John Q.

“John Q.” is a dramatic film about a man called John Q. Archibald whose son faints at a baseball game. When John and his wife carry him immediately to the hospital, the doctors tell them that his son has a problem in his heart, which is three times bigger than normal ones, and they have to operate on him.
John speaks with his insurance company because the operation costs 250,000 $ and they don’t have enough money (75,000 $ have to be paid before the operation just to put the boy’s name in the waiting list for transplants). The man who speaks with him says that they can only give them 20,000 $ because of his short-time work.
His wife begs him to do anything that can save their son, so John decides to kidnap some people who are into the hospital until the hospital director puts his son’s name in the list.
