The God Committee

This movie was okay. The story is intriguing, doctors making the life or death decision as to who gets a heart transplant. The acting was good. Kelsey Grammer and Julia Stiles did a nice job. The film lost its way a little in the execution. Threads were introduced, but not resolved. But all in all it was a decent movie with good acting.

Compelling and rewatchable. Excellent performances all around. Explores interesting medical dilemmas. It's cynical at times but realistic. A really good film for anyone interested in medical dramas.

There probably are not a lot of folks that will tune in to a movie about organ transplants so, a block buster it is not. None the less, this is a very real problem in healthcare. Far more need out there than availability. I found the film believable in the delivery. Good acting from the entire cast. Go sign up to be a organ donor and do something truly benefiting others in need and just maybe, keep big money out of the picture and save a pig.

A good storyline, featuring tense moments and an emotional ride, this is is a good one time watch.

Enjoyed this more than I thought i would. Very good acting, and I learned a lot about the organ world.

The God Committee has an intriguing story about doctors making the life or death decision as to who gets a heart transplant. Kelsey Grammer and Julia Stiles did a nice job. The film lost its way a little in its execution however. Threads were introduced, but not resolved. While the story was dramatic as it relates to the role of the transplant decision committee, the individual character didn't seem to get to complete their own journeys to a satisfying enough end. That being said it was a Decent drama with two good lead actors.

It was slow and besides the good cast and great acting I didn't find much to watch. It still was good to learn the decision process behind the organ transplantation.

The casting in this movie is very smart. I haven't seen a bunch of these actors in a film in a long time (Kelsy Grammer, Janeane Garofalo, Julia Stiles) and they're all great playing characters you wouldn't expect them to. Grammer is especially fantastic as a brilliant surgeon who's broken to the core. The movie is pretty intense, but if you appreciate strong performances you will enjoy it.

I took away 1 star for the simple reason that someone thought we could be fooled into believing that Kelsey Grammar and Julia Stiles were an actual couple. Yes, you read that correctly and yes, you may commence the vomiting. How Stiles would go for this curmudgeon was a major point of distraction but otherwise, it wasn't a bad movie. Solid acting and gives you a glimpse into what probably goes on behind the scenes at hospitals. I could've done without so many time jumps into the future and left the movie inside the conference room a là 12 Angry Men but still a very interesting premise and makes you feel for people who've been passed up for transplants simply for not being rich enough or having made one bad decision in their past. *spoiler alert* Money always wins, sadly.

An intriguing drama about docs put in the impossible postion of having to choose between three heart transplant candidates when only one organ is available. Cast is excellent, especially Kelsey Grammar and Colman Domingo (who is super underrated in general). Worth seeing for their performances alone.
