An amazing story of "Would you have done the same?" Only thing holding back that last star is the bits where nothing was going on, but it still managed to deliver after!

This was a great movie that showcased the beauty of Utah and strength of the human spirit. James Franco gave the film a great performance and humanized the character very well. Life Lesson: Tell people when you're going out of town for a bit...

So I finally had the chance to check out this movie and it was great! Definitely captured the true emotions that could run through us all if we were to be in that situation. It inspires to not give up, to find solutions to anything that may be trapping you even if you relate youself to the movie with a different situation. The best part for me was when he was realizing this moment was ment to happen to help make him a better person and to appreciate more out of life with family and others. Absolutely great!
