The Real Captain Phillips Crew Has A Big Issue With Him Being Called A Hero Namely that they’re really uncomfortable with the portrayal of Captain Richard Phillips as a hero. A crew member spoke to the New York Post on the condition of anonymity and said: “Phillips wasn’t the big leader like he is in the movie. No one wants to sail with him.”. According to this man, Captain Phillips has a reputation for being sullen and self-righteous. And more than that, instead of putting his life and safety on the line to protect his crew, as Tom Hanks depicts him in the movie, this crew member alleges that his behavior actually put the ship and its crew in more danger.

The A-Team At the end of their stint in Viet Nam, Col. John Hannibal Smith and his team were framed for robbing the Bank of Hanoi (which they had done, but under orders), and sent to a US military prison. They escaped and went on the run, pursued first by Col. Lynch and later by Col. Decker. While on the lam, they became heroes for hire, working as good-guy vigilantes around the US or the world. Hannibal was their leader and an expert at disguises. Face was the team's con artist and ladies man. BA (officially Bad Attitude) was their mechanic, but also took care of mayhem and intimidation.
