In the Heart of the Sea 3D
Director Ron Howard and actor Chris Hemsworth reunite after 2013’s Rush with this retelling of the true story that inspired Herman Melville’s classic novel Moby Dick. Co-stars Cillian Murphy and Brendon Gleeson.
In the winter of 1820, the New England whaling ship Essex was assaulted by something no one could believe: a whale of mammoth size and will, and an almost human sense of vengeance. The maritime disaster brought on a harrowing aftermath, pushing the ship’s surviving crew to their limits stranded at sea for 90 days and forced to do the unthinkable to stay alive.

Total Film
Kudos to Ron Howard for taking a slightly different approach, even if it never quite matches the resonance of Ahab's epic quest.

The Guardian
Hemsworth, botched New England accent and all, is a movie star, and this is movie star material.

FilmInk
What the film lacks in terms of Melville's thunderous exposition of human frailty and obsession it makes up for in rollicking entertainment.
