If there was ever a film to be seen on the big screen, 127 Hours is it. The panoramic views of the canyons are breathtaking. Granted, there are many scenes confined to the claustrophobic section where Aron is trapped, but the scenery is just phenomenal. And yes, there is the amputation scene that is probably the most graphic and bloody scene that I could ever witness, but like a true chicken, I didn't dare look. 127 Hours has a great beginning and really grabbed our attention. My daughter, Liz, went with me. And yes, I believe she was somewhat of a chicken also. The ending scene was emotional. 127 Hours does deserve all the nominations it has received. Will it win for Best Picture or will Franco win Best Actor? I doubt it but it is very much one of the best pictures of the year. Please don't wait to rent this one -go now while it still in the theaters, it is worth the admission price.
And for you adventurous fellows out there, the moral of the story is when you mom calls to touch base, pick up the phone and talk to her.
