| I'm a doctor...and this was a good film (by aks1987) |
| Being a doctor myself, I never have seen any really good doctor movies. This film in particular was very well made. The acting was top notch especially by Orlando bloom. He played the doctor really convincingly. I understood what must have been going on in his mind and what he must be going through living all alone without any relationships whatsoever which might have been difficult to relate by others who are not doctors by the way hence the low rating here.I really liked how this film portrayed that how difficult it is being a doctor with a lot of responsibilities on them and a number of <more> |

| the essence of the movie - a story within a story (by tinairafa-58-744783) |
| This review is all about the metaphor of the movie and a psychological depiction of the characters.I was silently rooting for Dr.Black to keep on practicing medicine because he is a hard working, meticulous doctor who don't get the respect he deserves. It is the story of a dorky-bullied high school teenager who could never get the prom queen. It is one of those things, a person can not get over. Even though it is a serious, grown up movie it is all about proving something that was left unsaid. Even the mail nurse is portrayed as the typical bully who beats the nerdy kid and scares him off <more> |
| Exellet movie...allow me to break it down a little... (by kandace_c_campbell) |
| To everyone that is ignorantly saying that they don't go into detail and explain why he does what he does ie. Kill his patients ...I have to ask...disbyou not pay attention at all??? The doctor is lonely...no friends at work or outside of work because he is new. He became a doctor because he wanted the respect that came with the title he says so himself and he feels he isn't getting that from his fellow doctors or nurses. He takes a liking to his underage female patient. They share a lot of the same views and she gives him the respect, attention, and companionship during her stay <more> |
| Bloom is Superb in this Diabolical Thriller (by larrys3) |
| Although this movie is not for everyone, as evidenced by the low rating,I found it to be chilling and sinister and really enjoyed it. I thought Orlando Bloom was superb in the lead as a first year resident doctor at a hospital. On the surface he appears to be a shy nice guy who cares a lot for his patients. However, there's a lot of darkness boiling over that no one can see.When a beautiful vulnerable, young patient is admitted to the hospital for a rather routine kidney infection, Bloom becomes obsessed and emotionally attached to her. The patient is played admirably by Riley <more> |
| Good (by ctourteau) |
| This movie was a good one for several reasons. There was excitement and thrill from the very beginning to the very end. The pace and speed was just right. The viewers were left wondering what would happen next. The desire to keep watching was there. The main actor was very handsome. And since it was a romantic movie it made it even better. I really enjoyed the story. The ending of a movie is important also as it will affect the overall rating. There could have been several different endings to it. I was hoping for one type of ending. Although it was not what I had hoped for I still enjoyed <more> |
| Quite good actually (by Thrill_KillZ) |
| Once you read the plot summation or have viewed the trailer you may think they have shown their hand with this but what unfolds is a much larger picture as the viewer is introduced to DR. Martin Blake. He is new at the hospital having just begun his residency there. Lonely, he seems to be an outsider, never having the girl or the attention he wants most. Until he is introduced to a new patient he will be in charge of named Diane. He & the 18 year old Diane seem to quickly forge a bond, a bond that Martin is determined to keep, thus he meddles with her medication & test results, <more> |
| Engrossing (by juin67) |
| Working as a nurse in the medical field I have to say that this was one of the more realistic depictions of what the working environment is like. All the actors in this film did an excellent job portraying their roles with realism. There are, of course, some scenes that were not accurately depicted but overall the production of this movie was well done. Orlando Bloom surprised me, I had no idea he was this talented. I felt he did an excellent job conveying the moral conflicts that those in the medical field may experience. There were a few parts of the movie that I felt could have been <more> |
| histrionic Orlando Bloom in a thrilling movie (by silviafranco) |
| An unseen Orlando Bloom captures you in this movie like he has never done before. He is seen in the 80% of the time with intense close-up and histrionic facial expressions. Martin is capable doctor, he is really alone in his life. One day he meets a teen patient, Diane Nixon, and he cares her. When she is released, her parents invite Martin for a dinner at their home. During this visit, Diane is not present because she is trying to get back with her boyfriend. Martin visits her room and steals a picture of her. Diane leaves a message on Martin's answering machine in which she apologizes <more> |
