So I watched this movie yesterday and though I went into it not too sure if I'd like it or not...by the time I was done I was pretty damn impressed.... netflix write up as usual LOL While undergoing a heart transplant, Clay (Hayden Christensen) experiences "anesthetic awareness," a condition that allows him to see and feel everything that's happening to him but leaves him paralyzed and unable to do anything about it. From his unique and painful vantage point, Clay learns troubling truths about his young wife (Jessica Alba) as she struggles with her own demons. Terrence Howard and Lena Olin co-star. Has anyone seen this flick yet? if so what did you think of it.... I personally recommend this movie to those who enjoy psychological thrillers/dramas etc....it was definately a good movie... On todays movie list..."Felon"..and I'll write a preview once I'm done watching it..it looks really good too

That does sound pretty good. I recently underwent a OTC minor surgical procedure where I was awake a good part of the time. I can realate to being awake during surgery. it was not a fun thing. I think anyone that would undergo that would be having terrible trauma.
