JD Duran

Captain Phillips is one of the most amazing films of the year so far and is driven by incredible performances from Tom Hanks and Barkhad Abdi. The story, while maybe not 100% accurate, is still amazing, intense and one that you’ll love to see.

Hanks, already an Academy Award winner, once again gave a masterful performance as the captain taking responsibility for his ship and crew.

Rather than villainize one side while valorizing the other ... bring out the humanity in virtually all the central characters, pulling back on the expected gallantry typical of such a dramatization to reveal something human underneath ...

Hanks is the casting coup here, and anchors (forgive the pun) the film with the sense of a normal, modest everyman who is in over his head.

Greengrass puts you through the trauma and leaves you almost as shaken as the film’s protagonist when it's over.
