If you loved Captain Phillips, try 22 July

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. 22 July has roughly 5.9× fewer votes than Captain Phillips — it's a deeper cut, not a mainstream recommendation. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Paul Greengrass, and they sit in Drama / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Captain Phillips, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What 22 July is

Utøya Island, summer, a ferry dock creaks. A Labour Party Youth Camp shattered, Norway's political landscape forever altered. Greengrass tackles the fallout with characteristic immediacy.
