I naively hope that our society has progressed to a point of liberty that healthy debates can be had on this subject, instead of the politicization of mask wearing or the human rights of human beings with whom you don't share the same physical appearance (be it skin tone or attractiveness).

With regards to this movie, in my opinion Jack was rightfully convicted and this is how the law system should operate. This is also the shortcomings of a law system which is necessary to maintain social peace. The law system is not designed for the challengers.

    Except for this person, there seems to be no highlight in this film, especially after watching a biopic after watching a social network.

    There are always some things we can't do, such as Jack who was born at the wrong time and ended up in prison, such as Pacino is really old.. And actively euthanize or live well, you can choose.

You Don't Know Jack quotes

  • Dick Thompson: [Jack Kevorkian takes the stand, Thompson is the prosecutor] Can we all presume just for the hell of it that we are really in a courtroom, okay? That there is a judge and a jury and real witnesses?

    Jack Kevorkian: No, I will not presume. I refuse to presume.

    Dick Thompson: Can we presume that this is a real trial here?

    Jack Kevorkian: No, we can't. Because there's no law here. Am I wrong?

    Dick Thompson: You're wrong!

    Jack Kevorkian: Prove it. Cite to me one common law case of assisted suicide. One.

    Dick Thompson: I will ask the questions...

    Jack Kevorkian: Go ahead. I'm listening. We're all waiting.

  • Geoffery Fieger: The court of appeals' ruling just came in and they ruled in our favor. They said that the law was so poorly worded that it could not be upheld.

    Jack Kevorkian: Oh. Well, I'm glad to hear there's still some smart people in power left.

    Geoffery Fieger: That was the good news. They also ruled that there's no constitutional right to commit suicide...

    Jack Kevorkian: I take back what I just said.

    Geoffery Fieger: ...and that aiding in one falls under an old common-law definition of murder.

    Jack Kevorkian: Common law? What the hell is that?
