The story takes place in the winter of 1820. A whaling ship called the Essex sailed in the vast South Pacific. What all the crew did not expect was that at this time, there was a lurking ship with a super IQ and The whale with a strong sense of revenge is preparing to execute its revenge plan. Soon, the whaling ship was attacked by whales repeatedly, and the fragile hull quickly became fragmented under the impact of the huge whale, and the crew suffered heavy casualties. A group of survivors, including First Mate Owen, crew member Nixon, and Matthew, huddled in the boat and drifted in the open sea for 90 days. During these 90 days, the scenes of hell on earth were staged in the small boats.

    In order to adapt to the movie, there are too many adaptations of the original work.

    What a majestic adventure epic, it maintains the consistent advantages of Long Howard's movies, compact, heavy, and classical, with the struggle between man and nature in "Perfect Storm", and the torment of drifting on the sea in "Boy Pi". The ultimate experience of life, if only I could go to the theater to watch it!

In the Heart of the Sea quotes

  • [first lines]

    Herman Melville: [in his letter] How does one come to know the unknowable? What faculties must a man possess? Since it was discovered that whale oil could light our cities in ways never achieved before, it created global demand. It has pushed man to venture further and further into the deep blue unknown. We know not its depths, nor the host of creatures that live there. Monsters. Are they real?

    [a huge whale passes]

    Herman Melville: Or do the stories exist only to make us respect the sea's dark secrets?

    Herman Melville: The question both vexes and excites me, and is the reason I've written you a second time to request a meeting. A conversation with you, sir, I believe will serve me well for the novel I intend to write, currently entitled: Moby Dick. I hope you will reconsider my offer. The unknown. That is where my imagination yearns to venture. And so the question plagues me still: How does a man come to know the unknowable? Sincerely, Herman Melville.

  • Paul Mason: Blood, Mr. Chase. You can have all the voyages under your belt you want, but blood will always win out.

    Owen Coffin: Yes, well, blood is not gonna fill a ship with oil, Mr. Mason.
