Danny Boyle is the best!
The tag line of this movie "There is no force more powerful than the will to live" says everything about its plot. The story is just about force of will. This movie is based on the true life story of Aron Ralston, who went canyoneering alone in Utah, but he had an accident, and got stuck in a rock fissure with a big rock grabbing his hand. This situation made Aron think about his entire life, and how he had lived it before the accident. He was a very selfish guy, who used to think just about himself, not caring about his family or friends. During the days that he was stuck, he made a reflection about his past and what he wanted to his future, what gave him strength to resist. Talking about the technical aspects of the movie, the main actor, James Franco, fits the role of Aeron. Moreover, the success of the movie has a name, and it is Danny Boyle, who I believe is one of the best movie directors nowadays. He was capable of giving a totally different aspect to the story, creatively merging images from Aron's past and future. I would say that the direction is the most brilliant thing about the movie. Without Danny Boyle, it would be just another drama based on a true story.
