It's a good movie. Very moving and carried by a spectacular performance by Al Pacino. Contrary to e.g. Ford and De Niro, Pacino is one of the few actors who haven't lost their touch over the years.

`Jack Kevorkian: I have a religion, his name is Bach. Johann Sebastian Bach. And at least my God isn't an invented one.` Great drama about Dr Kevorkian`s fight on euthanasia. Impressive acting from Al Pacino.

It makes perfect sense that a movie about a controversial subject does not present a clear cut favoritism either way. Jack is Pompous, Merciful, Uncaring, Dramatic and Sympathetic.

Decent flick. Grew up just outside Detroit, so we saw a lot of the TV coverage back in the day.

I have a feeling Pacino's career-best-or-close-enuff turn as Roy Cohn in ANGELS IN AMERICA steered him towards this series of American pariahs (PHIL SPECTOR and PATERNO being the other two) as a kind of late-career legacy-stamping. This is the best of the three all around and the most important in light of "progressive" efforts to erase all agency from suicide. I'm not conflating terminal cases and healthy folk. Real insanity is thinking no sane person could possibly choose to leave this world.

A fascinating biopic with a stellar performance by Pacino. As a typical leftie European, the story of Kevorkian had largely passed me by. Even given the obvious bias this telling has, it's still an eye-opening account of the lengths private healthcare interests and religious extremists will go to to prevent the work of someone who dares to stand up for human beings at the expense of profit.
