OK submitted by leenajong on July 18, 2015, 1:08pm Ok movie. Good performance from Hank as always but the other casts could have been better.

definitely worth watching submitted by 21621031390949 on August 11, 2016, 9:25pm This is a tense movie about a real piracy event. Tom Hanks is super, as always, and I think other actors were good and it was well-directed. Entertaining, but stressful

Suspenseful submitted by steveiew on July 1, 2017, 9:46am Despite the awful opening dialog this was a pretty good movie. There was a lot of suspense even though the ending was known.
