Apparently it's debated how frequent anesthetic awareness acutally is, although not surprisingly, the movie exaggerates both the frequency & the experience...
Quoted: What makes Awake a bit more annoying than most medical jaunts is that, unlike its peers, it claims a noble and self-righteous pedigree: As the first exposé of a previously covered-up, denied, and miserable condition called "anesthetic awareness."

Wow, smoking will automatically make it impossible for a movie to get a G-rating. This is a tough subject, though. For example, in "Good Night and Good Luck," the smoking is central to accurately portraying Edward R. Murrow, which got the movie a PG rating.
Quoted: Smoking would be considered alongside sex and violence in assessing the suitability of movies for young viewers.

If this country does not accelerate the conversion from paper to electronic health records, many health care reform promises will become irrelevant.
