Movie Review: 127 Hours

James Franco in 127 Hours

The movie has no traces that it was done in Hollywood which makes it good. It was either European or independent. the movie was also done with small budget and minimal actors. Since it's a true story, it was only focused on one character, Aron Ralston, performed brilliantly by James Franco. Aron Ralston is an extreme outdoorsman. He loves adventure but his experience that was highlighted in the story is a trekker's nightmare. I should warn that the movie is really graphic that my sister even moved her sights from the screen. Despite that graphic image, it brought James Franco nominated for the Academy Awards as well as director Danny Boyle another shot at the Oscars after Slumdog Millionaire. 127 Hours is now showing in cinemas from 20^th Century Fox to be distributed by Warner Bros.
