Scully Posted August 1, 2014 Report Share Posted August 1, 2014 Just watched Captain Phillips; riveting stuff. May buy the book now. If it's half as good as the film it'll be a good read. It will be interesting to find out how true to the story Hollywood kept it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rimfire4969 Posted August 2, 2014 Report Share Posted August 2, 2014 My wife and I thought it was realy good. Tom Hanks has to be right up there with the best out there and he is in my top 20 more than anyone else with the likes of Saving Private Ryan, Forest Gump and Cast Away.

Chasing Mavericks got a bit slated, but my kids and I really enjoyed it, we all surf so maybe that helped. One of those based on a true story that is worse for Jay a few years later.
