Jumper and Awake

I watched two different movies with the same actor named Hayden Christensen and both were science fiction in nature. "Awake" (2007) sounded good because I like sci fi or terror with a medical slant but this one was weird and just dumb in terms of medicine. The premise of the movie is that the main character is to have a heart transplant surgery but remains conscious during the procedure even though he received general anesthesia. I guess we are supposed to turn our brains off about the medical science and just play along that a patient can be conscious and feel his ribs being cut open while under general anesthesia which by very definition means a loss of consciousness. If it were a local anesthetic then you would be awake and not feel pain but he is having heart surgery!! Like I said before, weird.
Then I saw him in "Jumper"(2008) and thought this movie might have a chance since it was based on a novel by Steven Gould but this one was just ok. The idea was interesting but hard to translate in film but if you like a lot of action it is fun and more entertaining than Awake. I hope that we have better to look forward to in terms of science fiction film because all special effects all the time is not necessary to make a great movie. I like special effects when done well and in a creative and appropriate manner in tune with the story.
Here is a clip from Jumper. Enjoy.
