This updating of the Herman Melville story about a mad sea captain obsessed with finding and killing the gigantic white whale that bit off his leg is that rare kind of film that’s so bad, it’s good. Barry Bostwick leaves no piece of scenery unchewed in his manic performance as Cpt. Ahab, a submarine commander with a passion for nothing beyond his hatred of the gigantic mammal, and that’s just as it should be. The only thing more outrageous than his acting are the effects, especially the scene where Moby Dick rises from the ocean to devour an army helicopter in a single bite.
