Superb, tense, frustrating and exciting!

Rating: 10/10 (30 January 2017)

My word does Tom Hanks play his part to perfection in this film. And Barkhad Abdi does a fine job and is worthy of mention in this superb film. The tension is great, the frustration when opportunities are missed and the excitement of the whole film is unmissable in my opinion.
The casting for the film was perfect, someone get the best for the film and did this true story great credit. I bought it (as with all the films I review) and would happily recommend you add it to your collection. This film will take you on a journey not just on a ship but through your emotions because it draws you in and its like being there but you are totally helpless! Yes, I did find myself shouting at the screen a few times in frustration because the film is so involving.
