About six weeks ago we went and saw the Woody Allen film 'Blue Jasmine' with Cate Blanchett at SS and thought this was the best movie we've seen in quite awhile. Then we went and saw 'Prisoners' with Hugh Jackman and Jake Gyllenhaal and thought, this is really riveting, even better and gave it 10 stars. Then we saw 'Gravity', and once again it was better than I expected and was really great in 3D. Finally we saw 'Captain Phillips', and only expected to see a good film, nothing great, but we were surprised. It was my favorite of the group, kept my attention all the way through. Even though it ran 2 hours and 10 minutes, it didn't feel long. Much like 'Prisoners', also a long film, I wouldn't know where to cut, you are getting your money's worth with 'Captain Phillips'.
