Awake[/u]


In "Awake," a psychological thriller that tells the story of a man undergoing heart surgery while experiencing a phenomenon called "anesthetic awareness," which leaves him awake but paralyzed throughout the operation. As various obstacles present themselves, his wife must make life-altering decisions while wrestling with her own personal drama.

Man this movie was really disappointing. The dude didn't really sound like he was in pain during the operation, and around the middle I got pretty bored. Though the plot twists were unexpected and semi-decent, I really feel this film didn't develop the idea of anaesthesia awareness, and it was just a way to plug the movie. I mean, I don't think Even in this movie, they could have EASILY implemented it further.

To add insult to injury, the statistics in the tagline are wrong. The chances of anaethesia awareness is more like 1/14000 to 1/42000!

Here's a tip to not be disappointed in the future:

See Jessica Alba in role, lower expectations.

See Hayden Christenson in role, don't see the movie.
