The tiny island is the capital of the American whaling industry, where sailors, traders and harpooners seek their fortunes. Three of them – Ishmael (Charlie Cox), Pip (Daniel Gordon), and Queequeg (Raoul Trujillo) – become crewmembers of the Pequod, and their journey with the charismatic but tyrannical Captain Ahab (William Hurt) begins.
A veteran whale hunter who lost his leg to the gigantic Moby Dick, Ahab is obsessed with revenge. But his long-suffering wife (Gillian Anderson) and crew know little about his plans. Only his first mate, Starbuck (Ethan Hawke), senses the dangers ahead.
Ishmael in particular is hypnotized by Ahab, ignoring the warnings of Queequeg and Starbuck. But when the crew is crippled by hunger and thirst across the Atlantic, they all see the effects of his bitterness. Ahab wants Moby Dick. And when he kills one of the white whale’s companions, the apocalyptic struggle between man and animal begins.
A classic of American literature, Herman Melville's Moby Dick is dramatically reimagined on screen in an epic tale of adventure, vengeance and obsession.

Saving Pip the slave from getting a beating was a nice way to start and the way Queequeg the tattooed man proved himself was amusing but getting into the small boats to go after the whales was a little crazy, Pip was lucky they cut the rope and being towed by the whale looked like fun until Moby Dick turned up Author: codebreaker Time: 8-14-2011 13:52 Subject: 1x02 Part 2
Queequeg thinking he was dying because there was no wind was a little strange and some of the things the captain did was amusing but going back into the small boats after what happened last time was stupid Author: bala Time: 8-17-2011 06:26 Subject: Reply 3#3 codebreaker's post
Well yeah that was a nice way to start but i have say it took a while to get going but that Moby whale was impressive.
