Segunda Opinião

Overworked computer programmer Ivy Fisher (Joanne Kelly) faints during a company meeting. Dr. Mark Laurie (Shaun Benson) suggests a restful vacation. He's being accused of sexual misconduct and prescribing unnecessary medication. He changes Ivy's diagnosis to terminal brain tumor. After arranging for a second opinion, he comes to her with an expensive experimental treatment.

The original title for this movie is Second Opinion. That says it all. There are lots of red flags in the story for the main character. I can't dismiss this movie outright since some people would overlook those red flags especially if they think the medicine is working. On a more fundamental issue, I wonder if the story should hold back on the doctor's information. It would strengthen any reveal scenes later in the movie. It would build tension by keeping the doctor a mystery longer. That's probably a better way to go with this.
