I think everyone knows the story of this movie - Aaron Ralston is hiking in a canyon by himself when he falls and is followed by a gigantic rock which then lands, pinning his arm. He is stuck there for days and finally resorts to cutting his own arm off with a dull switchblade knife. The story is intriguing and amazing, although I wasn't crazy about how this movie was shot. I get why they did it - it was an effort to show the desperation of the situation. I just wasn't crazy about some of the shots. James Franco was amazing though.
