This Is Not A Drill | Captain Phillips
They made a chase with a slow ship more thrilling than many high speed car chases.
Car chase scenes bore me.
@@asmith8947yeah they all look alike
And u copy paste comments even faster then high speed car chases
Slow speed chase with a lot of tention. Watch "The way of the gun".
Real life is often crazier than fiction could even try to be
30 miles offshore in a rowboat. “They’re just fishing” 😅
feminine stupidity *
Who told you Mr. Rayan🤣
No, pirates use motherboats, and the pirate area is pretty large. But the more funny that usually vessels take onboard armed guards. From sri lanka, mostly colombo, to the almost suez ch. This movie is terrible and a great Hanks' fault.
@@roginovich987 He's just the actor. He's not the guy who made the movie lol
@@roginovich987movie isn’t terrible and it’s pretty realistic as it’s based on a true story. Before this happened in 2009 ships didn’t have armed guards on board
Tom hanks has played a captain on a ship, on a plane, and in the army. Captain of land sea and air
In his next movie he will play a captain of a football team
Give him a medal
@Yassine E. Well he did play a manager of a baseball team
Tom Hanks was a courier and he crashed on a deserted island. He was an airplane pilot and he ended up in a river. He was an airplane passenger and he got stuck at the airport. He was an astronaut and broke down in space. He was a lawyer and he got AIDS. When he was a kid he was intellectually challenged and he had polio. Just saying, he seems to be unlucky
And space too.
This movie is just torture. I cannot describe how much tention I felt when I watched it. The real stories are just the best.
he's in trouble you have to save him
Thats kinda the thing when you make a movie as 1:1 as you can to a REAL event
Watch the original and not the knockoff
this could have been an ordinary movie, but the actors made it so big
this could have been an ordinary comment but u made it so stupid
The Somali actors were actually unknowns until this film and the one playing the ringleader was in Alan Rickman's final film.
Music also did

The IRL Captain Phillips was incompetent so it's not that difficult to be smarter than him. He sailed very close to the Somali coastline because he wanted to save time/money on his trip. If he kept his distance none of this would've happened.
S.A.S here pal. I use to be green barret. But that was the video clip from last week 😂😂

respect to the crew for dealing with this maritime emergency as best they could
Didn’t they all get kidnapped and held hostage?
@@leonleon2276not sure of the real life story, but in the movie, the crew hides, and is able to get the pirates off the ship by unarming one of them. But they manage to kidnap captain Philips
@@TheReeelBradPitt In real life the crew sealed them self away so the pirates couldn't get them, and they still of captain Philips. But the irl captain Philips is a fuckwit who caused the incident by sailing into pirate waters.
The actors who are playing the pirates have really good balance on those little boats!
It's amazing that in 2009 Big ships like these would just sail around despite the value of their cargo without the proper fire and man power to defend itself properly.
Its honestly insane that they didnt hire at least one or two gunmen to stay with them
It’s 2023 and stuff still isn’t secure
Its the captains fault. They went through that part of the sea knowing there were going to be pirates but the captain "wanted to save cost" because they were behind schedule. The crew blamed him too.
Yups, the real Captain Phillips wasn't as nice as Tom Hanks@@aaronryder4008
They still do. Legal reasons, apparently.
In reality when Tom Hanks looks through those binoculars he's just looking into a empty Hollywood parking lot
At least the pirates are real?
Bet you are a blast to watch movies with🤦♂️
Movie was surprisingly accurate. Phillips actually did that bluff which convinced at least one boat to turn back
3:34 chill man.. he was just trying to be nice 😂

