When he discovers that his medical insurance won't cover the costs of the surgery and alternative government aid is unavailable, John Q. Archibald (Denzel Washington) takes a hospital emergency room hostage in a last-ditch attempt to save his child.

    First time I watched this I was 17-18 years old in my high school Psychology class when we were going over moral dilemmas. The whole "doing something bad to do something good" point.
    Now that I'm older, it's scary how the healthcare part of the story is still relevant after all this time.

    • @nikkof5384
      @nikkof5384 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      When I was younger I looked at the moral dilemma as ultimately he did close to no harm, but I understood he broke the law and was punished.
      Now my perspective is, multiple companies/institutions commit fraud, malpractice, negligence, manslaughter, and conspiracy in this movie, if they were people they would be in jail. Why aren’t they even serving a single repercussion? Hell if you need someone to charge look at the Admin lead who refuses to put Mikes name on the donor list because it would result in the hospital needing to treat him. She changes her mind after a heart string tug, think of the countless who died because they deemed it not worth it to put their name the donor list, in fear of eating a surgery cost. A doctor basically says you would have to have been blind not to see Mikes condition developing but neither the hospital, insurance agency, nor his previous doctors were reprimanded. Hell the only one who got shit canned was the nurse who decided to say fuck it here’s what happened.
      John took people hostage, made threats, but ultimately only hit someone in self defense. Paid outta pocket for their food and tried his best to humanize the situation and let them know he intended no harm to anyone just wanted help for his son. They still charged the mother fucker for the heart, he has paid more than enough by the time Mike is done in the OR.
      I’d rather have watched a round of malpractice lawsuits, leading to insurance fraud lawsuits, finally with conspiracy and man slaughter charges for the admin. The part where she sees just how fast Mike gets a heart(same damn day) then pats herself on the back like she did good drives me insane.

But the dad refused and even had a standoff with a swat team. His son woke up and made a full recovery. But what is criminal is, that this movie is so overlooked. Great reaction😃

    I still recommend adding "The Manchurian Candidate" to your Denzel movie list for another perspective on his range as an actor.
    It was a little difficult seeing Anne Heche in this movie especially with the big car accident scene and the life and death discussions with the family.

    Saw this in the movie theatre when it first came out, alot of people left in tears. Most people don't realize the impact this movie had. It sparked one the fiercest debate about our healthcare system. There were literally healthcare professionals outside of movie theatres handing out flyers to contact your congressman/women to do something about it. It was a main theme that former president Barack Obama took on when he became president and created the Affordable Healthcare Act a.k.a Obamacare.

    You're really doing it with these Denzel Washington movies... And I am all here for it! I would recommend to you: Out of Time (2003) starring Denzel and Eva Mendes. It's more light hearted but the story as soon as it evolves off keeps you on the edge of your seat! It's not as hyped up as Man on Fire or the other Tony Scott directed movies which you'll get recommendations for sure by other people here but that doesn't mean it's any less good!

I've never seen a movie where there was that much crying throughout pretty much the duration of the movie. I heard numerous people flat out balling crying. Even my boys were sniffling a few times. Shit I definitely was. That part towards the end before the surgery where Denzel is giving his Son the guidelines to follow in life gets me every time. Shit, I teary eyed watching this reaction.

    I’m glad she finally reacted to this movie. John Q is one of those movies I feel is under appreciated.
    Something I’ve noticed at the beginning, the woman who crashed, in the beginning it looks like she’s looking up at the truck that’s about to hit her, but later on after John says that he’s waiting on an act of God, the camera cuts to the woman and it’s as if God is telling her that it’s time for her to die so that others may live; it just so happens that she’s an organ donor.
    Another thing, the hospital is called Hope Memorial, which I think is foreshadowing the main theme of the movie. I also like the compilation of scenes where the hostage crisis triggers conversations about health care in America.

    Such an amazing film. Denzel Washington did such a wonderful job in this film, but I also need to mention the director of the film, Nick Cassavetes, who I grew up watching as an actor in the early 80's. He followed in his father's footsteps, actor-director John Cassavetes, who was in the classic films Rosemary's Baby and The Dirty Dozen. His mother is actress Gena Rowlands. And the for Sasha at the end of the movie was for the daughter of Nick Cassavetes, who had heart problems very similar to the son in the movie.

    Just saying, this movie is a perfect reason as to why healthcare is a human right and should not be an industry to profit off of.

    Thanks for reacting to this highly recommended movie (based on comments in your previous Denzel movie reactions). Hands down an excellent performance by the cast with a compelling story driving it.

    On another note, That security guard played by Ethan Suplee was also on Boy meets World, American History X, Remember the Titans and others. He lost a lot of weight and is pretty jacked now.

    I guess Denzel Washington performance and this movie overall resonated with him.

    In the old days they used to refer to average citizens in the United States as "John Q. Public" it is why this film is called "John Q." because this story could happen to anybody. Hardworking, loving family and tragedy strikes medically. We pay all our working lives into medical insurance plans and yet they always seem to "somehow fall short of" what we actually need them for. I work in healthcare and it is a travesty how much stress and distress family members go through to get proper medical care and coverage and mounds of red tape and runarounds. This movie was and still is excellent. I almost feel that don't show it very often because the premise is too realistic and they don't want to give people any ideas when they too ultimately get screwed around by the healthcare system. Great reaction and this film never fails to make me cry. Denzel is an amazing actor and so was his on screen wife Kimberly Elise.

    7:10 My dad worked at the same company for 40 years. Covid hit him bad. He was near death. It crippled him and made him blind from kidney failure. He had to learn to walk again. His insurance, that he had paid into for 40 years, covered his hospital stay for 2 months. They also refused to pay for a nursing home. So I get a call one day from a proud, hard-working man, in tears, telling me the hospital is kicking him out that day and he has nowhere to go. He has been living on my couch for the past two years. And every time he tries to sign up for food stamps or disability, he is told he doesn't qualify because owned a truck last year or because his bank account of 800 dollars is too much money. I'm a veteran who fought in two wars and it's hard not to hate my country after this.
