Captain Phillips is a multi-layered examination of the 2009 hijacking of the U.S. container ship Maersk Alabama by a crew of Somali pirates. Based on a true story, the film focuses on the Alabama’s commanding officer, Captain Richard Phillips (two-time Academy Award®-winner Tom Hanks, Best Actor, 1993, Philadelphia; Best Actor, 1994, Forrest Gump), and the Somali pirate captain, Muse (Barkhad Abdi), who takes him hostage. The two men are set on an unstoppable collision course when Muse and his crew target Phillips’ unarmed ship; in the ensuing standoff, both men will find themselves at the mercy of forces beyond their control.

The movie is great. What I dislike is that prior to purchase iTune does not warn that in order for this legally purchased copy to be streamed from my Mac to my TV via AirPlay, I would need a HDCP compliant connection. As a result I can only view this on my Mac monitor rather than the large TV screen as I hoped too. Bad show iTunes and Apple. You should clearly mention this before anyone buys this film from your store. Buyer beware!!
