A brilliant true story very well told ...

Rating: 9/10 (16 January 2011)

Watching the catchy promo will make you wanna catch the movie itself. As the name suggests , 127 Hours is about Aron Ralston struggling to get out of a situation he is stuck for 127 hours. Aron is an ordinary guy working as an engineer in Intel. One fine day , he decides to get away for a weekend to Utah for mountaineering and canyoneering without letting anyone know about it. He packs up his bag with the needful items and goes for the trip on by-cycle. As a mountaineer , he goes for a hiking to various rock-stoned mountains , valleys and ridges until he loses control and falls into a pitch and boulder gets dislodged and drops on his right forearm. The story continues with Aron spending next five days of his life trying to dislodge his arm from the boulder. The movie shows how he survives by drinking his own blood and urine and finally releases himself by cutting his arm with low cost knife and return back to his place to tell the story to the whole world. ‎127 Hours was mind blowing ...fantabulous.... extremely violent yet very sympathetic movie... A very true gritting direction by Danny Boyle... very fine cinematography... brilliant performance by James Franco. and finally what can be said about the legend A.R.Rehman !!! the lesser we say about this genius ... the better we see !!! His background music is so soulful and full of life ... Must a watch ...
