Extraordinary Measures
A desperate father/business man (Brendan Fraser) and theoretical scientist/researcher (Harrison Ford) team up and butt heads as they race against time to find a miracle cure for a rare genetic disorder. This movie is inspired by the real life story of the John Crowley family. It is a powerfully emotional film that illustrates the frustrations and ordeals that are encountered while trying to bring a new drug to clinical trials. Fraser and Ford are excellent in their roles, as is the little girl who plays Megan with such punk. This movie is about family and hope.
Alien gives it 3 ½ "chasing the wind" stars out of 4.
