Based on a true story, Extraordinary Measures starring Harrison Ford and Brendan Fraser is about a father's quest to help his children born with a rare genetic defect. Fraser plays the father who quits his job when he finds a scientist (Ford) who has a plausible theory on which to formulate a drug that could save his children's lives.
The movie isn't bad, but it's drippy and predictable. It's sweetened up in all the right spots so it can get maximum leverage from pulling on your heartstrings. I wouldn't recommend it, but if you're dying to see it you can wait to rent it.
