Extra Ordinary Measures
A Reflection
An extra ordinary measure is a story about a father who sets out to find a cure for a deadly genetic disease that affecting two of his children. The movie outcome is quite predictable but the message of taking risk and fighting for your love ones provide it with a very positive message that we should not give up on fighting for the one we love even if the whole world seems against it. There is no such thing as the word Impossible, because everything is worth fighting for if its for the people we care about. The father, John Crowley served as a Hero of the modern world. He strived to find a cure for his children and also for everyone who was suffering for Pompe disease, a rare incurable form of muscular dystrophy. The subject matter of extra ordinary measures may be hard for both parents and kids to deal with, the movie tells an unlikely alliance between a father trying to save his kinds and a scientist trying to prove himself and his theories as well as the mutual respect the two come to gain for each other. A certain lessons can be reflected in this movie you can do everything if you try hard enough. The heroic individual defies the odds and make it happen. Everything is Possible, if you believe...
