The movie John Q is about a ordinary family in U.S.A that has a boy with a heart failure. John did not have enough money to save his son from the diseases so then his wife told him to do "something". So he did, he went to the hospital and kidnapped the people that was in there and locked them all in. The police came, called him and asked him what he wanted and he told them that they want his child at the top of the donar list. They did not listen, and try to kill him. After he requested to get mikey in the hospital with him, there was no hope, he was dying. He wanted to donate his heart and threatened the doctor to do it. He had to kill himself to give him the heart, but at the same time there was a women that had a heart that matches mikey's heart. He almost killed himself for nothing. At the end he goes to jail, but it was all worth it becuase his son is still alive.
Overall, I think this is a great movie, not just because of the story line, but also because of the actor Denzel Washington. I personally think that he did a very good job of acting out a character like that, i could tell how much he loved his son and how much he wanted to save his life. This movie tells a lot about the poor people in U.S.A without medical insurance and I understand how their feelings might be.
