Paul Greengrass directs here. He also directed the excellent films 'The Bourne Supremacy' and 'The Bourne Ultimatum' and the not so excellent 'Green Zone' and 'United 93'.
I can't fault too much with it. Tom Hanks does a great job in the lead role. It's a really well made and gripping piece of work. It could have gone so wrong in the hands of a lesser director but Greengrass keeps the focus on Phillips and the Somali pirates for most of the film and it is so much better for it. Recommended, see it in the cinema.
Caught this and Blue Jasmine there on Friday. Both very good. You have to see this in the cinema, totally agree with you there Shane. It looks and sounds amazing.
ReplyDeleteCool. Yeah, really liked both films. Gravity will be the next one I go to I'd say. Not going to see it in IMAX in Dublin anymore though, unless anyone here wants to make the trip up?
