Excellent film about a young man who is swallowed by a huge sperm whale while diving. An original film in which the scenes inside the whale look quite good (claustrophobic and terrifying). The alternation between horror and drama works unexpectedly well here. It is, after all, the strained father-son relationship that takes center stage.
