- The vintage grotesquerie of the regular old whaling process turns out to be more disturbing than the dark adventures that are In the Heart of the Sea's reason for being.
- Warner Bros. would have been better off sticking with the film's original March release date and selling it as a horror movie.
- If you want a Ron Howard movie about a man obsessed with a creature from the deep, 'In the Heart of the Sea,' sadly, is not the place to start. Try 'Splash.'
- If a silent whale is your most magnetic screen presence, he should probably appear for more than a few minutes.
- There's a hollow at the heart of things, a strange decency and politeness for a film that strives to depict, in epic form, man's dark and visceral struggle with the world and himself.

If the movie accomplishes nothing else, though, I hope it inspires the curious to actually sit down and finally read Moby-Dick.- Most of the second half is spent drifting with them on lifeboats. In these interminable minutes, we don't get anything resembling an understanding of how they survived (or didn't) either mentally or physically.
- A few scenes in In the Heart of the Sea hint at how effective the film might have been if told purely as a gripping story of man versus nature.

The meat-and-potatoes Howard is uncomfortable in the realm of the spirit, or the metaphysical. He can film objects, and he can film people, but he can't quite film emptiness. The cosmic vastness of the sea eludes him.- At the heart of the problem with this period piece is an absence of a riveting scene or a memorable slice of dialogue.
- A lumbering sea adventure that never finds its bearings, Ron Howard's 'In the Heart of the Sea' is a whale of a dud.
- It is so very many different things, but they all feel detached from each other, almost like a bunch of self-contained mini-movies stitched end-to-end, with the framing device serving as needle and thread.
- Howard creates an immersive, gorgeously shot experience pitting man against beast in the ocean for the film's most spectacular scenes, which are reminiscent of old-school scope of Mutiny on the Bounty and other watery adventures of yesteryear.
- All the accents in this movie sound as if the actors had been coached to talk like Red Sox fans magically transported to the 1820s.
- Visually and viscerally, the film provides reasons to pay the price of admission and see it in a theater.
- The biggest mistake here ... is a misbegotten decorousness that sinks the movie, stoving it as calamitously as an enraged whale.
- The Essex becomes a stand-in for humanity's relationship with vengeful God and it's too much for the film to handle, especially when it relies so much on the author himself to give it significance. Leave that to Moby-Dick.
- It is mounted as a handsome period piece in period style, except for the modern special effects to make the close-ups of the whale look real. But it is also a bridge to modern thinking and a desperately thrilling adventure story.
- Alternately awesome and wooden.
- Ron Howard's grand maritime adventure has spectacular effects, literary polish and just the right touch of modern-day relevance.
