The Whale is a movie that demands A LOT from its audience. It demands your sympathy, your time, and your patience. It feels pointless to give praise to Brendan for his performance. He kills it. He yells and stretches out his arm and rips your heart out. The rest of the cast does a good job. The script is pretty decent, but not every line is perfect or great.
The other technical aspects all work together in a powerful way, but I wasn't crazy about the way the movie ended, personally. I felt like I missed something, and the artist choices made ar the end felt a wee bit overdramatic.
Some people are gonna love this one. I thought it was pretty good with an amazing performance at the center.
