Coma Reviews
Creative Loafing
The boys'-club politics at the hospital provide the picture with interesting subtext right in line with the sexual dynamics of the period; Bujold proves to be a worthy champion for the feminist cause.

A suspense-filled nailbiter that plays on a fear no weapon weidling psycho can top.

This is a tidy conspiracy-theory thriller from Crichton, who accentuates the tension by packing it into a wholly believable, human framework.
Coma is an extremely entertaining suspense drama in the Hitchcock tradition.
