" Awake" ("Awake" or also known as "Under anesthesia") of Joby Harold provokes mixed feelings. On one side is extremely dramatic for your story, your tense scenes and mainly by its subject, yet it lacks a bit of everything. This film brings fresh and young figures Hayden Christensen (Star Wars) and Jessica Alba (Fantastic Four), which combine perfectly as a couple in fiction.
Clayton is a good family and lives with his mother after the tragic death of his father when he was just a child. This will rubbing shoulders with people and prestigious employer becomes an issue.
Secretary Sam is the mother of Clayton and never agreed to keep their relationship secret so as not to provoke your anger.
Clayton has a terrible condition in his heart and so will undergo a transplant which will be his friend and trusted physician.
The film is based on a topic not so pleasant for the viewer and not everyone can watch this movie. This is not the surgery itself or the problems of a boy involved in a family of silver, but the phenomenon of "anesthetic awareness", according to this production takes 1 in every 700 people who undergo it.
What happens when we anesthetize?, In theory we're all asleep, but is this true? Can we feel and hear everything that happens around us?
With the number of films and series on the life and work of doctors, here we present the other side of the coin in an operating room. While asleep Clayton has the feeling that something is wrong disqualifies after anesthesia.
How can it be? The film wants us to believe that many people go through this.
From there, everything becomes murky for Clayton, fleeting images go through your head (similar fact witness when we are about to die) and talks to himself to calm down, and it seems that he does because at times appears to be relatively peaceful.
I want to hold on that aspect of the film: it is unlikely that someone who is being participated in an operation (and less of a heart transplant) and that he is opening the chest in two do not despair and do not soquee with something.
I do not question the Christensen's acting ability but was not expressed or transmitted according to the situation dramatically. This is not the fault of the actor, but its director.
The scenes in the operating room are impressive, but by the mere fact of being a heart operation, but I was left with very little character itself and with a lot of history in general, it seems very original to film.
Despite this drawback, the film is appealing, with good dialogue, drama and satisfactory performances. (Pay close attention to the role of Jessica Alba gives a 180 degrees on the end that keeps us amazed).
After seeing this, rare is it that someone dares to enter an operating room, so there was harsh criticism of the film content being somewhat "traumatic" for the general public and distort reality.
