#Captain Philip#★★★★★, based on the true incident of the hijacking of a Maersk freighter in the waters of Somalia in 2009, Captain Philip, played by Tom Hanks, led the crew to be kidnapped after a confrontation with pirates. A thrilling rescue unfolded. This is an old work directed by Greengrass, and it is still a documentary film that he is good at, from "Bloody Sunday" with the anti-British pro-democracy march in Northern Ireland as the background to "Flight 93" of 9/11, to the Norwegian History just released this year. In "July 22", which is based on the most serious terrorist attack, Greengrass used the hand-held camera more and more exquisitely to restore the incident itself to the greatest extent, and set off a more tense and realistic atmosphere. At the end of the film, ABC aimed at sniper at three points. The passages are really gripping and brought into the plot completely. To be honest, "Captain Philip" is the most complete of these documentary series. This American theme film makes people hardly see the taste of commercial films. The audience feels more of Greenglass's style and documentary charm. At the same time It may also be because this is the only film in the series starring a famous Hollywood star, which gives the film a more prominent protagonist and focus, and makes the film structure more reasonable and complete. Tom Hanks did give the best actor-level performance. If it is said that the passage of fighting against pirates in a calm and witty manner is the basic skill of the old drama, the embarrassment and shock before and after the rescue at the end is a shocking acting explosion. This is the 2013 film. Tom Hanks played Captain Philip and was called "Captain". Three years later, he played Captain Sully and was called "Captain" again. The latter is also based on a true event. The movie is directed by another awesome director, Mr. Eastwood, Mr. Eastwood. Think Zemeckis and Forrest Gump, and Spielberg and Saving Private Ryan. ", it seems that Tom Hanks + famous director is the best combination candidate for the main theme movie in Great America. ——Nine Rings Film Review

    The elites who show the state apparatus work together to save a nation. This is the right direction of the patriotic movie. There is no lack of truth in shooting an old story with a known result that is so exciting. The acting skills of all the actors are almost perfect, maintaining the level of "Flight 93".

    It's unremarkable, and it's not as good as the repeat of National Geographic. I am afraid that the budget will be sucked up by the rent of the big props.

Captain Phillips quotes

  • 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.

  • Captain Richard Phillips: There's gotta be something other than being a fisherman and kidnapping people.

    Muse: Maybe in America, Irish. Maybe in America.
