Rating: 2.5/4 --
Joshua Zeman's doc about an enigmatic solo cetacean has a bold premise but becomes too much about the filmmaker's Ahab-esque quest rather than its amazingly elusive subject.

The enthusiasm and unflappability of the crew are engaging, even when the film feels a bit at sea.

Hollywood Reporter
Rating: 2/4 --
While the dive into the history of the whaling industry is a welcome departure, Zeman's insistence of inserting himself in the action is intrusive and distracting.

[A]s it wends toward that conclusion, The Loneliest Whale is both invigorating and calming to watch.

Rating: 4/5 --
A fascinating tale about a undiscovered, single beast that emitted a sound, one that other whales did not comprehend. No one has ever answered his call....

The director and his human subjects make a case for how our knowledge of the undersea mammals' behavior has altered some of our destructive practices for the better.

Did you know that a whale can sing and had a hit called 'Songs of The Humpback' which sold more than 125k? Yup, The Loneliest Whale breaks it all the way down!

Product Description:
Director Joshua Zeman's documentary follows the quest to locate the iconic 52 Hertz Whale. Due to its unique and singular sonic signature (calling out at 52 Hz, a frequency that other whales cannot hear), scientists and the general public believe it has spent its entire life in solitude. This scientific endeavor has particular resonance in a time when humanity grapples with chronic isolation and loneliness.
