BradWesley123's Movie Journal- April 2016 (30 movies items)" DVD- 2hrs. 2min. First Viewing While the film is technically magnificent, In the Heart of the Sea is mostly a stale Moby Dick rehash with a bland script and rote characters.

“Back in 2013, Ron Howard and Chris Hemsworth made together 'Rush' which was a box-office flop but, at least, it was very well received and, apparently, this end-result was good enough for them so they came up afterwards with another true tale but the flop was even bigger this time, I'm afraid.

Movies Of 2016 (252 movies items)"NO FISHERMAN'S LUCK Seafaring were interesting to follow. To see how the crew worked the whaler and how they hunted whales and collected the whale oil.

2015 Movies - Worst to Best IMO... (60 movies items)"Lots of Hollywood gloss. Still can't quite bring down what seems like an otherwise interesting subject. I liked Tom Holland's accent in the film. Pretty cinematography. It's not really as bad as everyone says it is. All it really needed was a little more heart."
