from brain surgery and treatments. His vision, speech, fine/gross motor skills etc. But I'll take my baby anyway he is because he's still here ❤ Please advocate for your children because the doctors are not always right. As I told them, "you are an expert on the disease, I'm an expert on my son"
One of my favorites Danzel movies.
The first movie I watched with Denzel as a kid. I became a fan after watching this film! 🌹🙏🏾💯
John Q, as in John Q. Public, is a generic name people use to describe themselves as being an average Joe.
I once had a woman come through my line at work, and during our conversation she asked me if I was going to go back to school. I told her I had zero plans to, and she started to talk about how important it was to get an education. I explained to her that I had a full time job with EXCELLENT benefits. If I go back to school, I have to reduce my hours at work. If I reduce my hours, I lose my insurance. If I lose my insurance, my medication goes from $0 a month to $400 a month. With reduced hours, I can't afford as much, which will make paying for my medication difficult. Without said medication, it would be a matter of days before I would find myself in the ICU, which I definitely wouldn't be able to afford. I both literally and figuratively can't afford to get a higher education, because doing so will put my life at risk. All this to say, both the education and medical system here are messed up. One bad accident can put someone in debt for the rest of their lives. Because of my insurance through my job, I'm one of the incredibly lucky ones.
I love this movie.. So glad you guys reacted to this one..❤
This reminds me of that show Breaking Bad. Everyone hated Walter White. They all said he was evil and a criminal. Some said they couldn't stand him and just wanted to see him get arrested or die. Walter White and John Q are very similar men. Both are up against the wall and have to do something before its too late. Both take matters in to their own hands. When I watch Breaking Bad I see a great father that is willing to go to the depths of hell in the crime world at a great cost to himself in order to make the future better for his family. Walter White never took a long extended tip to Las Vegas where he was surrounded by young long legged busty women to boost his ego. He just worked and worked until he died. In my book he was a great father just like John Q.
I don’t think you fully understood Breaking Bad.
I don't normally comment, but when I first saw this movie, I saw it with my son, who was around 10 or 11. I hugged him for so long and so hard after this movie that he said mom I can't breathe 😂. Love you guys! Check out "The Hurricane " and "Antoine Fisher" people seem to forget about those amazing Denzel movies.
American health system is crazy with all their insurance. In my country it's included in our tax.
Yep ✌🏽💯💯💯
What country do you live in , if you don’t mind me asking?
In America, our taxes go to Healthcare for others, while those of us who don't qualify for that Healthcare, Obamacare subsides included, still have to pay for our own insurance.
Current insurance system really sucks but HMO's were basically just a scam.
My grandmother has dementia and we tried to get a nurse for her since she can’t take care of herself anymore and insurance would only cover 5 hours a WEEK, not a day… we ended up having to put her in a nursing home and sell her house to cover the cost of the home.
It's always a pleasure to watch the two of you and a special treat to have you react to my favorite Denzel movie. Btw @Jane: your darker lipstick may be a signature look on your channel but you do look stunning with your "toned down" look. 😊
I always imagined John Q would be safe and unhassled during his prison stay because I can picture the toughest, meanest inmates and gang leaders telling the other prisoners "Most of us wouldn't be in here if we'd had the kind of father would would go to the lengths John Q went for his son, so it's hands off this guy." I think he would have been respected and protected.
I've seen this numerous times and I cry everytime
Justin you’re so sensitive! I love it! 🥹
This has always been my favorite DW movie, he's great in everything but this is my fav. Hope you guys have a wonderful weekend!❤
Love the reaction & the new lipstick 👍🏾
I could sooo relate to you guys' reaction; I bawled when I first saw this! And, I think ANY parent would do the same thing.
(By the way, Jane, the natural look is cute on you!)
💖😎👌🏾💯
Great reaction I’ve never seen this movie before so I’m gonna watch it with you guys ✌🏽💯
This is such a great movie reaction channel love seeing the reaction of both of you 💯🔥
I really don't know if I can take you two watching this movie. I know you both are going to be emotional. I will watch it anyway - and cry along.
Love to see you are not hiding your emotions, especially on movies like these ✌️
It's so horrific to me that yanks have to even think about money at a time like that.
If anything, I think things have gotten worse since this movie - but it did help spark conversation about the problems.
In the US, most folks’ federal taxes are either 12% or 22% (if you make 100k, it’s 24%).
I used to work in medical insurance, and it’s as sick and corrupt as you can imagine.
I can’t speak for other states, but in my state, there is a program to cover kids like the one in this movie (where the parents make too much money to get Medicaid but not enough money to afford private insurance), so the situation of a child going thru this in my state would be extremely rare.
But if you’re an adult and you can’t afford coverage, you’re screwed.
The ACA (aka Obamacare) helped a TINY bit, but not nearly enough 💔
Hope you two are having an great and awesome day ❤
Finally yall reacting to it.
At this time this is EXACTLY what the health care system was like. It's just a tad better today and that's is because of Obama.
