Disgrace is the movie based on the novel by John Coetzee, a Nobel Prize winner. It contains neither morals (what morality can be deduced from such a name?), nor appeals for tolerance, and something like a Hidden of Michael Haneke. There are gaps between blacks and whites which can be found in each episode. The movie does neither overwhelm by political correctness, nor features the newfound equal rights. The tragedy, as the philosopher said, not in collision of right and wrong sides. The tragedy is that both sides are right. Africa and Europe, black and white, villages and cities, children, and fathers: the conflict is known to be eternal, the only question is: does it stands at the level of mutual recriminations and petty mischief like a broken windshield, or grow into genocide or civil war.

Tom Vaughn's Extraordinary Measures should be considered as noteworthy movie primarily because the fact that it is based on the true story of the family of Dr. Crowley and Stonehill. This drama, about a struggle for the lives of children affected by Pompe disease, where the parents are going through the overflowing emotions, and children calls for sympathy and empathy. But you would not say the same about the film which looks like its filmed clumsy and simple, though Tom Vaughan shoots another comedy with Ashton Kutcher in the lead role, which consists of a set of fragments. If Nicolas Cage was invited, there would be a lump in coming to throat may be in one episode. But here even Fraser is not smiling and still seems to be something to rejoice. Eileen Crowley (Keri Russell) is feeling like it's not her children are sick, even when she worries about them, it all looks like so unnatural. As for Dr. Stonehill (played by Harrison Ford), the acting here is on the high altitude…
