Review of In the Heart of the Sea

Thoughts Before I Watched This:
1. I been meaning to watch this for some time.
2. The story of Moby Dick was always fun and to see it's inspiration is great.
3. Ron Howard is usually quite an enjoyable director.
4. The cast itself is superb.
5. Charles Leavitt wrote Seventh Son and Blood Diamond which I found both to be enjoyable.
6. More so Blood Diamond of course.
7. Rick Jaffa and Amanda Silver are known for the newest Planet of the Apes movies as well as Jurassic World.
8. With all this in mind I'm even more excited to finally watch this.

Thoughts While I Watched This:
1. I didn't realize the author of Moby Dick would be portrayed here.
2. Of course you wouldn't want to talk about such an experience.
3. The sets are pretty and the acting is good so far.
4. The tension is predestined.
5. Oh just proving why he should be the captain.
6. I like that it isn't just white guys everywhere.
7. Well that seems like a good way to get rid of it.
8. You sir are an imbecile is what I would tell him.
9. The nerve of some people.
10. Aww dolphins!
11. Interesting history lesson here with how they get the oil.
12. Also eww!
13. That definitely gives that hint of Moby Dick without the revenge part.
14. Holy crap that is a lot of whales!
15. Some animals learn to take action.
16. Those are some of the most dangerous kinds.
17. I don't see how anyone could survive like this.
18. Maybe he just has an itch he is trying to scratch lol.
19. It's funny how tragic events can change peoples attitudes with each other.
20. Well it seems likely that that isn't a good sign.
21. They did that in such a tasteful yet tragic way.
22. That seemed a bit selfish.
23. Wow the actors really worked hard to make this feel realistic.
24. Good sport.
25. The ending is a bit on the sappy side.

Thoughts After I Watched This:
1. It's always amazing when an actor is so committed to their role they physically change dramatically for it.
2. Ron Howard proves that he has still got it.
3. Sometimes in the smaller boats the background looked a bit odd.
4. That was one cruel whale.
5. I was hoping it to be a bit better, but it's still fairly good.
6. I'm surprised that it flopped in the box office though considering the director and stars.
