Have you seen this movie Awake? If you haven't, I would suggest you try to squeeze some time in and see it. I haven't seen a good movie like this in such a long time. After all... months of being disappointed with B movies this is finally a good one. Jessica Alba, Hayden Christensen & Terrence Howard were the perfect picks to star in this movie. If you love movies with a twist at the ending, you'll love this one that's forsure. Let me tell you a little bit about it if you haven't seen it yet but don't worry I will not ruin it for you. Hayden's character has a bad heart and needs a transplant, and the love of his life Jessica Alba learn all about never regreting anything so in other words.. no regrets. His recent best friend doctor played by Terrence Howard ends up doing his Christensen's heart transplant after battling the decision out with his over protective mother whom tries to persway her son to have the surgery done by a collegue and close friend, but is disappointed when he chooses his best doctor friend to go ahead and do it instead. When going under anastedic, the surgery team thinks he's under but what they don't realize is that he's awake and can hear and feel everything that is happening and you can hear him begging them to stop cutting him open. It's tourchure! Suddenly you find out what and who the real plot is against. I'll stop here before I go on and ruin it for you.

Good movie. I was pleasantly surprised (as were my friends who I went with) by it, especially because of the poor reviews it got, and the less then stellar acting that Hayden Christensen had done in the past (I'm happy he's getting better at it though). Some good plot twists I didn't see coming either.

Hi Cinder, I know exactly what you mean! The movie had quite the twist and it was very interesting that's forsure. I wished they made some other good movies like that. This movie sure kept me interested always wondering what would happen next. I think my favorite part of the movie was when he was talking to his mom almost at the ending and everything revealed.
