Total agreement.  The first part of the movie was reasonably
entertaining, but the last part was pure emotional manipulation.
The reviews so far have been overly generous.  Not a bad movie,
but those hospital scenes were without socially redeeming value.
How can people get misty-eyed over such over-dramatic over-acting?
