Profile of The Good Doctor

The mood of The Good Doctor is bleak and suspenseful. The plot centers around doctors and patients, obsession, and power relations. It is a drama and thriller movie. In approach, The Good Doctor is serious and realistic. The pacing is slow. It takes place, at least partly, in a hospital. The Good Doctor is set in the USA. It happens in contemporary times.

Summary of The Good Doctor

Lonesome first-year medical resident Dr. Martin Blake (Orlando Bloom) is eager to impress his superiors, but a few missteps set him back, igniting his hidden insecurities. When he finally gets the respect he so desperately craves from an enchanting teenage patient—Diane (Riley Keough), who is admitted with a kidney infection—he'll do anything to keep her under his care. But when the chief resident finally takes notice of him, Martin can't seem to catch a break: The head nurse has it in for him, and orderly Jimmy (an impressive Michael Peña) discovers Martin's secret budding relationship with Diane and blackmails him for prescription painkillers. Soon a desperate and paranoid Martin is no longer just fighting for respect, but also for his reputation and career.
