Editorial Reviews

Awake is a psychological thriller about a common occurrence called "anesthetic awareness," a horrifying phenomenon wherein a patient's failed anesthesia leaves him fully conscious but physically paralyzed during surgery. The patient's charming new wife is forced to struggle with her own demons as a terrifying drama unfolds around the couple. (The Weinstein Company)

Stupid and not realistic

Reviewed in the United States on July 13, 2021

Verified Purchase

So many things wrong with the plot that it is difficult to know where to start. First of all, as an practicing anesthesiologist, there is NO WAY that this could happen without the anesthetist picking up on it. I have done the anesthesia for cardiac surgery and any medical person with even the tiniest bit of knowledge would not treat someone in this contemptible way. No anesthetist would leave the OR with the patient unattended. No one should be in the OR without the proper attire--I could go on but the movie was ridiculous and unbelievable. Stupid plot about the girlfriend and the tension with the mother--absolutely nothing to make it seem real. Sorry, but Jessica Alba's poor acting skills did nothing to help out this weak , unbelievable movie. Don't waste your time

Maybe not be entirely believable but still a good "whodoneit"

Yes, this happens. To the anesthesiologist who says this would never happen and any anesthesiologist would always catch it...maybe GOOD ones catch it, but obviously anesthesiologists are not all that wonderful, some are possibly under the influence or not paying attention. Believe me, I woke up 5 times during a colonoscopy at a major hospital and will never have one again because of the experience of being poked in the butt with a sharp implement! Luckily I was not paralyzed as it was sedation rather than general anesthesia and I complained LOUDLY as it was very painful. An anesthesiologist that inept should just be fired! But back to the movie; I think the parts that were unrealistic were minor points compared to the plot which was exciting and it was well written, as the writer just let small clues out here and there. It really wasn't until the last part that you knew who all was involved in the scheme to murder the main character.

One scene that stood out in my mind as especially chilling was when the surgeon told the main character to imagine him cutting into his flesh and showed him the scalpel and how sharp it was. If any doctor or other healthcare professional had related to me that way I would immediately take that as a threat and RUN and would find somebody else! (I once had a visiting nurse that seemed to have a morbid fascination with sticking patients with needles and as soon as I picked up on that I was not going to have her do any blood draws or IVs and requested another).

Included in this film were some life lessons;

1) Sometimes your mother actually does know best and is not just trying to smother you and run your life.

2) There are many pressures and temptations in the field of medicine that medical professionals need to steer clear of, and if you see a co-worker do something unethical SAY something, even if you have to report it anonymously. The wellbeing of the patient must always be put first, before the healthcare corporation, your colleagues, fame, or money.

3) Greed can be a corrupting influence in any profession and a person must be diligent in vetting those around them before trusting them. Keep close tabs on how your friends and others are treating you and if something doesn't ring true trust your gut. There are still some good people left in the world but sometimes people do have ulterior motives for being in your life and you must be willing to re-evaluate these relationships periodically even if you don't like or want to see the signs they are sending. Blind trust is dangerous, as it can leave you open to exploitation. Trust with verification!

Pure excellence and shows Hollywood can still make great films.

Start to finish, this film is simply amazing.

The foul language is kept to a general minimum, which is important to us. We are tired of film makers and script writers/dialogue writers thinking foul language is necessary in film. For over 50 years it was not present, and some of the best films ever produced have not one foul word in them.

The casting was simply great. Every actor was well chosen, fit the role in which they played, and it was nice to see Chris McDonald show up in a great production. While his role was rather small, he was great. Lena Olin was perfectly cast as well. Even Jessica Alba was well cast and played her role very well, with relish. Terence Howard, as always, was great, too. Hayden Chrsitiansen was probably the weakest of the cast, but even here he did well. Ironically, he didn't really have much of a role in one sense. It was the rest of the cast that really propelled the film to greatness, along with the script/plot being so well conceived.

The director, Joby Herold, I heard this was his first major production as director. Well, he got an amazing project in this film. His work here can only be called superb. And the editing...this is where films are made or broken. The editing was tight, well paced and on the money. Every scene had something to contribute to the story. If you paid attention, every scene was telling you something you need to know. It was done slyly, and very cleverly, something sorely lacking in a lot of film work today.

Well, I didn't give anything away here. Put this film on, get some popcorn now, not during, because you don't want to miss a single minute of this film, it is that engaging!

What an immense pile of dog poo!! I can watch brainless movies time to time, but this one was HORRIBLE! How can this possibly have such rave reviews??? I thought this would be like the movie Malice where I am at the edge waiting and feeling the drama. This was garbage. So EVERYONE is in on killing this bazillionare to make a buck. Meanwhile the bazillionare has this weird, creepy love relationship with his mom (it is too cringy), and his new girlfriend (a nurse), is part of a plan with surgeons to ruin the heart for the transplant. And can I add, where was it mentioned about the guy's heart to begin with?? I could have sworn I had not idea what was wrong with the guy (or maybe the movie sucked so much, missed it). I just kept clicking the 10sec ahead button to get over this and get the ending, which was lame anyway. I only watched because of Hayden because he is forever Anikan Skywalker.

How is this so well reviewed?!

This is a horrifically bad movie, I would still choose it over a Michael Moore flick but it's a close call. The plot, the acting, all if it is just a hard sell without a single redeeming quality. The mom and son communicating it limbo is annoying, there is really no great closure, it could have done fine as a 20 minute short but it felt like a contrived mess. You know a movie is bad when it's got Jessica Alba half naked in it and it's still getting 1 star as I would have given it 2 stars just for that had it not gotten negative stars for the plot, acting, and general absurdity of it all.

“When your numbers up, your numbers up.” [Dr]

“When your numbers up, your numbers up.” [Dr]
In this 2007 conspiracy thriller, Clay Beresford (Hayden Christensen) needs a heart transplant and secretly marries Samantha "Sam" Lockwood (Jessica Alba), his mother's personal assistant. As Sam and his mother, Lilith (Lena Olin), await completion of his surgery, Clay suffers anesthesia awareness exposing his Dr’s plot to murder him and that Sam is part of it, but what will he do with the cat out of the bag?
This takes a slow character building start before getting into it’s stride, but it makes the story harder hitting once it kicks in and if you haven’t read the reviews etc, there’s a good twist in the tail. Decently acted, it really comes together toward the end but much lacks suspense [lose a *].
The single disc loads to 5 trailers before main menu offering play, scene selection, set up [5.1/DTS/2.0 and English subtitles on/off] and special features [audio commentary, making of, deleted scenes, storyboard, blooper reel]. As a 15 rating it has plenty of swearing and some intense surgical scenes. Does for surgery what ‘Jaws’ did for swimming. Well worth a try, but not for the surgically squeamish, but if you’ve read the plot, don’t bother as it’ll lack tension.

I recorded this on Sky + but as usual the box only recorded part of the movie as it needed disk space for "On Demand" to record other rubbish I never have any intention of watching. Anyway, the movie is alright - not an award winner but it was easy to watch, it will have you wondering where it's going at the beginning as the plot line is a bit loose but as it progresses you'll soon realise what is going down, it is a half decent storyline (with a couple of twists and turns) and I really just needed to see the end. Happy with the movie, and price of the DVD which I have now donated to the local charity shop.

A medical scam being conducted on a man that is placed in a situation where an out of body experience (OBE) is actually occurring. Through this OBE, the truth of the story comes to light in a more stunning way. There's nothing here that audiences would not be familiar with, but it's the story that is the reason to keep watching, in order to find out just how the situation resolves itself.
