The Whale brought me to tears. Brendan Fraser delivered his best performance yet. It was hard to watch but his presence kept you from looking away. He brought forth such a vast amount of empathy in me that I was emotionally drained afterward. His story was the best example of being stuck between a rock and a hard place. When you get into the meat of the film and have learned everything that has transpired in Charlie’s life, you root for him. Even after you learn of his mistakes. It’s purely gut-wrenching.

Not only did Fraser perform flawlessly, but the entire cast also poured their souls into the film. Hong Chau as Liz was simply perfect. Her emotions rang through loud and clear as did her presence. She is small in stature but her personality filled the room. Sadie Sink as Ellie was another bullseye. Her character had so much anger and emotional pain that her scenes were hard to watch also. You felt her pain, you felt her sadness and her anger bordered on rage. Ty Simpkins as Thomas was a breath of fresh air, or so you think. But hello, there are issues there too and he portrays them on screen with the gusto of the most seasoned actor. Samantha Morton as Mary, the ex-wife showed another side of the pain bringing the movie full circle. What I’m getting at is this is perfection. Every single aspect.

I do highly recommend this movie but know that it is not fun, it’s a spiral staircase leading right into emptiness.

Grade: A+

About The Peetimes: I recommend the 1st Peetime. I feel between the 2 the 1st was easier to summarize for you without ruining the flow of the movie. The Whale is so intense that no Peetime will do it justice.

There are no extra scenes during, or after, the end credits of The Whale.

This is a great app. I wish more people would support it

This app provides info about movies, reviews, ratings from people who have seen it before and after viewing. It has links to info about the movies. It let’s you know when there will be a lull in the action and how long it will last. If you want to know what happens during that time, you can check the brief synopsis (you have to click a link, so no accidental spoilers). It has a timer you can set (silent) to alert you to a break. It also tells you whether there is anything extra during or after the credits. It’s really a wonderful app. I’ve subscribed for a couple of years to support the developers, but I noticed some of the links to provide feedback didn’t seem to work today. They also made it free, with voluntary donations to see the pee-times. If you haven’t tried it, I encourage you to do so, and subscribe if you like it. I really hope the app is supported so it can continue to be maintained!

Developers note: RunPee doesn’t make much money but it supports itself nicely. Donations are appreciated, but not required. We’ll add as many movies to the database as we can until there are no more movie theaters.
