Review of 14 Hours

14 Hours (2005 TV Movie)
7/10
Not bad but could have been better

Warning: Spoilers
I work at Hermann, and so I think that the whole script for this movie was pretty weak, but I do understand that 2 hours is not enough time to tell the whole story. The attitude of the doctor was pretty on target as well as the way that the nurses all lean on each other. The details were right on for the most part. The names and locations that they refer to, the name badges, the Cafe' Hermann sign in the back ground in the lunch room, all that made it interesting to watch. The flooding of the underground areas was kind of a let down, I know a few of the guys that work on facilities at this and other hospitals, and the viewers missed out on some really good stories of people doing everything they could to save the hospitals.

The hospital that they used for the exterior shots was a far cry from the beauty of this building, and it is a shame that they could not film the exteriors here. They did show a wide shot of the hospital and a close up of the original entrance, so that was really cool to see on national TV. Its too bad that in a couple of years you won't be able to see it at all from the street. They are building the new heart center on the corner where the parking lot for valet is now.
