      Yeah I really enjoyed this too, Hanks was incredible. The "pirates" were convincing as well.

      It was fun while it lasted...

          This was a great movie. Tom Hanks was amazing. The entire last hour and especially the end scene were great...very intense.

            Even my 21 month old was captivated by Tom in that scene. It was amazing to watch his reaction (my sons), he was glued to the screen at home during that. I also had something in my eye I think, a piece of dust or something, because my eyes started watering.

              Dailybeast.... "There’s a procedure that you can be very confident in, and there is a behavior that, if you’re lucky, you can recreate. The first take completely fell apart because these people had never been in a movie before and they could not get past the horrible self-consciousness of everything going on around them. So we stopped and tried it again. At that point, the people were quite amazing, particularly the woman [who tended to Phillips], and we just ran through it. It took about an hour and a half.”In that mesmerizing five-minute sequence, shot very tight by Ackroyd and Greengrass, Hanks goes to a place he hasn’t been since Philadelphia. And when this generation’s Jimmy Stewart breaks down, well, we all follow suit.
              “The actor’s job is to divine and embody the truth, and that day was a very interesting case in point,” said Greengrass. “With great actors, there’s just a tiny gap. The door is there, and it takes courage to walk through it, as an actor, and find the truth. That’s what is there in that scene—the truth of vulnerability, shock, confusion, and all the things that you’d expect of an experience like that. There’s a shocking sense of humanity. You have to seize those moments…and Tom did.”

              >>I haven't seen it, but I might someday... not really into these types of movies. I like true stories alot though. Hanks was phenomenal in Cast Away & Philadelphia, and I hear the Mr Banks movie is quite good, surprisingly. Whatever the secret ingredient is for a brilliant actor, Hanks has definitely got it! Any other Tom Hanks movies you liked alot?

                        Shame .. but I really can't stand Tom Hanks.

                        If I watched this I'd end up supporting the pirates !
