   Is 'the whale' a good movie?

   • “The Whale” is an abhorrent film, but it also features excellent performances. It gawks at the grotesquerie of its central figure beneath the guise of sentimentality, but it also offers sharp exchanges between its characters that ring with bracing honesty.

   Is 'the whale' worth watching?

   • Though it often offers surface-level readings about religion and father-daughter relationships, in particular, the film is worth the watch for Fraser’s performance alone. The Whale had its premiere at the 2022 Toronto International Film Festival on September 11. The film releases in theaters on December 9.

   Is 'the whale' a better movie than 'the wrestler'?

   • It's not so hard to imagine a better film, though. The Whale is a kind of companion piece to the director's 2008 hit, The Wrestler (although, unusually for Aronofsky, he didn't write either of them), in that it involves a man with an estranged daughter, a heart condition, and a body he has pushed to painfully unhealthy extremes.

   Is the Whale based on a true story?

   • Heavy and depressing as The Whale is, Brendan Fraser’s captivating and powerful performance lifts your heart. The Whale is based on the play of the same name by Samuel D. Hunter, and if that’s something you don’t know before the film stars, it’s something that becomes very obvious as you watch.

   What is the theme of the whale by Darren Aronofsky?

   • Human agony of both the physical and emotional kind is a Darren Aronofsky staple, but The Whale, which is driven by shattering work from Brendan Fraser as a 600-pound teacher eating himself to death, pushes that theme to extremes while remaining steadfastly within the borders of naturalism.

   Why is Darren Aronofsky's 'the whale' so important?

   • The most important stepping-stone on Fraser's route back to the A-list is Darren Aronofsky's The Whale, which premiered at the Venice Film Festival on Sunday. Why is it so important? For one thing, it's a high-profile drama from a big-name director. For another, Fraser has the lead role, and he appears in almost every scene.