That bully got what he deserved

3:25 nice 1x magnification binoculars
Haha
I'm not a gun fanatic, I'm in the UK so largely against personal firearms, however I don't understand how these vessels do not carry lethal force where their crew or ship might be in critical danger. The Captain of a vessel in international waters is perfectly entitled to defend his vessel, including the use of lethal force if he deems it necessary. It's about time the insurers (Mostly Lloyds of London) got tough on operators when it comes to vessels being able to defend themselves, or more specifically their insurers risks...
But this problem doesnt exist anymore mate. Coalition fleets have succesfully gotten rid of the Somali pirates problem
@@shindenfighter3303 Are you joking? Piracy is still a severe problem and will likely be well into the future. This doesn't happen so much in Somalia as container ships avoid the area like the plague - Phillips should have as well but deliberately ignored piracy warnings. Nonetheless, as long as there is civil war and widespread poverty in Somalia, there will always be piracy, regardless of whatever coalition forces are mustered against it.
Then the pirates will in time obtain larger arms. RPGs and the like. Also, their lives are cheap - you have a family.
@@noahmarsden7231 A bit hard to avoid the Somalian coast if you're going anywhere that matters (Asia) lmao, but alright. You want pirates now, go to Yemen (stone throw away tbf) and the Gulf of Guinea And there are private security teams that can be taken on board, however theyre more of a liability than anything And whats more, a gun on board a ship where people who probably hate each other after a few months stuck in it... yeah, bad idea, might want to avoid that
because ships going to different countries with different laws on guns, not to mention the crew aren't trained to use weapons. however it has become a lot more recent of companies hiring private security who can defend the ship but thankfully piracy around Somalia has dropped significantly because ships are defended now and i think piracy isn't worth the risk/reward
Captain Smith was like : " We need sticky bombs right now. Ship crews : " Sticky bomb, captain?" Captain Smith : "I am not joking. Believe me, i've done it before."
It's a bomb that sticks.
Always good when the video gets cut in the middle of the scene
I like this movie a lot, seen it like 7 times lol.
Love it when he asks for the warship
I thought this movie would be boring but when I saw at the cinema I loved it!
I'll never forget when the pirate said "I am the Captain Phillips now."
And then proceeded to captain phillips all over the place
No actually. That's the wrong quote🙄 he "said it's phillipin' time "
Explain to me - how come that every single ship that sails in pirate territory isn't equipped with heavy guns for these occasions? Literally one M2 Browning .50 cal heavy machine-gun could "outshoot" pirate's small firearms and poke a few dozens holes in their boats. It's not like one gun with few thousands rounds of ammo and one or two skilled gunners in crew per ship would be that pricy for an international cargo companies.
the companies probably try to save money by not doing what you just stated. Also, if you bring on machine guns and other armaments, you need trained personnel to operate them. Trained armed personnel on board a ship = more operating cost including insurance coverage. Just guessing
Maybe western ships should not sail in Somalia waters I thought colonialism ended 😂😂
A couple of deer hunters with 30-06s would also take care of skiffs.😁

There are always no answer at pirate infested area when there is an emergency 😂
The Captain was in the wrong place trying to save fuel and an IDIOT for not taking other precautions
@@Zzus321 if you ever come at red sea and some pirates chasing you, most of the time if not coincidence no one is always answering
according to lawsuits filed by more than half of the crew of the Maersk Alabama. The crew members claim Phillips was at least partly at fault for an "insistence on being fast and making money ... [getting] the Alabama within 250 miles of the Somali coast..."
Each of these ships should have one proficient military employee.
Damn captain who doesnt carry even a piston 😂
Because of legal restrictions, you can't carry them in a ship.
if anyone did not know, the actors who played the teams were not introduced to the pirate heroes before shooting the scene on the bridge, and the fright of Tom and the team is real
That's what we call a good director. All movies should do it whenever possible. Do not let actors of opposing characters meet if they haven't
Imagine if the ship's crew had rifles on board at least even 1 AR that could've prevented this hijacking or scared off the pirates, rather than relying on some water hoses and flares... while armed security or PMCs would be idealy, although expensive, at least allow and have firearms on the boat for your crew, whether they be personal or company provided(with proper training) especially if you know you are travelling in waters/areas where pirates and hijackers are known to be at
Contrary to value of ships, goods, crews to have 10 gunman cannot be a big deal for the shipping company especially this route... somalia
the problem you run into is that carrying guns on merchant vessels could be seen as an act of war.
@@philipwright3847 then how would weapons deliver from one country to another.... obviously by commercial vessels. I don't think it is a big deal for the countries across the world to have a memorandum to have gunmans specially pirate prone sea routes.
@@Khan-lr3uo only merchant fleet who will carry weapons is MSC. Even if the rest of the fleet carried there are a fuck ton of rules to follow and you're still liable to damages caused by use of the weapon. Overall not worth it right now
@@philipwright3847 rules mean to follow.... whatever one or one thousands....,5-8 men having light weapons can save the entire ship and crew. At least the pirates dare to proceed..
Damn they actually zerged cargo, the scientists didn’t even fire back, must have been a glitch
underrated comment
He said port boat turned right lol
The coolest thing? The way they pick up and put down their phone.
That pickup at 0:43 is so clean from Hanks

Comment section full of people trying to rattle off every rifle name they've heard about.
I needed this , I'm the quite kid
👍 from India🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
Yeah. Easy to suggest; they're not gonna help pay for them though. Instead they'll just keep ordering their dildoes on Amazon with free shipping, so the cargo industry continues shipping things around the world at rock-bottom prices that don't reflect the true cost of fuel and human wages, and cut corners on safety and security.
You would be a hostage lol.. u have zero respect for people who know how to mitigate piracy. You need guns or u get raped or robbed. Self defense is a default setting in humanity if you didnt know lol
Africa. What a great contributor to the World.

