So well depicted ... I had to hide my eyes as it was too painful to watch. Shows to what an extreme one can go to stay alive.
The movie was good..I liked how the movie pretty much jumped right into his predicament.
This movie had me locked in my seat from start to finish. For a film that primarily relied on 1 character and one scene it was very well done. This was a film that flew by unlike a movie like Castaway that just seemed to go on for ever. The flashbacks and hallucinations were all very well done. James Franco was amazing. My only critisism is that it did not do a very good job of relaying to the viewer how long it really took to cut through his arm with that tiny knife. I guess I will have to read the book to figure that one out. Overall an amazing movie, great story which is made even better because it's based on truth.
just love the acting of james franco . i have been a fan of his since the movie he starred in with robert de niro . city by the sea!HES THE REAL DEAL .WHAT AN ACTOR!!!!!!!!!
Pretty darn good!
Great!
Very intense movie!
The beginning seemed extremely rushed and the middle was very long. Not a walk away and feel cheery; more like a "moral-of-the-[true]-story" and be grateful movie.
I loved this movie. The direct or, Danny Boyle did amazing job, and James Franco was perfect. This movie was so intense and kept me on the edge of the seat the whole movie I had to wait in line for at least 2 hours at TIFF to see this film, but it was well worth it.
Excellent Movie! Not only does James Franco give the performance of a lifetime, the score gives the movie so much more emotion and intensity. Although it may get slow at parts, this movie is sure to be one of the best of 2011!
