Paul Greengrass, who did a great job with "United 93 (2006)", once again gives us a movie based on real events. This time it's about Somali pirates and a cargo ship.
Good production, but there's nothing really new or exceptionally interesting about the movie. It's just OK - and like most movies nowadays, it's over 2 hours and a bit too long.
Good score by Henry Jackman is the main reason for keeping the movie intense and interesting for so long.
Too much shaky cam (annoying especially in the beginning of the movie).
The cast is good. Tom Hanks gives an excellent performance during the last 5 min of the movie - which is worth the entire movie, I guess - but it doesn't justify a Golden Globes nomination.
