Did the movie Awake make you scared to have surgery?

I'm an anesthesiologist, and I'm surprised I haven't heard more questions and concerns about this. I haven't seen the movie, but if you did - does it make it seem like this is a common thing, or do you think it's blatantly over-the-top?

I already am afraid, Anesthesia awareness is common with 20,000 to 40,000 cases of anesthesia awareness each year reported, so yeah I would ask questions.

I was scared of surgery before I saw that.
