Movie Prep

1. Captain Phillips, Chief Engineer Mike Perry, Navy SEALS, Ali Aden Elmi, Hamac & Abduwali Muse.

2. The ship would be headed in the general direction of Africa, carrying cargo and manned by Phillips and Perry, as well as other crew members. It then would get hijacked somewhere off the coast of Africa. The Maersk Alabama would sink the pirates' ship, but they would get on the boat. The crew of the boat would lock themselves in the engine room, and trap one of the pirates with them. The pirates would try to escape, and they would take the Captain hostage to try to exchange him for their friend. Then, the pirates would try to escape in their boat, but it wouldn't start, so the crew would drop the lifeboat to get back Captain Phillips. The pirates would take the boat and the Captain before the crew could do anything.  The crew would call many people to get it solved, and the movie would end with 3 of the pirates getting shot and killed, and Captain Phillips escaping.

3. This story was important because it shows that this is a real issue, and people should be aware of it. Also, it is very dramatic and eventful.

4. The pirates wanted the ship because they wanted the cargo on it, as well as machines and such. They were trying to rob the ship to make money.
