Default Captain Phillips

I just finished watching "Captain Phillips" with Tom Hanks playing the
lead role as Captain Phillips. Based on the 2009 pirate attack off the
Somali coast.

I don't watch movies often so I don't qualify as much of a critic, but I
thought it was pretty good. Don't know how accurate it was but you sure
get the sense of terror that he must have experienced. Also had great
footage of the US Navy ships and the Seals that came to his rescue.

Watched it on the iMac using the Samsung portable DVD player/writer that
Harry recommended. Works great.
