This was a powerful movie. I have every intention of buying this a couple of months from now and any time I think things are really bad and overwhelming, I'm going to pop this movie on and know that things could always get worse and you can never give up. It's like really that motivating. The story that it was based on is remarkable. The direction by Danny Boyle is awesome between the different camera angles on James Franco and the memories he's going through while being pinned there . Please be warned that towards the end of this movie, it gets BEYOND gruesome to watch. It's like a scene out of the Saw franchise in the middle of this movie. I could barely watch considering that it was "real".
I would absolutely recommend that everyone check this bad boy out. I have no doubt that this will be up for a bunch of awards at the end of this year. It is a very inspirational watch.
