Another re-working of Herman Neville's novel sees the mad bad and dangerous to know Captain Ahab taking his increasingly reluctant crew on an all consuming quest for vengeance against the infamous white whale, Moby Dick. A class cast and some decent production values make this a tempting alternative to actually reading the classic.

THE REEF (2010)
Certification12 Our Rating
A great white shark hunts the crew of a capsized sailboat along the Great Barrier Reef. Owing a debt to the no-budget thrills of 2003's Open Water, The Reef is surprisingly watchable pulp. It comes to life when the great white shark gets involved, who (ironically) acts the cast out of the water. Some genuine tension and competent camerawork elevates it above the pitfalls common to the genre.
