AUDIENCE SCORE

Rating: 1/5 -- If you watch closely, you can spot the exact moment that David Duchovny's career ended.

Rating: 2.5/4 -- David Duchovny is absolutely charming in a movie that combines medicine and crime and ultimately wears out its welcome by being too cute and repetitive with its throwaway humor. Full Review

...For both Duchovny and Hutton, it's a turning point...

Rating: 1.5/4 -- The degree to which Playing God simply doesn't work is, quite frankly, astonishing... Full Review

Rating: 2/5 -- Jarring and unpleasantly woozy.

There's a lot of screaming and carrying on (this is, remember, a movie containing Russian gangsters), but there's a curious absence of weight to the performances. Full Review

Product Description:

Drug-addled former surgeon Eugene Sands, languishing on skid row, attracts the attention of an underworld kingpin after performing impromptu surgery on a gunshot victim with bartender's utensils. Thereafter, Sands unwillingly becomes the kingpin's emergency medic of choice and soon finds himself over his head--and dangerously in love with the big boss' beautiful girlfriend.
