Review of Leviathan

Leviathan (I) (2012)
2/10
don't bother
24 October 2013
A portrait of the contemporary commercial fishing industry. Filmed off the coast of New Bedford, Massachusetts – at one time the whaling capital of the world as well as Melville's inspiration for 'Moby Dick'; it is today the country's largest fishing port with over 500 ships sailing from its harbor every month. Leviathan follows one such vessel, a hulking ground fish trawler, into the surrounding murky black waters on a weeks- long fishing expedition.

I was looking forward to it but really was quite rubbish. No character development, no plot, no dialog, no anything really except a bunch of monotonous visuals.Tried to watch it twice, gave up the first time and dozed off the second time. Don't waste time watching it.Very pointless.
