Leave your thoughts about Code Black.
| Anchorage PressIndra ArriagaAs a film, Code Black has some flaws. Among these is the second-rate sound design (and) the amateur directing. Without expert direction, sequences outside of the hospital setting come across as forced and artificial. |
| CinemacyMorgan RojasCode Black serves as a reality check of life in a County Hospital, dealing with hot-button issues that may never fully get resolved, but it's the planting of the seed that we, the audience, can make a difference. |
| New York TimesJeannette CatsoulisSlicing through the fat of policy debates to the visceral rush of critical care, the narrative combines existential worries... and blood-and-guts immediacy with a seamlessness that made me want to high-five the editor, Joshua Altman. |
| Epoch TimesMark JacksonReal-life ER doctors crafted this superb documentary as a cry for help. Our U.S. healthcare system is about to break down. 'Code Black' stands for an overflowing waiting room. |
| Washington PostMichael O'SullivanCode Black is a powerful and quietly damning film. While training his lens narrowly on the heroic workers in a single emergency department, McGarry has made a broad indictment of a system that is badly in need of surgery. |
| Seattle TimesMoira MacDonald"Code Black" presents itself as a demonstration of the current crisis in health care, and it's hard to watch without becoming enraged. |
| Philadelphia InquirerSteven ReaCode Black is sobering stuff. The American health system, McGarry's film argues, is broken. But the film is undeniably inspiring, too: Despite everything that is wrong, there are nurses and doctors and technicians determined to do things right. |
| USA TodayClaudia PuigThe precarious state of contemporary health care is shockingly evident. McGarry follows a team of idealistic, committed and unflappable medical residents. |
| Village VoiceErnest HardyWhat will pull viewers in is the empathy of the healthcare workers who battle to retain their idealism in the face of staggering obstacles. |
| The PlaylistKatie WalshCode Black manages to encapsulate so much of what is wrong with our health care system, but also to point out what’s right, and to posit an attitude shift not just about health care but about how we as a society treat those around us who are in pain or suffering. A heartbreaking but hopeful message within this important film. |
