Regardless of whether this was 100% accurate to what really happened, how is a pirate kidnapping of a major cargo ship's captain not a story worthy of a major motion picture? You do know there are motion pictures about road trips of stupid and horny teens dont you?

Me too! Best movie that's been on over Christmas here

I watched this film last night on the ITV network here in the UK. It is one of the best films I have seen in recent years.

All opinions are subjective.
This movie was not accurate to the real life event when it comes to the Captain. It's still a great flick though (in my opinion).

Really? A present day pirating of an American ship and citizens is not worthy of an American made motion picture?
Maybe you're right, afterall such pirating happens all the time to US cargo ships.
