John Q is a 2002 movie starring Denzel Washington as John Quincy Archibald, a father and husband whose son is diagnosed with an enlarged heart and then finds out he can not receive a transplant because insurance won't cover it.
John then kidnaps the hospital staff and a few patients in an attempt to get his son on the transplant list and save his life.
A protest against the policies and hidden procedures of many of today's insurance companies, John Q also stars James Woods, Anne Heche, Ray Liotta, and Robert Duvall, among others.
