127 hours

What do I have I to say about 127 hours? Well unless you've been hiding under a... hmmm, scratch that - I think you all know what this story is about. Guy goes for a hike alone in the middle of nowhere, tells no one where he's going and then proceeds to get his arm stuck under a rock and is stuck there for an insanely long time. You've seen a similar story before, you've seen a special on TV or the movie in one way or another along these lines - "I shouldn't be alive!" I hear ya - but this movie was INSANE. I didn't feel any Hollywood hype here. They told this story so well and didn't just leave you with some guy in a hole whining for the whole movie (which I was afraid was going to happen). I'll tell you what tho - I just don't know what kind thumbs up or thumbs down to give here. I honestly cant remember the last time a movie made me so insanely fidgety. I'm pretty sure I screamed at least once. I think I cried at least twice. Additionally I probably muttered Holy Shit about 900 times. With that said I guess it really was a really good movie...however you really need to watch this at your own risk. (don't be a sissy, watch eet)
