Directed by: Danny Boyle
Don't worry guys, this is not the duration of the film but the time Aaron Ralston (James Franco) trapped inside a boulder with his right hand also trapped by a falling huge stone.
Talking about scaring people doing adventure huh? However, with the Buried feeling induced in this film, Danny Boyle manages to inspire people. So we get to see Aaron got trapped, him trying to survive and saying nice things to himself to keep the spirits up.
Aaron also see hallucinations of his life, which is great since it is not in the Requiem for a Dream kind of visualization. What makes this film more interesting that it is from a true story and we all know how true story can really inspire people, just like Daniel Day Lewis inspiring us through There Will Be Blood. Don't argue to me about this one, Daniel Day Lewis's character in that bleak movie is very inspiring, just like Woody from that Toy Story thing.
After seeing this you will be left inspired and be thankful for what life has given you so far, something that is rare in movies nowadays.
So the whole film gravitate towards James Franco's performance and he didn't disappoint. I already like this guy from Spider-Man movies (Sam Raimi's version) and don't you even dare to berate Spider-Man movies, even that weird third installment because I really like Spider-Man a lot.
Look at this, a man trying to balance his superhero life with daily minutiae. that's like everyone of us right? Although most of us cannot swing from skyscrapers but the 'with great power comes great responsibility' shit is something of a kind. Which Kick-Ass answered; With no power comes no responsibility.
However James Franco didn't act as Peter Parker but his best buddy/nemesis and he didn't disappoint. He is the one that makes Spider-Man more interesting in terms of story development and I think in the future James Franco is heading Leonardo DiCaprio way, not Robert Pattinson's lane.
I know, perhaps you might wonder, why partial review of Spider-Man movies got inside this 127 Hours review. Because I can and I wanted it that way.
