Moviegoers are saying
This German animated underwater adventure about whale songs and marine mysticism has divided audiences with its bizarre tonal shifts, inconsistent animation quality, and surprisingly dark themes for a family film. While some viewers found unexpected depth in its environmental messaging and psychedelic ocean sequences, many were put off by confusing plotlines, unpleasant whale songs, and disturbing imagery that left children scared and parents bewildered.

    Vorsichtige Brainrot-Empfehlung! Im Micro-Genre des Fisch-Animationsfilms etwas über „Finding Jesus“, weil perverser und düsterer. Tod, Unheil, auf der Suche nach dem Jenseits die ganze Zeit fast ersticken & als Wal selbstbestimmt ans Land legen zur selbstgeisselnden…

    2:30 pm The Last Whale Singer. Starring Juice Box from Sausage Party, the father of the main character in Cyberbully, and Angry Woman from Scream 6. Honestly I’ve warmed up a bit to this movie since watching it. Could’ve been much worse. Could’ve also been way way better.
