It was amazing and it dramatizes the history down to the minimum. My husband even loved it with some struggle to watch it in the first place. Close this ReviewWAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No |

This was truly a great movie. And since it was a truelife story, it makes it even better to see how they developed heart operations. WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No |

I was surprised being an RN I'd never heard of Vivien Thomas before. I have no doubt that had Dr. Thomas had the opportunity to go to medical school and become an M.D. he would have been known as one of the greatest heart surgeons of our time! I too am thankful to the producers for making this movie and to learn of Dr. Vivien Thomas' contribution to medicine! Close this ReviewWAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No |

Read MoreThis story was a good one. The acting was fine, the camera work was all right, and the plot was good, maybe even supurb. But the writer/director/editor didn't give the knock-out punch. Sure, everything was good, but there was nothing to take the movie to the next step. Like waiting until the last minute of the movie to give the guy what he always wanted. I think the movie could have been together better so as to really drive home some of the internal feelings we started to have for these characters. Like the death of a main character, it was just like ho-hum, another day at the office to look at pictures, no big deal. In a movie, losing a main character is the climax, not just another day.

Mos Def shows why he turned out to be a better actor than rapper. Although he is a great lyricist, I am glad he chose acting. I agree with everyone here...Movie is great, definitely worth owning. WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No |

Read MoreThank you to the writers and directors for producing this wonderful true life story into a movie!! I highly recommend this movie for the whole family. It is a story of courage, commitment, and selflessness -- things that all of us can be encouraged by in todays world. See the movie, you'll be wiping your tears away, too.
