Captain Philips

How many movies did you see today?

And I will watch anything with Tom hanks.

Great movie. Hanks final scene in the film will earn him a plethora of awards.

Great movie, but damn did it ever get me sea sick.

Crew members: is one big lie | New York Post

Basically crew members saying the captain was anything but a hero.

Hollywood vs Anonymous people.... I would tip the scales in favor of believing the anonymous people.

Did a lil googling, found this article

$30G went missing in SEAL rescue of Capt. Phillips; SEALs given polygraph test | Fox News

From fox (lol), so I guess they have the whole "This happened under Obamas watch, so no matter what happened it is wrong", but still adds another picture. Not 3 clean kills, but rather wound and exterminate.

If it is just one former crew member being angry because he wasn't portrayed in the movie, etc, then this will blow over. However, if the entire angle the story is show from (Phillips side) is wrong, and the entire crew can back it up, it will come to light. NY post article was just a few days ago, googling the captains name now pops up articles all over that references the NY Post article. No doubt at all that journalists from other publications will go to the other crew members to verify/deny that story.

For me, I don't care. I will watch the movie when I can simply because of Tom Hanks.

haha yeah cuz fox (lol). Go fuck yourself libtard.

Great movie, with a good cast. The Somali pirates were believable.

I think a majority of the crew members actually filed suit against Captain Phillips or the shipping company for negligence. Most of them won't be able to speak about it I'd imagine.

Great fucking movie. Best I've seen this year.

Kinda relevant :

Several crew members are actually involved in a lawsuit vs Maersk + Cap Phillips for negligence as their route was unnecessarily close to land.

Also, 2 of my coworkers were kidnapped last week off the coast of Nigeria. I believe the crew was left alone save for the Americans onboard. The company I work for has a contract with the Navy for some SEAL escorts, but not for this ship.

The guys are still being held as far as I know.

Great thriller with a very efficient contextualization of the events. The final few minutes shall earn Hanks some more well deserved awards for his cabinet. Greenglass' nervous filming maintained the tension, but this is no Bourne Ultimatum where every action scene had amazing use of space and view-points. The final 'action' scene though had a pretty clever use of darkness and light, even if, to my liking, it did not pay off as much as I would have wanted (but again, a big show of directing virtuosity might have been a bit out of place in the context of this film).

Three out of four stars.

PS: I hope Rod-138's coworkers are ok.
