Every so often ,something exceeding stupid happens to someone , you see it all the time on YouTube or America's funniest Home Videos . Someone trips and falls down the stairs , gets hit in the private areas , and so on . The thing is , you never ever really think , that person is going to be you .
Welcome "Aron Ralston" , mountain climber / idiot / hero , he get trapped , and must come to terms with the actions he must take to survive . Cutting off part of his arm .
The funny thing about the story is, it is so stupid . I can only wonder is there some guy out there DEAD under a rock , cause he did not have a knife or the courage to cut of a limb .
Danny Boyle is a A-Class director and it shows in the film . James Franco again a great actor has done great acting .
But the story sucks , a book yes , morning talk shows yes , but movie , this is a define NO . For some reason the story failed to connect with me , and the high ratings on other movie review site make we wonder , what am I missing ?
He is really not a likable person , and the rock does a very poor acting job .
Nominated for six Academy Awards , Best Actor , Best Picture , Best Adapted Screenplay , Best Film Editing , Best Original Score and Best Original Song .

Well actually, the movie was not that all bad... it did become slow from the time he got stuck till the time he freed himself. What I think the awards go for are more the uplifting sense of the will to live and the motivation that this movie gives people.
