Extraordinary Measures

My eyes are a bit red because of watching the film "Extra Ordinary Measure". It would really send you to tears. It may be too embarassing to admit but I will say it anyway, I cry sometimes when watching movie. I know it's rare for a guy to cry over films but I do, just can't stop myself. I have weakness for stories about family especially for a mother to thier children relationship (i don't cry for love stories for crying out loud,just wanna stress that out hehe..). Watching this extra ordinary film really widened my eyes to the fact that anything can happen. May it be considered as miracle but as long as you do everything and your heart is in it, nothing is impossible.

The movie is about a father, John Crowell (played by Brendan Fraser) who hoped for a miracle in saving his two kids from Pompe Cancer. He convinced Dr. Stonehill (played by Harrison Ford), a naive and too tough scientist to put his theories about the cure for Pompe to reality. John funded him a lab where he can work on his theories but realized that they were running out of time 'coz his kids only got less than a year to live if not cured. He eventually teamed up with other scientists who were working on the same cure. Faith and patients of John and his wife (played by Kerri Russel) were tested along the way...Don't wanna spoil the rest of the stories, but it's something worth watching. And what's good about it, is that, the movie is based from an extra ordinary true to life story. Really amazing!
