My thoughts:
While it is not an instant classic, 127 Hours did not disappoint. Since the movie was based on a true story, I was aware of the general plot, the climax, and the general conclusion prior to watching the movie. However, this did not detract me from enjoying the movie. The acting was good, but the way the story was presented is what made it a worthwhile movie. I would definitely recommend 127 Hours.
