Tom
Hanks gives one of his best performances ever playing the true life survivor
and hero of a Somali pirate hostage crisis that occurred in 2009. Capt. Richard
Phillips leads a crew of a cargo ship through the Indian Ocean when he’s faced
with a small group of pirates lead by the furious Barkhad Abdi. Paul Greengrass
directs and delivers an intense thriller that never gives its audience a break.
Of course with a tightly written script from Billy Ray that excels at being
suspenseful as well as emotionally dramatic I don’t see how he could have failed.
Every aspect of this film comes together just perfectly and helps make you
forget that this is the same actor who played Forrest Gump. Grade: A
