The United States was one of the safest countries in the world at the time. No matter where the American people go, they have a kind of pride and self-confidence. But the Dao is one foot high and the devil is one foot high, even if you have a cloud hand, you can hardly escape the net of heaven and earth. Even if you are an American, you are a bit short in front of Somali pirates.
"Captain Philip" reproduces the battle between a sea-going captain and a pirate, and is adapted from a real thing that happened in 2009, full of highlights. In fact, before watching this film, I was afraid of falling into clichés and becoming a hero’s hymn or a U.S. Navy draft advertisement. However, after reading it, such worries dispelled a lot. The director still added a lot of problem awareness to it.
The above said that when going home and returning to the city during the Spring Festival, we must pay attention to safety, not for the sake of the occasion. For car owners, the problem of traffic safety is even greater. It is necessary to prevent safety accidents and unnecessary quarrels with traffic control departments. It is also necessary to prevent rubbings with other vehicles, and it is necessary to prevent accidents. The story and the big quarrel. After all, in this era where there is no lack of heroes, we are all ordinary people. We may all be born as Captain Philip. Once the accident falls on us, we will be forced to be helpless and have no choice. The distance between us and Captain Philip lies in whether we run into those things.
The great thing about Captain Philip is that it does not focus on American Philip, and is not made into a film that simply praises the Americans, but also focuses on the story of the Somali pirates who are contradictory. Even the whole film is more exciting, the part of the Somali pirates is better than the part of the American drama. The film does not make facial makeup, but explores the rationality of their respective identities and the tragic nature of the whole story.
At the beginning, Captain Philip is about to set sail. He is the captain. He still has to face children's education and family problems. He is like an ordinary American white-collar worker, without the tall details, but the short bits and pieces of the parents. The beginning tells us that Philip is not far from us, and when Philip set out, in Somalia, Africa, a pirate squad was also being formed. It is said that they are pirates, but they are actually local fishermen. Because the cost of local fishing is too little income, they have to go to Liangshan to make a living as a pirate and eat a lot of food. Moreover, just like Philip is just a wage earner, pirates also have their own bosses. Their income from going out to be pirates must first be turned in, and very few really remain in their own hands. If you think of pirates as a job, the little pirates are just ordinary office workers, no different from Philip. The majority of the work is taken away by the boss, and they only earn a little hard-earned money. Therefore, Moose, the leader of this pirate squad, said like showing off that he had done a lot of votes and received a lot of ransoms, but when asked how much he had arrived, Moose was silent.
However, for Moose, as a former fisherman, he did not completely lose his conscience in doing things, but only regarded being a pirate as a job. In his eyes, robbing the ship, harvesting the ransom, then letting the ship go, and getting the share he deserves, everything is fine. Therefore, he repeatedly said "Nothing will happen" and "No one will get hurt", trying to keep the situation within his control. However, due to the serious asymmetry of information and the harshness of the nature of the incident. Moose obviously underestimated his opponent, both Captain Philip and the naval power of the escort. Finally, everything went to the side that was unfavorable to him. First, two pirate ships were tricked away by Philip. The squad on the pirate ship where Moose was located was also wiped out in three of four, and only Moose himself was taken to the United States. On trial. The Somali pirate Moose's looting plan failed completely, just like a mission that seemed to be hand-in-hand, but caused heavy casualties on his side. This kind of pain is also painful for Moose. Once, his American dream was to go to New York to buy a good car and drive it well. Now, he can achieve it by leaps and bounds. But this way can't make people happy, no one can be happy, nor can Philip who has won.
In China's traffic, there have been many conflicts between drivers and traffic control system personnel, and even bloody conflicts have occurred. On the one hand, the driver is the vulnerable party and has to bear the income of the entire family, but the people in the traffic control system are also the pillars of the family. But to manage and be managed, tragedies inevitably happen. Just like pirates and anti-pirates, the relationship between the two is always opposite. Pirates can only reap the rewards if they capture ships, while anti-pirate ships will suffer huge losses as long as they are controlled by pirates. Conflict is inevitable, but both parties involved in the conflict are flesh and blood. As long as we fall into tragedy and face bloodshed and sacrifice, no one can be happy.
"Captain Philip" shoots a thrilling documentary story, very beautiful. There is only a little bit of misfortune, that is, Tom Hanks, as a movie star with impeccable acting skills, was robbed by several tall and thin pirates in the scene.
