someone in that trailer is my neighbor of 3 years. don't see eachother that much, but will sign for each others mail when the other is out.. kinda surreal seeing them in a movie :)

that trailer = entire fucking movie

Yep. The cinematography was excellent. The DP get's my vote for sure. Didn't expect it to be as good as it was. One fella had a mild seizure in my showing, had to stop it and get him out. And the main actor killed it, seriously.

I saw up to the point just after he falls.
I went with this chick and she suddenly decided she wanted to get sick and throw up everywhere - ended up leaving...- That sounds better than the movie!stoplying

I actually personally know the guy who it was based on so felt compelled to see it. Also read the book. I expected the film to be slow but was pleasantly surprised. An excellent film based on an amazing story. My girlfriend really enjoyed it too. James Franco was brilliant.

Great movie. Like mando I thought it would be really slow seeing as it's about a guy trapped in a slot canyon. But it really had a great pace with the intercuts of memories and hallucinations. The Part.. and I give The Part a title treatment on purpose.. gave me shit loads of anxiety. Had to catch a quick breather afterwards.

I don't want to see a movie where I already know the ending.

It's a good film. Though I'm not sure it's worth all the attention and praise.

I dont think I can watch a guy cut his own arm off in a movie, knowing that it really happened. F that!

Didn't come to any theatres within 200 miles of where I live. Will have to wait for DVD. Can't wait, though.

about a year ago a director i know was in development for his film (that i was suppose to shoot), JF was attached to play in the film. Then this kind of b-films became co-producer and started insisting that JF is not sellable overseas as he's not recognizable enough. They started restructuring the casting... In mean time the money that was promised if JF would start disappeared... slowly the projects started disintegrating... and now a year later the director doesn't have a movie... And if he didn't listen to the b-films producer he would not only have a film, his film would have an Oscar nominated actor....

- moral of the story: don't listen to quacks who are kings of b-films as they only know (kinda) how money operates but have no clue about art.pr2

that post makes no sense...and i don't really care anyway.the movie was awful and dragged out for far too long. No need for hollywood style movie. would have been much better suited and well thought through story on NPR.
And this is by no means belittling the guy. That shit was far greater than anything I would ever wish to go through, but hollywood made it hollywood.
