I haven't seen the movie, nor do I intend to, but does anyone else see this as overreaction (as they both did)?

I saw the movie. I liked it. I don't think I'm any more predisposed toward euthanasia now than I was before I saw it. I don't think there is time in a movie to develop some of the ideas discussed in this thread. Maybe a skillful writer could have, and i am wrong about that.

On a segue, it seems to me that the female boxer in the movie is smarter than Hillary Swank sounds in real life.

Regardless, I've recommended the film and will likely again.

Interesting.

O'Reilly (whom I agree with sometimes, but many times not) said he didn't see that the film had an agenda one way or the other.

Seems some here agree with him.....

"I saw the movie. I liked it. I don't think I'm any more predisposed toward euthanasia now than I was before I saw it."

Just because you aren't any more predisposed toward euthanasia doesn't mean that the 50% or more of the people posting on this board wouldn't be if they saw the movie. Read their posts, you can tell from what they say that they are easily swayed. I think it's irresponsible to advocate seeing this movie to those people. They may run out and kill their mothers right after seeing it.
