The God Committee

A medical ethics drama about a committee of doctors deciding which patients will get organ transplants.

A fascinating area for a movie plot, an exploration of how these decisions are made. It's made more dramatic by the involvement of a financial impact in this case, but a very thought provoking movie nonetheless.

Kelsey Grammer delivers a very credible performance.

Not an easy topic, and ultimately not a movie masterpiece but engaging and thoughtful and definitely worth a watch.

I liked the movie. You don't know the ordeal that is to wait for an organ, or to be the donor or family of an organ donor.

It was a very simple way to describe and show what happen previously and sometimes afterwards a transplant. I'm an organ recipient and waited in a list for 3 years so I know what it's like. Bye now.

I am kidney transplant recipient (2-2011) When I was called to the hospital, another patient waiting for a kidney too, was called, our romms were next to each other, so we crossed sight at one point. Since there were 2 kidneys, one was for him and the other for me. I was taken to the operation room the next day and had a succesful surgery. The next day after the surgery I found out the other patient was sent home with out having a transplant, because since my donor passed in a car accident, one kidney was too damaged and was not suitible for transplant. I've been always wondering how the commite decided to give the surviving kidney to me.

7/10 - genuinely interesting dive into the ethics and forces at play in the hospital that is only slightly derailed by a secondary plot that is pretty unnecessary for the most part.

I really enjoyed this movie. Kelsey Grammer did a great job. This movie left us with a lot of "what would you do in that scenario?" questions.
