Review of Moby Dick

Moby Dick (1998)
9/10
The broken-man-complex and the Whale
21 February 2022
Warning: Spoilers
Iconic and unforgettable. Sir Patrick Stewart's personified Ahab's twisted and bitter character elegantly and brilliantly. At certain moments he was absolutely terrifying and crawls under your skin. The blinded sheep-like crew makes you feel uneasy as you pity the presence of poor Ishmael in their midst meanwhile you admire the magnificence of Queequeg and his devout sense of friendship towards Ishmael, the unfortunate wannabe sailor.

The mighty fearsome whale strikes the Pequod as fiercely as it strikes your heart. Your sense of cold loneliness and abandonment grows while the masts breakdown in the abyss of the bottomless seas.