You guys should really dig into Denzel's filmography. And i don't mean the same handful of movies that everyone else reacts too. I'll talking about the other stuff. He has so many gems. People just started reacting to this movie but we have been asking for YEARS. You almost can't go wrong with his filmsm he has a few duds really early on his career but his performances were always great.
And why wouldn't you trek is what a great transplant would cost in Canada?
We want to know that. You want us to tell you about USA but you won't share? Lol! Do your part!
Many documentaries show that the privatization of U.S. health care including health insurance has inflated the prices of health care services, especially for surgeries.
he was more emotional than she was XD
Jane is correct, "Overqualification" for a job could mean multiple things. Like Jane said about her Bothers GF, Jobs may be hesitant to hire those with outstanding resumes out of fear of leaving the job as soon as they find something better.
Another meaning behind overqualified is just another way of saying, "we're not willing to pay you for what you are worth", you cost too much for their liking.
Then lastly, overqualified could very well possibly mean; the employer doesn't want to hire someone that knows just as much or more than they do as the case with (not all) most bosses/managers that have the need to always be in total control, in power and OVER everyone at all times; they certainly could not flex that same power with somebody that knows too much, ultimately making that person unmanageable or difficult to control compromising their authority of control which their egos and insecurities would not allow.
It all sucks!
16:10 From what I remember a grievance doesn't actually do anything it's just a complaint you can file a grievance with your insurance just because you feel a doctor or pharmacy was rude to you. Generally you'd submit an authorization request usually with help from the doctor then if that's denied an appeal but if the appeal in this case was approved that's the insurance saying they'll cover it(minus whatever copayment and deductibles you have).
Great great movie!!! Stellar performance by DW! 😊
Eddie Griffin lol the comedian guy.
Undercover Brother lol
His display of love for his son in this movie was amazing. Like the inverse of God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son to save it.
I’m not gonna watch this reaction because I have no desire to cry hysterically for an hour tonight, but I love this damn movie so much I must give it a like! I can’t watch it again though lol
Health care in America is horrific. But in some states, you cannot be be kicked off without any health care because it's based on how much you make. And anybody in America can buy into the Obamacare exchange and with government subsidies it's usually cheaper than job related insurance. I know my plan is cheaper so I buy into the exchange instead of buying into my jobs plan. Some states in America run by certain people refuse to accept government subsidies so that everyone who wants to be covered can be covered, which is stupid. But there is no reason that if Canada has universal health Care and so does most of Europe than the United States should have universal health Care as well but certain politicians and the people who vote for them refuse to want to be covered fully.
Duvall also really hood in “Falling Down” with Micheal Douglas
52:16 it’s a nightmare. I have a heart issue and can’t even afford he medication to help with. So I just gets worse. And when I have a full time job with insurance, the cost will be higher because my condition will get worse while I can’t afford my meds.
I didn't know you guys were in Canada so as HARD as it hitsbus American parents, to be unaware of the situation they would tace with insurance made this a double whammy for you guys! I had to wait to watch this until i could freely bawl my eyes out.
**u look beautiful either way, but i adore the red 💄 lipstick! I think it really pops!!!
Stealing from some to give to others is unjust & immoral. Charity is moral, forced theft is immoral
Ya know there is actually a true story similar to this...a father refused to let the doctors pull the plug on his son and was forced out by them then returned armed and bought time and just as he held his hand and begged for him to show he wasn't gone swat busted into the room and icu and his son squeezed his hand and as they tackled him and were arresting the father he screamed to them look and the doctors checked him and sure enough he was responding...he ended up saving his son's life the hard way.
It was reported after the movie came out it was based on a true story. About a father whos daughter needed a tranplant. Some parts was not the same but he held the hospital hostage
I work in the U.S. healthcare industry. As much as many Americans have indronidated to hate it. Medicare/Medicaid and the Affordable care act have saved more lives than private for profit insurance ever has.
This is the only Denzel movie I've ever seen
Don’t think this was based off a true story but there is a story of someone barricading himself in the room so they wouldn’t take his son off life support.
Too much experience means too much money we have to pay you.
I remember thinking how this movie should have won Denzel his first oscar and should have been a the catalyst to a conversation on how everyone should have access to healthcare based of need I'm so thankful I'm Scottish and have free healthcare and prescriptions and a kid will never not get treated for there illness or injury
Denzel already won an Oscar for best supporting actor for the film Glory.
@@williamwalsh1533 Sorry I was meaning best actor to be fair he should have few more done so many great roles that deserve more recognition like hurricane is fantastic very rarely and despite how much acclaim Denzel Washington gets feel he is underrated, again sorry for my wee mistake and to be fair this film should have got American's discussing the issue with the way they could prevent innocent children dying for things that medicine can fix
It’s always so interesting watching non-Americans react to our healthcare system.
I was lucky enough to see an advanced screening of this movie in late 2001. It was the first movie that I saw in theaters after 9/11. There wasn't a dry eye in the audience. But when it was released, it was a little bit of a dud. It made it's money back, but wasn't as big as expected. The critics hated it. I'm happy to see people reacting to it, because I still see it as one of Denzel's best performances.
