As a showcase for the talent that is Elizabeth Banks, in addition to its existence as a thought-provoking exploration of the field of medicine and the human side of patient care, it’s an undeniable victory.

It’s a nuanced role that Banks absolutely nails, capturing Liz’s experience in a way that makes us feel all that she’s going through.

This imperfect drama nevertheless engrosses in its exploration of the life-and-death complexities of the healing arts, and how what may appear a simple matter of right or wrong from the outside can be much more trickily nuanced for those actually making fateful decisions.

A powerful story about a female surgeon who's student makes a mistake that changes all of their lives. She takes responsibility and covers for him, instead of blaming him as many people would have done. Her life gets more complicated and things start to spiral out of control. I really enjoyed this movie. If you like watching admirable, respectable characters facing difficult situations with dignity and honor, you'll love this movie. 8/10.
