Crazy Credits

Captions appear just before the end credits: "Aron's premonition came true. He met his wife Jessica three years later. Their son, Leo, was born in February 2010. Aron continues to be a climber and canyoneer. He always leaves a note to say where he has gone." During these captions, the cinematographer shows us the real Aron and Jessica, who are sitting silently on a couch outdoors, on green grass near a stand of green trees. The couch has colors suggesting the hues of the canyon Aron was trapped in. Aron slowly smiles, and then breaks into a grin. See more »

This movie is in my top 50 and it deserves it. Being a scout I've always been interested in survival and stuff like that so this film ticked all the boxes for me. When I first watched this film I felt as though I was watching the real Aron Ralston trapped under that rock, it was very realistic. Its so accurate that even Aron himself said so. Furthermore James Franco's performance in this film is outstanding it was as if in it he was cutting his own actual arm off.

I would recommend this to anyone who has seen and enjoyed films like alive and other survival films. Also don't watch the end bit unless you have a strong stomach.
