My Comment:
I thought this movie was fiction. And then I realized that this movie was unbelievably fiction. Because the plot was finding a way to make Jack Kevorkian above the law. Like Jack's permission to give euthanasia to his patients. Finally, the law itself could overcome the case by giving him sentence. I am confused of the Jack's euthanasia, because I don't agree how Jack ended the lives of people when the people were not in severe condition even though the disease was unfix-able. Miracles could happen (I think so). But, I agree with what Jack's stated that releasing the life support on sick people make them suffer just like in the medieval years.
About the movie, the plot was great, but I think it was a little boring, maybe because it was just a TV movie
