127 hours

I can thoroughly recommend NOT EATING while watching this film!!!!

Just finished watching it while eating my lunch and nearly threw up all over my desk. Takes a lot to make me feel queesy (sp?) but knowing this film was a real story did the job!

Does go to show just how much our 'fragile' bodies can withstand though in desperate circumstances.

If anyone isn't familiar with the story (true story), basic outline is climber on his own, falls dow shaft, arm gets trapped by a rock and he has to amputate it himself after 127 hours of being trapped. Oh, and he only has a cheap penknife that has been extremely blunted from trying to chip away at the rock with it first.

If you have a strong stomach, it's a good film. If you don't, then look away for that part!

Ahem - pussy I am not! lol

I love a gory movie as much as the next freak, but this was just horrible. The thought of snapping your own bones, then hacking through what's left with a rusty, blunt penknife, before finally severing the main nerve is just wrong. Horror films are great when they're not real!
