127 Hours Ratings & Reviews

February 3, 2025
This one is a classic very entertaining and plenty of action to keep you sitting on the edge of the seat, based on a true story I would hate to be in his shoes. Making you feel the pain and despair hoping someone would find you trapped in the rocks willing to take a chance to help you, Rock climbing and swimming with a couple of girls in a hidden lagoon having lots of fun, marvelous entertainment full on suspense and thrills flying everywhere. Actors made this movie fabulous with the story that made you feeling involved, wanting to help but not been able, I rated this one an A grade plus for holding my interest all the way through the show full on suspense, so why are you reading this, why not out there getting it so you can judge for yourself, top of the art movie couldn't be better not over done and hit the right note.

Candice Frederick
Franco... delivers a solid performance as the strapping climber who shows his vulnerability when he reflects back on his life--the mistakes he's made and the moments he may miss.
Arizona Republic
Bill Goodykoontz
It's an incredible performance by Franco, walking the line between what once was enthusiasm but now is manic desperation.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Calvin Wilson
Boyle is such a gifted filmmaker that, in his hands, 127 Hours is genuinely -- and unsentimentally -- inspirational.
Detroit News
Tom Long
Directed and co-written by Danny Boyle in a style that travels from ecstatic to nerve-wracking and back, this is a film about perseverance, strength and the importance of always letting people know where you're going.
Austin Chronicle
Marc Savlov
Fair warning, oh squeamish ones: 127 Hours does not shy away from (nor does it stint on) Ralston's ultimate method of obtaining egress from his predicament. Which is exactly as it should be.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
[It] will blow you away -- for its audacity; for James Franco's performance; for the way that, by the end, it leaves you feeling connected to the strangers sitting next to you, and happier to be part of humankind.
Denver Post
Lisa Kennedy
In his impressive follow-up to Slumdog Millionaire, the Academy Award-winning director honors the lure of solitude while at the same time celebrating the beautiful necessity of other people.
Christian Science Monitor
Peter Rainer
Franco is a remarkably engaging actor - a prerequisite here - but Boyle, understandably, tricks up his predicament with a slew of Ralston's imaginings and fantasies and swaddles everything in a throbbing synthopop score.
Chicago Reader
Noel Murray
Aside from an exhilarating opening and a gruesome climax, the movie isn't all that rich emotionally; all the visual razzle-dazzle winds up serving a pat lesson about people needing other people.
Washington Post
Ann Hornaday
It's a movie worth seeing, even when it's barely watchable.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
"127 Hours," about an unimaginably unbearable experience, is pretty much an unbearable experience of its own.
Dallas Morning News
Chris Vognar
The latest from Danny Boyle is actually an ode to survival, a bracing story of man and nature and an exhilarating sensory experience. It's my favorite movie so far this year.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
How do you make a movie about immobility? For a hyperactive stylist like Boyle, whose movies are at best thrillingly kinetic and at worst represent death by a thousand cuts, the solution turns out to be absurdly simple. He heads inward.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
From such harrowing beginnings, it's rather awesome what an entertaining film Danny Boyle has made with "127 Hours."
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
I felt myself deteriorating at much the same rate Ralston was, making his ability to overcome his travails all the more exhilarating.
New York Daily News
Joe Neumaier
As Franco goes from fearful to resigned to resentful of the spot he's in, we're absolutely hooked.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
Like all great movies, "127 Hours" takes us on a memorable journey. Which is not easy when 90 percent of the movie takes place with a virtually immobile hero in a very cramped setting.
Slate
Dana Stevens
Boyle's skill at wringing physical and emotional reactions from his audience is impressive; watching 127 Hours is, as intended, an experience of grueling intensity.
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
Danny Boyle pumps every frame of 127 Hours with cinematic adrenaline that declares war on the dull gravity of docudrama. And James Franco does the best, most natural and nuanced acting of his career to date, lacing terror with bracing humor.
