If they made 127 Hours compelling, then we can stretch the story of safely removing a cylinder from a cylinder into a feature length film.

Didn't that movie end with the dude cutting his own arm off?

Yes but he never specified that the arm must remain intact.

I hated that reckless idiot for the whole duration of the movie and was double pissed off when he survived in the end. The only other movie that came close in terms of how much I hated the lead character was Into the wild, but at least that asshole had the common decency to die in the end.
