Movie Review #2

4. He thinks the high points were the suspenseful elements, the acting abilities to show resourcefulness in both the pirates and the prisoners, and the different kind of closure the movie ended with.
5. He thinks some low points were that there were some plot particulars, and the tenseness of the movie may not correspond fairly with what happened in the actual event.
6. "Captain Phillips is a survival story of the second kind, and it’s stronger for it. The only time we see Hanks’ character’s wife (Catherine Keener) is in the opening scene as he’s heading off to port. In an almost comic parallel, Phillips talks about how difficult it is for young people to find work and rise to captain these days; the scene then changes to a coastal village in Somalia, where men jostle for a job as a pirate."
