long response:
Comey was fired for lying? I think they were removed because trump is hiding something. I think everyone wants to know about this story because people are realized that they messed upppp voting for him. I believe the media has the right to question him. Yes, someone needs to be investigating him. I think there is a connection with Trump and Russia because, in reality, who would vote for him? I don't think enough is being done.

movie review
Captain Phillips: exaggerated?
2013's Captain Phillips featuring Tom Hanks as Captain Phillips and Barkhad Abdi as Abduwali Abdukhadir Muse, the head hijacker is told to be based off of a true story, though some characters feel their story hasn't been told. Even one of Phillips' crew who goes by ATM, says he alerted Phillips about the pirates only to have Phillips walk away and tell him it could be a fishing boat. Phillips denies this.
The question is, whose story is being told in this movie? Is the movie exaggerated to make some seem innocent and some guilty?
In the movie, Phillips received news about recent hijackings in the surrounding waters, but chose to keep his course. The Alabama sailed 300 to 400 miles from the Somali coast, in order to maintain a faster, more direct route, even though at least one warning cautioned that “vessels should consider maintaining a distance of more than 600 miles from Somalia coastline.” Phillips did not listen. The warnings were directed at all the ships in the area, but one was sent directly to Phillips.
The crew's efforts to take the ship back are also largely accurate, though some details are perceived as made up. The book never describes a barefoot pirate stumbling on a field of broken glass left by the crew as a booby trap. They all had sandals in the book.
Though he was made a hero by ensuing media reports, Phillips doesn't call himself a hero for these actions. In the movie, Phillips says things like, "If want to shoot someone, shoot me!" But Phillips says that he never meant to sacrifice himself for the crew, which is where the movie was exaggerated.
In real life, Phillips was on the rescue boat for almost five days, whereas in the movie it seems more like 36 hours or so.
In the movie, things got much worse after Phillips tried to escape, while one of the pirates was urinating off the boat. They asked him if he wanted beer, thinking that all Americans loved beer.
Overall, this movie seems slightly exaggerated and there are pieces that were missing and added in, but I would give this movie a rating of a 9 out of 10. I do recommend this movie for older ages just because there are very violent scenes and some bad words.
I loved this movie and I think it can teach many life lessons throughout it.
