根据梅尔．维尔的经典文学名著改编,由老牌导演约翰．休斯顿掌舵,加上格利高里．派克将高傲倔强的艾海伯船长塑造得入木三分,使本片成为海上冒险片的经典佳作。故事以一条全身纯白的巨型鲸鱼莫比敌为中心发展,它是一条被水手们视为魔鬼化身的凶猛鲸鱼。艾海伯在捕捉它的过程中被咬掉了一条腿,这种屈辱与伤痛更激发起他一定要打败这条巨鲸的决心,然而也因他这种偏执狂的意志导致很多无辜船员葬身海底的悲剧。本片的海上历险场面拍得相当壮观,在细腻的心理刻画之外也有不错的娱乐效果。ThisclassicstorybyHermanMelvillerevolvesaroundCaptainAhabandhisobsessionwithahugewhale,MobyDick.ThewhalecausedthelossofAhab‘slegyearsbefore,leavingAhabtostomptheboardsofhisshiponapegleg.Ahabissocrazedbyhisdesiretokillthewhale,thatheispreparedtosacrificeeverything,includinghislife,thelivesofhiscrewmembers,andevenhisshiptofindanddestroyhisnemesis,MobyDick.
