Should you watch this movie?: Yep. You get a simulated glimpse of what may or may not happen on the so-called black market. You'll realize once again the church is just a Loki illusion. They always have a foot in the pot and they are so great at what they do after over 1000 years of spell casting. Other than that, a good movie that is edutainment.

I was so nice to observe the lovely and talented Laura Harris in so different a role from where I watched her quite superb captivation of a demanding of acting ability in ' Dead Like Me'.

This movie was not a great vehicle for her talent but she did an amazing job of it. Personally, I would like to see her get a role in one of those period/costume dramas that the British do so well.

Not a naughty demanding nudity type role but more like a semi-serious quirky seductive role with humour. I see her doing something not quite Dickensian but similar. Can't put my finger on what I have in mind as yet. Nice job Laura......better things to come I hope and expect !

Couple need to go to jail to. Can't have a change of heart after committing a crime then nothing happens to you. Pretty much an accomplice to murder but you apologize so we're all good.

The actors in this movie do a fine job, however you think the writer (Andrew C. Erin) would have done at least a few minutes research into the reality of Kidney Failure and Transplantation. The truth is that with complete kidney failure the lead character could have a near normal life on Dialysis. She would not have had to make the decision required in this plot. The transplant was also completely farcical. No Kidney recipient would be home and driving about being an investigator a couple of days after this surgery. The recipient of the kidney would be worked up on a drug regime to stop rejection.

It is a pity. This could have been a good movie rather than the rubbish it is.

In Los Angeles, happily married anthropologist Laura Harris (as Ally) receives bad news. Due to kidney disease, she has approximately two months to live. Adoring police detective husband Ivan Sergei (as Ryan Graves) is devastated. The only solution would be a kidney transplant, but it would take two years. Desperate, Mr. Sergei contacts shady Jonathan LaPaglia (as James Dolan) about speeding up the process. Facing the prospect of death, Ms. Harris agrees to a black market transplant...

Before surgery, Harris catches a glimpse of the frightened young woman donating her kidney...

An operating room mishap, involving the criminals responsible for saving her life, leads Harris to question her decision. Meanwhile, husband Sergei is assigned to investigate the case of a dead organ donor. "Final Sale" presents an interesting subject, but there are story problems. Direction by Andrew C. Erin is strongest with the leading couple visiting the hospital, with doctor Reynaldo Rosales (as Hayworth) and orderly Alex Nesic (as Anthony) arousing suspicion and acting sneaky.
