Unlike Wild or Soul Surfer...they had to work really really REALLY hard to make a movie out of this story of survival and triumph over nature while battling your own inner demons and fears. Yeah yeah....we've heard all the complaints. The guy was an idiot, he was irresponsible, foolish and did not have the sense that God gave an animal cracker when he set out on this trek alone in the wilderness. All said and done that is true. But what happened happened. It was moving and undoubted a difficult realization for him to finally make. BUT there wasn't enough there to make a 2 hour movie out of!!! I kept yelling at the screen "C'mon CUT YOUR ARM OFF ALREADY!!!!" Everyone KNOWS what happened!!!! No one cares about your girlfriend or beer or your hallucinations or your pushing against an immovable rock for 90 minutes!! CUT YOUR ARM OFF AND GET OUT OF THERE!!!!!!! WHY ARE YOU WAITING 5 AGONIZING DAYS??????? Terrible movie they milked for every awful scene.SPOILER ALERT: They guy cuts off his arm at the end!
