Speaking of Paul Greengrass (Paul Greengrass), he must start with the "Bourne Bourne series" he directed. The first part of "Bourne Bourne" in the new century came from director Doug Liman. , Doug Liman's tough style and rhythmic soundtrack to The Bourne, lay a solid foundation for the mansion of The Bourne, but then it was Paul Greenglass, Paul Greenglass in "The Bourne 3" played hand-held photography to perfection, with the light and sound and soundtrack, "The Bourne 3" won the highest score of all Paul Greenglass films.

The biggest feature of hand-held photography is high speed and shaking, creating a tense psychological experience, and the proper matching of sounds (including human voices and soundtracks) can make the audience feel the emotions brought by the scene. "Captain Phillips" does not have fierce fighting, there are The confrontation between many characters, and the repeated threats of pirates raising guns in the plot create continuous tension. It is rare that the audience can always be brought into the scene without fierce fighting and armed conflict.

" Captain Philip " uses the character of Captain Rich to amplify the theme of the film. While explaining the catastrophic situation in Somalia, the film also expresses the humanitarianism of the United States and the national will of the United States' "unbroken". One side is the comprehensive national strength. The United States belongs to the first world, and the other is Somalia, which is in the midst of a national disaster. One is the rescue and standardized medical examinations that were shocked by the offensive. The psychological revelation the story brings to us is as simple as the Burke-class destroyer dragging a lifeboat to the west and east in the vast sea. This film perfectly depicts this theme, and I give it 5 stars. But let the director resist It is also a matter of "high-speed shaking" for the director of "The Bourne", which is powerful and reveals the darkness of the system, to direct this extremely "great" movie.

    The main theme, the self-confidence and pride of the American people is once again strengthened. In addition, my daughter-in-law has a kind of crying disease when watching any movies.

    The small rhythm is good, and it also maintains the style of Paul Greengrass's mirror movement. The emotional explosion of Tom Hanks after the catastrophe is really shocking, but the hysterical behavior before the escape is somewhat inexplicable. In fact, pirates have a good sense of humor!

Captain Phillips quotes

  • UKMTO Officer: Maersk Alabama, you should alert your crew, get your fire hoses ready, and follow lockdown procedures.

    Captain Richard Phillips: Yeah. Is that it?

    UKMTO Officer: I'm relaying your transmission now, but chances are it's just fishermen.

    Captain Richard Phillips: They're not here to fish.

  • Captain Richard Phillips: Listen up. We have been boarded by four armed pirates. You know the drill. We stay hidden no matter what. I don't want any hostages. We stay locked down until help arrives. No one comes out until you hear the non-duress password from me which is "suppertime."

    Maersk Alabama Crewman: Jesus.

    Captain Richard Phillips: If the pirates find you, remember, you know this ship. They don't. Make them feel like they're in charge but keep them away from the important things like the generator and the engine controls. Stick together... and we'll be all right. Good luck.
