documentary-like feature film

I've seen Manslaughter 2, and the reviews are very bad. The title says that it was adapted from this, so take the original movie and see if it is the original pot.

Chen Sicheng said that it was an adaptation and remake, but in fact, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a reproduction. The original version honestly talks about the problem of poor people who lack effective medical insurance and cannot afford to see a doctor. More people feel their disgust for the police, and the condemnation of the rich is only a few words. For manslaughter 2, the common suspense of Chen Sicheng was added, which is the adaptation part. The Health Bureau worked with the senior officials above to sell human organs. The confrontation between the rich and the poor was changed to the gang of bad officials. unstable factor.

Forced to use a tiled positive sequence to tell the story, the context is clear, but it is too bland. The only thing that moved me in the whole play was the place where the male protagonist decided to shoot himself in exchange for his heart, but I don't know if it was a editing problem in my version. When the male protagonist was about to shoot the second shot, it suddenly turned to everyone being saved. . This has been explained so clearly before, why bother to sell suspense here...

The movie explains the sense of disobedience in Manslaughter 2, why all the good medical resources are concentrated in a small Chinese hospital, and the powerful robbed other people's hearts and had to operate in the same hospital; It is a good private hospital, and there is no problem with the life of the rich and powerful. It is simply whether the money is enough. It is very capitalist. The male protagonist can live alone in a hospital emergency center. There is almost no resistance or even helping him in what he is forced to give. Then this makes sense. People are normal people, not Bond. . Even if the little boy in the back can attend his father's trial, it makes sense. The trial process in the United States will take half a year to complete, which is much more reasonable than the funeral two months later.

It is said that this movie borrows from another movie, I will look for it later.

    I heard that "Manslaughter 2" was adapted from this film, let's take a look. From a story mixed with family affection similar to "Afternoon on a Hot Day", it gradually turned to social issues, and at the end, the combination of the film's fictional stories and realistic documentaries raised the theme of the film.

John Q quotes

  • [last lines]

    Mike Archibald: Dad! Thank you.

  • John Q. Archibald: [standing next to him] Just try to stay awake for a minute, son, I need to tell you a few things.

    Mike Archibald: [in a containment room inside the emergency room] Okay, Dad.

    John Q. Archibald: You always listen to your mother, understand? Do what she tells you to do. She's your best friend. Tell her you love her every day. You're too young for girls right now but there's gonna come a time, and when it does, you treat them like princesses, because that's what they are. When you say you're gonna do something, you do it. Because your word is your bond, son, that's all you have. And money, you make money if you get a chance. Even if you gotta sell out every once in a while, you make as much money as you can. Don't be stupid like your father - everything is so much easier with money, son. Don't smoke. Be kind to people. If somebody chooses you, you stand up, you be a man. And you stay away from the bad things, son. Please, don't be caught up in the bad things - there are so many great things out there for you. I'll never leave you. I'm always with you, right there

    [in your heart]

    John Q. Archibald: . I love you son.
