Captain Phillips movie is just awesome as its Actor Tom Hanks. Everything in this movie from emotions to the location is just awesome

Captain Richard Philips may be introduced by Paul Greengrass for the first time to the world but for the hardcore First person shooters like me, he was not an alien. He was introduced to us by medal of honor warfighter, which just had a small level(Hat Trick) dedicated for him. Yet we never saw his face in that level, we just rescued him from the Somalian pirates. 
Today, I saw his face through never aging Tom Hanks, who lived the life of Captain Richard Philips in the movie Captain Phillips. From the start it was a high tension movie which was narrated how situation develops in Sea and how quick a captain need to take a decision. Right from fooling the pirates that the US navy is at their back in five minutes to getting captured by the pirates in the life boat, Tom Hanks displayed the wittyness of a captain. 
Barkhad Abdi is simply sensational who carried the weight of a Pirate Musa who is serving 33 years in US Jail and the pride of pirate and the way he earns money. Also he shows the character of a sensitive human condition when he says he and like every others are fisherman and his jokes like "I love America" during serious moments was just awesome.
Though the director gave a sensitive touch to Musa, he also shows priate courage who does not backout during their mission. It was well shown when he took away the boat from fellow pirate and the belief of Going to win at all times.
What makes this Movie amazing as Gravity is the final twenty minutes where the Operation Philips Rescue starts and builds up. Director was showing both sides of the coin by cleaverly showing what`s happening inside the boat where Captain Phillips broke down when he was blind folded (for execution) and the happenings at the bridge of frigate USS Bainbridge. Here Tom Hanks wins the score by exceptional numbers with his emotion of breaking down and even after the rescue. Simply amazing.
medal of honor warfighter just showed me the bridge and the snipper (actually i am the snipper in game) who took those three priates. This movie just showed me what actually went in there.
I can see around 5 Oscars here with best Acting by Tom Hanks and best supporting actor Barkhad Abdi with Best cinematography and finally the Best Director Paul Greengrass. If gravity does not make its way to best film category, then this is the movie of this year which will be unlikely to think of.
Tom, you added another Kohinoor in your hat after Saving Private Ryan.
