I can think of two reasons.
1. They would have killed all the hostages.
2. $30 Million Dollar Cruise Ship at the bottom wont make the owners happy.
No, I think the French did the right thing, they got the hostages out by paying a bribe and lulled th pirates into a false sense of security. Then attacked and captured the Pirates as they tried to flee with the money.
My only question is what the f*** was the cruise ship company doing sailing so close to Somali waters. Are the that goddamn stupid???
