Rooo Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 A post discussing downloading of movies & responses to it removed. Since no source to the movie download can be supplied , it is assumed that it is pirated & as such an illegal activity & against forum rules.

chris2004 Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 I was rather disappointed when i saw it, not the great movie it's hyped to be. When i can't understand is in this age of satellites, drones, attack helicopters etc how a few rag heads in a speedboat can highjack modern liners. I mean one sniper at the back of the ship could have taken out those 4 high jackers before they got within 1/2 mile of the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post champers Posted January 11, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted January 11, 2014 Watched this at Central Festival yesterday. 160 baht to view a film there now ? The price of cinema ticket seems to increase on each visit I make. Go on a Wednesday TaaSaparot - it's only 120 Baht. I thought Captain Phillips was awful. Tom Hanks played the same role he plays in all his films - Mr Faultless, the epitome of the apple-pie, mom-loving, stars and stripes flag-waving, better than anybody else American. Throw in millions of dollars worth of hardware (3 warships, a helicopter and a team of Navy Seals) to take on 4 (that's just four) Somali pirates. 3 of the pirates were shot dead and the 4th ended up being sentenced to 33 years in a high security prison in Terre Haute, Indiana. I left the cinema feeling empty. I've visited the USA many times and there are many, many wonderful people and places there. They are horribly misrepresented by this film. It essentially says "We are the mighty USA and if you cross us we will crush you mercilessly, no matter what the cost". Tom Hanks best film was Turner & Hooch, though the dog was the better actor. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering your English, I am curious to what Country you come from ? Actually my point was not as much the 160 baht, but the increase.I ts probably been a couple of months since I used Central to watch a movie, and I paid 130 baht. So there has been a 23% increase since then ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balo Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 (edited) In Norway the price of a ticket is 650 baht so for me 160 baht is a bargain , even if I earn 4 times less than when I lived and worked in Norway Edited January 12, 2014 by balo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OZEMADE Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 I saw the movie and it was not all that bad. It was also a true story that i do remember reading about some years ago, what jogged my memory was the navy seals snipers shooting all three pirates at the same time off the back of the USS BOXER. Obviously it being a movie, it will not show all the fear or the danger that the real captain and his crew went through, but they didn't do a bad job of showing it.
