I work in a hospital and work with many ICU nurses. I’m deeply offended that this article implies That Eddie Redmain is more attractive than them, much less then average man walking around any given public place. I call bullshit on this review in general as this person lost credibility in the first few sentences.

I literally just finished this movie less than 5 mins ago. It was pretty good, a little slow but Jessica Chastain was amazing as always.

Weird inaccuracy in the final point of this article. The final section discussing the motive says:

"The film opens with a young Cullen being pushed to the side as a medical team urgently administers defibrillation to a family member."

That's just wrong. Its just a random patient, and the "young Cullen" is a nurse. He's the first to respond when the alarm sounds. You can even see him remove his stethoscope and he's wearing scrubs. He's clearly a nurse working in the scene, not a younger version of himself witnessing the death of a family member.

That slow burn was pretty effective, imho. I saw The Good Nurse at an early screening two weeks ago, and quite a few people jumped at that one scene in the diner.

On a side note, got to chat with Jessica Chastain afterwards. She is an absolute delight, both as an actress and as a person.

Fact: Eddie Redmayne's entire body is covered in lip skin.

“Jessica Chastain as the world’s most improbably good-looking (even with unflattering normie haircuts) ICU nurses.”

At my hospital, the ICU nurses are definitely the best looking at my hospital. I respect them all as professionals, but it’s hard to not notice…

Did he really shout “I can’t 1001 times?” That was painful to watch.

The only disservice the movie does is actually telling the extent of what he did and limit really showing how long he got away with murdering patients and how messed up he and his life was. The book was so good and so detailed and I wish the movie was a miniseries instead to go into details.

Cullen started nursing in 1986 but wasn't caught until 2003. He is thought to potentially have started killing as early as his first job. He may have a kill count of over 400 patients. He was shuffled between like 9 different hospitals. Many of which knew he may have or actually harmed or killed a patient but just let him leave instead of doing anything about it.

The movie really only focuses on his last hospital, because Amy played such a vital role in him finally getting caught. But that last hospital dragged their feet, waited months to report the patient death they were legally required to report, and hindered the investigation at all steps to protect themselves. And he killed many patients in that time frame.

Cullen himself was very troubled, had alcohol issues, psych issues, attempted suicide multiple times by swallowing a bottle of pills but then calling 911 or going to the ER himself. Was an animal abuser, stalked a girlfriend, arrested multiple times.
