The Whale Rezensionen & Wertungen
- Xokan23. Oktober 2025Watched twice. Alone. Loved it Everytime,
- Marcelo Scatena1. August 2025I was blown away by the performance. So much pain, so much loathing and so much sorrow. I really don't know if I can watch this again.
- Movie Reviewers' Club26. Februar 2026The Whale succeeded in capturing the harsh consequences of an "incurable" addiction. I must clarify on the small importance of what "incurable" means here. I believe the main point of this story is to focus on making peace with yourself in turn for peace for those we love. To listen to and feel the pain, all the hardships and see the struggle of Charlie's support give it even more importance. Importance that cannot be given solely through the eyes of the protagonist. After I started to see that side more, I started to feel a strong connection between The Whale and the film Beautiful Boy (worth the google). Both really commit to showing the deeper parts of what extreme addiction can look like and the extreme consequences that come with it. The concept of these two films focus on the addiction, the addict, but also engage more on the emotions from the others in the room. Giving help to someone in situations like this can be really hard to provide. What can make things worse is when that help is not wanted. Those are the emotions these two films work on building inside of you. To feel sorry for someone in a bad situation really sucks. Usually they mean a lot to us making it even worse. To also feel sorrow for those who give all they have to someone with little to no promise, that just sucks for everyone. I have to say this was a hard watch. It showcases the awkwardness and pretty much all that is uncomfortable. I will say this last as I definitely do not want to be discouraging. Its value is well worth more than the comfortableness of watching things unfold on screen. These are real life struggles that are presented raw and honestly. With The Whale, we can feel the sadness without the true loss.
- ayayron8. Februar 2026The performances ate and left no crumbs
- adampk177. Februar 2026A rough watch but I liked it quite a bit
- Rob6. Februar 2025One of the saddest films I have ever seen. I can see why it won awards, but damn.
- mickerdoo4. Februar 2026Extraordinarily tragic, yet well balanced. Each party had their reasons and motivations. Father/daughter dynamic got me crying. Hard watch.
- PrOx GaZz30. Januar 2026I thought Brandan Fraisers perfomance was outstanding, found it very moving and most will find this emotional. It felt like something real for a change on those that suffer in silence. Some scenes were hard to watch.
- Oʂɯαʅԃσ Rσყҽƚƚ13. Januar 2026It was very hard not to cry during several scenes. Branden Fraser is simply amazing. Under direction of Aronofsky it's probably the best dramatic film of the year. Fraser portrays the role to perfection. You feel sorrow for his character.
- Denis Peterson18. Dezember 2025Great movie
- Cubane17. Dezember 2025It's not the Fraser mukbang we wanted, but it's the Fraser mukbang we deserved.
- tellum18. August 2025Watch this movie to scare you straight into being a better father.
- Stephan DuVal14. Dezember 2025Beautiful and sad. Sadiful.
- carlos.s277. Dezember 2025Amazing movie
