There's really only one major release this weekend, 'In the Heart of the Sea' and Movie Mom say...it misses the mark.

 

'In the Heart of the Sea' is based on true events that inspired the classic Moby Dick. Movie Mom loves Moby Dick, but thought the story in this was super weak and dragged on and on.

It is directed by Ron Howard (Rush, A Beautiful Mind, Apollo 13) but this is a super disappointment. Chris Hemsworth stars and is great, the special effects are amazing - but the story is just...eh.

Movie Mom suggests you catch up on movies you've missed and get all your Christmas shopping done so you are ready for 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens' and 'Sisters' with Tina Fey and Amy Poehler. Get this...it's based on a TRUE STORY!  Wha? That's crazy!