May I know the movie name please? Thx in advance ❤
Captain Philips?!
great scene. starts with a dot on the screen and comes straight at you.
Radars DON'T BLEEP!
Had black hawk down been filmed at sea......
One man with a Barrett .50 on the fantail would settle this with about four shots. you don't have to hit the pirates, just punch a nice hole in the skiffs.
Thank you for your decades of service in our nation's naval special forces by the way.
Found the navy seal vet
You don't need a 50 BMG to punch a hole in a boat made out of sheet metal...
Man the water cannons!!!
Supposedly they went way closer to Samalia than they were really supposed to
I appreciate the little details, such as at around 5:35, Phillips seems to be well-aware of the possibility of the pirates tapping their radio communications, so he may be doing that second voice to try to frighten the pirates into thinking an actual naval warship is in communication and on its way.
***do not travel anywhere with Tom Hanks***
Big ship. Small skiff. 180 degrees.
Hardworking ... Pirates
This is peak cinema. Peak acting. Peak entertainment.
This what happens when Lieutenant Dan calls out sick
Lol
Tohle jsou naši.... EVROPŠTÍ BĚŽENCI....
Patrick Beverly leading with young lebron his assistant.
I don't know what's more surprising. The fact that the ship had no armed guards when going around the Horn of Africa or that help took as long as it did to arrive. One hopes lessons were learned. Not much point in having military deployments all around the world if they can't deal with a couple of teenagers armed with AKs and they need to wait for special forces to arrive from the US.
this heppend when those measures were just starting to be used, nowdays they should be better protected
In year 2000 there were 140 successful hijackings there, last year zero. western navies and a couple of cheap third world contractors with basic rifles ended the hijackings there
We got Oogaboogas at 6 o'clock
Actually those are the Boomshakalakas.
Securitas security company is a bunch of high school drop outs and armed in an armored truck to haul $10k from 7eleven to the bank but these freighters hauling billions of dollars in freight and a CONSTANT target of pirates arent aloud to be armed for some reason.
those are some badass fishermen
I studied Somalian piracy for a class in college, this movie was the reference!

They're not here to fish!"
Genuine question. Why don't they just agree to let them board, then when the pirates are climbing up just pour boiling water on them or something?
Maybe because they won't be climbing up all at the same time, and leave some people with guns behind to shoot anyone who's doing anything funny? This is not a Looney Tunes cartoon.
WHY IN THE HELL DID THEY NOT HAVE WEAPONS on the ship ??
“They’re not here to fish”

As a seafarer I would like to clarify that the cargo vessels are not allowed to carry arms, it’s an international harmless trade at all. So why you guys still being an ignorant and commenting without knowing all.

@@mehtabgohar1 fairytale for dreamers anyway
2:36 Did Phillips do a attempt slightly at a british accent when talking to the UK Maritime thing? Listen closely to his pronunciations.
If the ship had been 'armed to defend itself' Tom Hanks wouldn't have known about it!
Nice to see they too inspiration from rust when making this movie! 😀
He was told to avoid the area but didn't listen and then praised as a hero.😂😂😂
that is a myth. Phillips was totally in the main sea lane there. Same as 1,000 ships a year
@@teo2975 It's not much, but it might be his fault too, avoiding the area would've cost more money, that's why they didn't, but the real question is, was that his call or the company hiring him? If it's the former, then yes, I'd say he's partially to blame.
Nope. His crew were all crying out that this movie made him look like a saint when he wasn't.@@teo2975
Even with a bolt action rifle this would've been a turkey shoot.

@@Cd5ssmffan Range is not long, and surface is is very slow roll. Anyone's daughter could do it bro. Many have noted it. And even arming crew members with very little experience ended these hijackings which have fallen to zero

my all time favourite movie. Tom hanks was best in this movie
He was also great in bridge of spies,extremely underrated movie.
I understand there are maritime laws that forbid cargo ships crews from toting weapons, but at what point do they weigh the risks of getting penalized with the risks of getting slaughtered by third world pirates ?
I guess it's just chaper
