[@Immortalkalashnikov]

He IS the movie, no doubt. I LOVE Tom Hanks but this guy, just amazing.

[@toeupfromtheflowup469]

As an actor myself so can tell you the reason he was good is because he wasn't even acting. He was so thrown into the fire he was overwhelmed and those emotions made it seem like a reality experience. I can guarantee you if he gets a non Somali pirate role he will be mediocre and that's a stretch. I like the guy don't get me wrong. On the other hand his angry friend was incredible. He was good. The taller angrier guy was better. That's just fact.

[@why2607]

ToeUp FromTheFlowUp Everyone's opinion is important, however, I can't agree with you that the taller, angrier pirate (Faysal Ahmed) was better than Barkhad. I thought all the Somali actors did an outstanding job but Barkhad really was quite terrific. He gave the role a complexity and vulnerability and I sure hope he is more than mediocre in any future roles that he has - I guess we will just have to wait and see. As far as Faysal Ahmed goes, if I had to pick a weak link in the Somali performances, it would be his. He started off high-pitched and incredibly angry and had no where to go but up - heading towards the over-the-top territory. There didn't seem to be as much complexity or nuance to his performance compared to Barkhad's. Don't get me wrong, I still think he was very effective and I really hope he gets some good roles too, but, to me, Barkhad was the standout. That's just my fact.

[@grammaticalerorr4654]

Thatwouldbeme ToeUp FromTheFlowUp I really don't understand why Tom Hanks didn't get nominated for the oscar :/

[@TrashteamsweTk]

You got that right, and the amazing part is that this is his first movie!

[@manmelt4037]

Honestly, any big name actor could have played Captain Phillips. But this guy, and the other pirates , made the movie what it is. They were phenomenal, and incredibly believable. Things would not have turned out as well without them.

[@Scarecrow545]

Manmelt Dude, WHAT? I can't think of ANY other actor that could have nailed the end scene in the medical bay the way Hanks did.

[@noelle412]

Manmelt I agree with you that the movie would not have turned out as well without Abdi and the other pirate actors but I hugely disagree that anyone would have been as emotionally invested as they were when watching if it hadn't been for Tom Hanks - he is definitely not an exchangeable actor.

[@AshKetchup123]

Scarecrow545 That's true no one can cry at the end of a movie quite like Tom Hanks. He has cornered the nautical movie crying niche.

[@FA-cx6dt]

Dans Blair I totally agree with your comment.Tom Hanks is brilliant.

[@gregorywineland9173]

Dude, I have to say that scene at the end where Hanks cries was incredilble.

[@benmilton5501]

The biggest compliment I can pay Barkhad Abdi is that it didn’t even seem like he was acting. He was real. The way he spoke, the way he stood, the way he ruffled his beard after first seeing Tom as Captain Phillips…. It was all completely natural seeming so much so that it just felt like he’d jumped on the movie set as a real life pirate and got on with it. Absolutely incredible.

[@danyellwar77]

Right and he was only paid 65,000.

[@chansherly212]

danyellwar77 what??? i thought there was an extra zero behind there

[@donc9275]

danyellwar77 He was paid far more than dollars for his film debut, he has gone from limo driver/ cell phone salesman to film actor with a very promising career and on his very first attempt at acting. His future is one that ANY actor would give anything for. This role was his E-ticket into the world of fame and fortune. Sorry to say, but you don't start out at top pay scale or any where near top pay on your first paying acting job. You have to prove yourself and you have to be able to bring in paying customers to see your films. $65K for your first acting job and 3 months work is pretty damn good.
