Jessica Alba stars in it, and it's about a guy who undergoes surgery while being practically "awake" i.e the anesthetic didn't take its full effect on his body. as a result, he feels excruciating pain and discovers several other things that i'll leave undisclosed for now...watch the movie, it's totally worth it.

Well i saw it a few months ago ..... i thought it was OK.....
but i would've preferred if they kept it a bit realistic, in other words i think i would have liked the movie more without the element of fiction.....
Anesthesia awareness is a relatively rare condition that has been reported in the medical literature and it actually still happens....cases are reported every year in the united states.....it can be avoided simply by good clinical pratice and careful monitoring.... which means that the theme of the movie is a real condition that's why i think they should've kept it "REAL"...i think it would've had a better effect on the viewers.....i will not go into the details of the fictive part as i will be spoiling the movie......but all in all i recommend it, u'll probably enjoy it specially if ur a fan of Jessica Alba who looks gorgeous as usual ...........
