Tension and chaos flood from incredible performances, making Captain Phillip’s powerful story riveting and compelling.
Captain Phillips is a tense fast-paced movie about a heroic captain saving lives and battling for his survival from pirates in the waters off the Horn of Africa. Hanks’ performance elevates the film from good to fantastic, making the fear, suspense, and quick decisions more frantic and pivotal. Paul Greengrass’ directing matched the story well, delivering a gritty, realistic thriller grounded in this courageous true story. Even with a long runtime, the plot was gripping and engaging. The quality and tension remind me of Deepwater Horizon or Patriots Day. Captain Phillips is an excellent film with a great cast and a powerful story.
