    Trailer peaked my interest in the theaters. Definitely checking this out. James Franco has Oscar buzz already.

    It's meant to be a little ridiculous so that when you actually watch the movie you're suprised at what actually occurs.

    Danny Boyle film = guaranteed win

    Don't be surprised if James Franco snatches himself an Oscar from this

    looks like a longer and more in depth episode of "i shouldn't be alive". think i'll pass based on the description, can't deal w/ any type of amputation type ? , i can barely watch saw w/o covering my eyes thru half the movie.

    Hmmm the trailer wasn't funny to me. They've been hyping this movie for months. I'm pretty set on amputations though. Seems like alot lately...or maybe it's just the movies I choose to watch.

    I wasnt trying to divert people from seeing this just stating my opinion. The trailer plays out like a dave chapelle skit imo.

    I remember hearing his story on Dateline or something. It’s pretty fascinating, I can’t wait to see the movie.

    The only thing that irritates me about the trailer, is when they show clips of other movies from the director. Not a big deal though, I just hate it for some reason…

    But this ? actually happened. He actually cut that ? off.

    He was losing his arm anyways. Cause it was trapped for long it basically just died from no circulation. So he was losing his arm anyways, but still the pain associated with cutting you're own arm off then breaking the bone off with your own body strength had to be pretty unbearable.

    saw this lastnight at a free screening, pretty damn good....

    if you liekd cast away, you'll ove this,

    franco was much more charismatic than tom hanks was in cast away,

    and if u know what he has to do... it's pretty ? gruesome....


    but overall, the ? was good...

    4/5 imo