If y’all haven’t seen hardball, you’d LOVE it. It has a feel like this movie. Just real. It’s not the same but it feels like it was cut from the same cloth
It was different back in the '80s and '90s, but nowadays if you're overqualified they're just going to tell you. Hey, you're worth $30 an hour but we only can pay you $15.
Great Reaction guys. 🙌💕
2 of my all time favorite Denzel movies are "THE PELICAN BRIEF" AND "THE PREACHER'S WIFE."
This movie was made over 20 years ago and sad to say, America's health system has not changed much since movie. Just a few days ago, there was a FedEx driver who suffered a heart attack while at work. Fortunately he survived, but he now needs a heart monitor implant to maintain his heart beat. To pay for it, he has to relay on gofundme to raise the money. That is the reality of America's health system.
Finally!!!thank you for reaction on this beutiful movie,another one based on facts with Denzel Washington is ANTWONE FISHER,you never gona forget this movie
That’s how the health insurance works u gotta meet a deductible to use it
I think the lipstick looks lovely, Jane! It makes your eyes really pop. Great reaction from you both. This movie still pisses me off and guts me at the same time. I loathe our health system. This is a rich man's world we live in and everyone else might as well just be NPCs.
I never liked and still don't like the fact his wife told him to do something, I understand she's emotional at the moment due to her son being in the hospital but Denzel character goin to jail was the best case scenario that could of went left real bad he could of been killed by the police like he almost did in the office and what would that have done if her husband was dead
Yes our Canadian health care system covers a heart transplant, it does not cost us any money. My friend's teenage daughter needed a double lung transplant, she got one in 2020, she did great, she got to graduate, go to prom but in the fall of 2023 so caught COVID and the infection caught in her lungs and her body started to reject the lungs, so she again needs another double transplant, so she is waitlisted now for another transplant but again that will be covered by our health care system. And this is another reminder that COVID is still here and to remember there are vulnerable people out there, so maybe we aren't masking but just be aware if you are sick and be careful who you are around.
This is accurate to American "health care."
About time
Health care in the US is absurdly expensive. If you are deemed you make "too much" you don't get it and you have to pay for it which puts you into a hole. 1 ER trip costs you 3,000 dollars.
I had an ER visit last year, cost was around $3200. After my insurance, I paid $180.
This movie is in my top 5!
Just a fantastic movie 🍿
Heres my view of healthcare as an american, it sucks unless you're a millionaire or never have a serious health issue. It's all based on profit. The insurance companies fight you on every turn and will look for any reason under the sun to deny coverage if they can.
People under Medicare and Medicaid have a far easier experience, but finding doctors who accept those is hard to find. But the care you get is generally good and there's little push back from the insurance companies.
If you need a major operation or are regularly sick and are paying for insurance out of pocket. You can easily end up in debt, even if you make 100-300k a year. But, again, if you're healthy and never have an issue besides general checkups and whatnot, you just pay 500-1200 a month for nothing. Just in case though.
It amuses me americans are fine with sending billions to other nations or spend billions on the military, but how dare we take care of each other.
Capitalism has indoctrinated nearly all Americans, it's the only system they know and they've been told since childhood that any form of socialism is evil. It's a selfish, consumerism society.
And yes, you will be thrown out on the street if you cannot pay for treatment. A lot of Americans don't get care they need because they simply cannot afford it. Eveything is absurdly expensive so paying out of pocket will destroy you unless you have 10s of millions.
There's lots of videos online about our healthcare. Should check them out to get a deeper dive.
Oh no.... 😭😭😭
ya know what, normally pass on this amazing film, but I have had a shotty couple weeks. I could use a good cry :( LOL o boy, here we go! ...
This movie is what inspired..along with other activists..that helped push d for the Obama care/affordable Care act in America..b-4 2009- this situation was common in the US..if u didn't have the right $ or worked for right company..u just "die"- & ppl overall thought that was normal .as insane as it sounds..b-4 Obamacare..this was the "norm" group think in america..& it disproportionately affected black & brown ppl the worse in the US..main reason most even 2day dont do annual health checks with dentist or family doc .ppl just figured that could b $ saved..
Oh shoot. You guys are religious? That a rare breed these days. I’m proud
LOL over 70 percent in the US are religious and it's the same in Canada. Stop with the persecution complex please. Only a quarter of people identify as secular and that doesn't even mean they don't believe in god. Religious people can be secular as well. So it could be as little as 10 percent or less that don't believe in god. I don't even think I met another atheist face to face.
If you want a really interesting perspective, I would recommend you guys watch Holden & Jen Hardman's reaction to John Q. Holden worked in the medical claims field for a long time so he tells the whole truth about how the American Health Insurance system works. It will blow you away
There are a lot of Americans who can’t afford health insurance
Ma'am you are dazzling. What made me think so more than what you, wore, or make up or hairstyles is the sympathy you showed to the characters in this movie.
This reminds me of some beauty advice given by Audrey Hepburn, who was a famous beauty, great actress, and wonderful humanitarian.
"For Attractive lips, speak with words of kindness.
For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people.
For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry
For beautiful hair, let a child run their fingers through it once a day.
For poise: walk with the knowledge that you will never walk alone."
I like your channel
