This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

Captain Phillips based on a true story is a very edge of your seat thriller. The directing and performances are brilliant, the scenery is different, and the catchy film score suits the movie.Apparently the real Captain Phillips was difficult to get along with, and apparently his crew couldn't stand him due to him apparently putting them in danger and ignoring warnings about the pirates. It's scary that the hijack was real, but the Hollywood depiction is just like every Hollywood movie based on real events - there will always be a lot of falseness added in a depiction to make it look more interesting.If you still haven't seen this film, i must warn you that there is a lot of shouting and screaming.Captain Phillips shows viewers the length that people will go to based on greed.

It's kinda racist movie. When you talk about people making bad thing you should ask yourself about reasons. Why a gang of human beings choose piracy against any other option? In the background exists a very deep social problem where everyone, European, American, and even us are guilty. If you told just the consequences, like they made here, then you have created another American superheroes movie and have told just a half of the human story. Just a half of the misery. Taking the bad side from the consequences of the poor policies against the humanity who lives in Africa, the land we all were coming from.

Captain Phillips starts off on a very interesting note, then somewhere deeper into its voyage, it drops to a resting point. The first hour of this film is gripping, and somewhat tense, however, the last hour is, relatively monotonous.What plays well into Captain Phillips's hands is that it is a biography, but it being shot almost like a fictional action flick kind of withdraws some much needed emotional attachment and interest, at least to the level that is deserved and necessary.Performances were satisfactory all around, but, I fear Barkhad Abdi may have gotten an Oscar Nomination for all the wrong reasons, because though his performance was sufficient, it wasn't really Oscar material.This film hit some areas very well, but sadly missed others, and like the U.S. Navy, it struggled to target all the meaty points as needed; it seemed to have a target on one or two targets at a time, but never that elusive three, so with that said, a 6.6/10 rating would be fitting.

There are multiple scenes in this film that make you feel good and some that make you feel bad. The hostage scenes look real, and have great affects. The boats also make a great part to the movie. Captain Phillips is a great actor and perfect for the movie. Altogether, this is a very realistic and dramatic movie that I cannot fault. 10/10 Recommend!
