Just got home from 127 Hours.
Uhm, a hard movie to talk about. Its good, but not as good as some reviewers/critics have made it out to be.
James Franco was excellent though. Solid acting and the overall expression of the different emotions was top notch.
About the amputation part... Its not that bad. It is very well thought out and executed. You only get quick snippets of it and dont really get to see the actual amputation for more than 5 seconds without jumping to another camera angle. I think what does make it hard to watch is the brilliant expression of pain and suffering from James. The part where he had to cut the nerve really does send shivers down your spine.
Anyway, overall its a good movie. Not excellent, but definitely not shit... The moral if you would is also a very nice addition. Certainly makes you think...
