I loved this movie so much. In the beginning Captain Phillips was packing his suitcase because he was in charge of the Maersk Alabama which was going from one place in Africa to another place in Africa. With the route they were taking they had to pass through Somalian waters which were where the piracy has been happening. Captain Phillips had read the email about piracy and was trying to put his crew through the drills when actual pirates actually showed up and were trying to board the ship. When the four pirates finally reach the ship the captain has his crew already hidden. The pirates then go in to the control and has three hostages one of which is Captain Phillips. The pirates then want to know where the crew is so two of the pirates take Captain Phillips and goes to search the ship.When they get to the engine room one of the pirates steps on broken glass so the other pirate tells Captain Phillips to take him back and bring back another pirate. The leader of the pirates is captured by Captain Phillips crew and they try to get a trade off. It back fires when the pirates take Captain Phillips hostage in the life boat. The military and Seals were notified so they were on their way to the location of the life boat. When they reach the life boats location they try to negotiate with the pirates. They tell the leader of the pirates to come meet with the elders and they will negotiate with him. It was just a plan to get him out of the life boat and when they had a shot of the three other pirates they would kill them. After they killed the three other pirates they arrested the pirate leader and went to get Captain Phillips. As soon as they got him on board of the military ship they took him to the paramedics on board of the ship. He was happy to be rescued. He cried and so did my mom.
The only thing I did not like was when the pirates were beating up Captain Phillips.
