2010: Moby Dick

2010 · 87 min

A cheap, silly creature-feature that lurches from one overblown set piece to the next, more funny than thrilling but never boring.

Tagline: Herman Melville's classic tale retold.
Overview: That infamous whale is bigger, badder and a whole lot stronger in this sci-fi reimagining of Herman Melville’s classic tale of the battle between man, sea and sea creature starring “Xena” alum Rene O’Connor as the (traditionally male) narrator. But the boat — now a high-tech submarine — is also bigger, and Capt. Ahab is as determined as ever to settle the score and take down the mighty sea mammal that maimed him.
How it feels: Campy, absurd, tense and dark. Brisk and easy to follow.
About: Obsession, revenge, survival, nature
Content: Mild violence, gore and language. No sexual content.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
