127 Hours


I had the chance of watching 127 Hours today. It was superb! If you haven't heard of 127 Hours yet, you will. 127 Hours tell the real life story of Aaron Ralston, a mountaineer that became trap in Utah desert, and survive to tell his extraordinary story.

I will not spoil any revealing details here, so don't worry. Aaron love to do adventure activities, and often do it alone without anyone know where he went. One day, as he was traveling through Utah desert, he fell and his hand was trapped between a boulder and the canyon. His quickly realize that he will probably stay there for a long time, but then realize that he will probably never gonna make it out.

In between his escape and becoming trap, he will start thinking about his family, his friends and past life. He will also fight the weather and environment. You will see what it took to survived, and the human will to keep on living.

It was a great choice that James Franco was nominated for and Oscar, although did not win, it was a superb performance indeed.

This is a highly recommended movie for those movie buff out there. A simple 4/5 stars.
