CAPTAIN PHILLIPS
Orientation.
Captain Phillips is an upcoming 2013 American biographical action
thriller film directed by Paul Greengrass based upon the book, A Captain's
Duty: Somali Pirates, Navy SEALs, and Dangerous days at Sea, by Richard
Phillips with Stephan Tatty, and starring Tom Hanks. It is produced by Scott
Rudin, Dana Brunetti, and Michael De Luca. The film tells a biopic of
merchant mariner Captain Richard Phillips, who was taken hostage for
several days by Somali Pirates when the container ship Maersk Alabama
which sailed from southern Oman drown along the coast of Somalia and then
to Kenya was hijacked in 2009.
Evaluation
Captain Richard Phillips (Tom Hanks), a veteran merchant mariner, still lives
in his native New England, and he's a plainspoken family man full of anxiety
about the economically bleak new world his kids are facing. When his wife
(Chaterine Keener) drops him off at the airport, we can see reverse her. The
film then cuts to Somalia, a land of dust and poverty, where the pirates are
recruited for their mission as if they were migrant farm workers lining up to
be chosen for that day's labor. Greengrass doesn't have to fill in much about
the violent, chaotic breakdown of Somalia to let us know that these men have
little choice.
Interpretation and summary
The film does not generate quite the same level of excruciating suspense as
some of Greengrass' previous triumphs, but it nonetheless holds us hostage as
it proceeds. As for the four Somali immigrants, they are remarkably effective
in their first professional acting gigs.

KAPTEN PHILLIPS

Captain Phillips adalah film thriller aksi biografi Amerika 2013 mendatang yang disutradarai oleh Paul
Greengrass berdasarkan buku, A Captain's Duty: Somali Pirates, Navy SEALs, and Dangerous days at
Sea, oleh Richard Phillips dengan Stephan Tatty, dan dibintangi oleh Tom Hanks. Ini diproduksi oleh
Scott Rudin, Dana Brunetti, dan Michael De Luca. Film ini menceritakan film biografi pedagang pelaut
Kapten Richard Phillips, yang disandera selama beberapa hari oleh Bajak Laut Somalia ketika kapal
kontainer Maersk Alabama yang berlayar dari Oman selatan tenggelam di sepanjang pantai Somalia dan
kemudian ke Kenya dibajak pada tahun 2009.

Kapten Richard Phillips (Tom Hanks), seorang pelaut pedagang veteran, masih tinggal di kampung
halamannya di New England, dan dia seorang pria keluarga yang blak-blakan penuh kecemasan tentang
dunia baru yang suram secara ekonomi yang dihadapi anak-anaknya. Ketika istrinya (Chaterine Keener)
menurunkannya di bandara, kita bisa melihat sebaliknya. Film ini kemudian beralih ke Somalia, tanah
debu dan kemiskinan, di mana para perompak direkrut untuk misi mereka seolah-olah mereka adalah
pekerja pertanian migran yang antre untuk dipilih sebagai tenaga kerja hari itu. Greengrass tidak perlu
mengisi banyak hal tentang kehancuran Somalia yang penuh kekerasan dan kekacauan untuk memberi
tahu kami bahwa orang-orang ini tidak punya banyak pilihan.

Film ini tidak menghasilkan tingkat ketegangan yang menyiksa yang sama seperti beberapa kemenangan
Greengrass sebelumnya, tetapi tetap menyandera kami saat film itu berlanjut. Adapun empat imigran
Somalia, mereka sangat efektif dalam pertunjukan akting profesional pertama mereka.
