Denzel gives it his all, in an often ridiculous story. I just couldn't stand the writing of this film.

I enjoy watching Denzel Washington on screen because of his sincerity and realism when he performs. Unfortunately, a film cannot let one skilled actor and a solid supporting cast cannot elevate the quality of a film. This could have been better if the script was good. Such a talented cast, if only the direction, storytelling were gratifying. Even the ending was not satisfying. The message was clear, regrettably the manner of relaying it was problematic. Definitely not one of Denzel's best movies.

I remember only slightly liking this movie. It has an excellent theme though.

Great acting, great plot, great dialogue, and very controversial real life issue (especially at the time). Ending was bitter sweet.

I like Denzel, but John Q is one of those movies that you watch and then promptly forget about a half hour later. There's just nothing memorable or outstanding in this film. It's not a bad film, just a little too generic.
