Paul Greengrass, Tom Hanks – „Captain Phillips“ (2013)

Mit dem Label „Action-Thriller“ wird so mancher Film vermarktet, der eigentlich in seiner Natur eher etwas ganz anderes ist. In diesem Geiseldrama ist es nicht die „Action“, wegen der sich das Anschauen lohnt, sondern die psychologische Dimension der Handlung. Hier kämpft Armut gegen Globalisierung und Tom Hanks gibt einmal mehr keinen Helden, sondern einen Überlebenden. (ZDF, Wh.)
