Rating: 2/4 -- A pile of incomprehensible existential gibberish by the vastly untalented actor-writer-director Tim Blake Nelson about the meaning of life in an age of technology, told in the tiresome style of multiple characters who intersect at odd angles ... Full Review

Unfortunately, the script of Anesthesia supports the ballast of an excessive verbosity and the proposed subplots don't acquire a greater dramatic density. [Full review in Spanish] Full Review

Rating: 2/4 -- Stewart stands out because her one big scene seems so passionate and genuine. It's the only moment when "Anesthesia" seems to be working. Full Review
