Back to film school with you, Greengrass

Rating: 1/10 (30 January 2014)

I understand it may be his "thing" as a director to film every single shot in a hand-held fashion but it makes Captain Phillips an incredibly unpleasant and frustrating thing to watch.
There is simply no excuse not to use a tripod, none at all. It is pathetic how this pointless and infantile fad spreads to other films too.
Don't waste your time or money on this garbage. There are far more sensible things you could be seeing.
Sorry Greengrass, but it seems you've still got a lot to learn about the fundamentals of filmmaking, the use of a tripod being your biggest oversight.
