Harrison Ford is enjoyable in just about everything, but somehow he plays an unlikeable character in this film.

| Original Score: 2/10 | Nov 29, 2020

A disappointingly ordinary film.

| Original Score: 1.5/4.0 | Sep 7, 2020

EXTRAORDINARY MEASURES is an extraordinary story about some extraordinary people. An intelligent film that shoots an IV of humanity straight into your heart.

| Nov 6, 2019

Harrison likes to talk about how he's a team player and how everything he does is in the service of the story. His talk-show mantra is that, even though he's a star, he doesn't act like one. Maybe that was once the case. But not here.

| Jul 26, 2019

Geography aside, Extraordinary Measures includes some memorable moments but doesn't live up to the stirring real-life story that inspired it.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Aug 15, 2018

| Original Score: B+ | Feb 18, 2012

| Original Score: B- | Jan 20, 2012

Extraordinary Measures is a celery of a film; humorless, flavorless, mediocre through and through.

| Original Score: 5/10 | Mar 21, 2011

Extraordinary Measures strives to tug at our heartstrings, and educate us on a little publicized disease, but it ends up feeling like a drug itself - manufactured using artificial chemicals by technicians in a cold lab.

| Original Score: 3/10 | Oct 16, 2010

Easy to root for a loving father fighting through the system, but Extraordinary Measures shamelessly piles on the sentimentality and disregards the real work of the many scientists dedicated to fighting this disease for years.

| Original Score: 5/10 | May 22, 2010

A garden variety disease-of-the-week 온라인카지노추천 movie dressed up with cinema marquee names.

| Original Score: 2/4 | May 17, 2010

If the two leading characters were women, this would have gone straight to the Lifetime network.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Apr 2, 2010

This story has merit, so it's a shame it isn't a stronger adaptation of the true events that inspired it.

| Original Score: C- | Mar 31, 2010

If this this sounds like movie-of-the-week fodder, it is, but Extraordinary Measures hits all the right dramatic notes without tipping into sentimentality.

| Mar 25, 2010

A touching story inspired by true events. A timely subject. Two high-profile actors in Brendan Fraser and Harrison Ford. Sadly, it all adds up to an extraordinary bore.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Mar 5, 2010

Harrison Ford still retains enough of his old movie star magic to ramp up the electricity a bit when he's onscreen, but this only makes you want to see him do something that makes better use of his gifts. Brendan Fraser just seems to grow bigger over the

Soapy and unemotional, this makes a hash of an interesting true story.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 26, 2010

Moderately illuminating in parts, but the clich (C)s of cinematic suffering tend to overwhelm it.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 26, 2010

Those expecting the exuberance of an Erin Brockovich from the same producers will be disappointed. Extraordinary Measures is sensitive and dull.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 26, 2010

Harrison Ford is the clich (C) of a scientist who cares more for equations than humans, and works to atrocious rock music. The child actors are cloying in their cuteness. A serious subject drowned by sentimentality.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 26, 2010
