Danny Boyle hat den Zuschauer im Kinosessel schon in ein großes Spektrum unterschiedlichster Universen katapultiert. Sei es der Mikrokosmos des englischen Drogenmillieus [TRAINSPOTTING], der Makrokosmos der britischen Gesellschaft nach einer Invasion von Untoten [28 DAYS LATER] oder sogar in den weiten Kosmos selbst [SUNSHINE]. Es ist schön zu sehen, dass sich Boyle bei jedem his films to a whole new experiment and faces up to his Oscar-winning SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE is not resting on laurels vile.
Rookie
127 Hours, his latest film, a surprisingly relaxed and warm-hearted retelling of the fate of Aron Ralston, an adventure in 2003, fewer than 127 hours [!] Caught in a crevice was . Refreshing here is that the film in this scenario, the focus is not on the usual nihilistic loss of hope is, but it tells how much can hang a man in his life. In this sense, is 127 HOUR an ode to hope and a history of a thrilling battle for survival.
The will to survive
Boyle gets the interest of viewers in that he fills the character of Ralston in flashbacks and dream sequences to life. Under the consideration that [almost] the entire movie with his true background locally very restricted, there are no significant narrative lengths. James Franco proves to be a successful choice for the sympathetic figure of the adrenaline junkies Ralston. Although annoying at times of "hip" for the documentary style popular use of split screens, but this is pretty much the only formal blemish, the one in Boyle's energetic project may determine. 127 Hours has long residual effect on the audience, because what is seen as dramatic in its details may have been so motivating are the last pictures that we dismiss the film in the wide world.
