I felt like cutting my own arm off during this film it was that BORING. The film just did not make any sense! The most confusing aspect of this film was ALL ( And I mean ALL!) of the flashback sequences, They didn't add any background to the story. Flashback sequences will usually make you less confused but with the ones in 127 hours they made me MORE confused. When the first sequence started I thought he'd managed to escape but instead James Franco was probably just dreaming about when his favourite team the Utah Jazz won a game in the NBA. I mean, what does the NBA have to do with Canyoneering! To sum up this review in one sentence: ABSOLUTELY RUBBISH!
