Captain Phillips

Amazing movie.  This being the second time I have seen the film I realized why I like this movie so much.  The movie gets me really involved throughout the entire film making me more and more interested as to whats going to happen to Captain Philips and if the pirates are going to keep him alive or kill him.  I thought the acting was phenomenal because it really seemed as if the whole movie was real and kept me engaged the entire time. The actor who played Captain Phillips did a great job because he really portrayed the emotions well of one who was kidnapped and take under hostage and made me sympathize with him and fear for his life too.  I find the plot so interesting because I have never really seen a movie about pirates other than the Pirates of the Carribean which is hollywoodized already.  I thought it was so neat to see how these pirates would get onto these huge ships and make people pay them millions of dollars.  I didn't realize how big of a problem this once was on the coast of Somolia and thought it was really cool to learn about.  Overall, I really enjoyed this movie and will definitely be watching it again in my free time.
