Editorial Reviews

Another big-budget monster movie from producer Dino de Laurentiis, Orca concerns the mutual revenge pact between an obsessive whaler (Richard Harris) and an angry killer whale, whose pregnant mate Harris killed. The whale strikes back by biting off Bo Derek's leg, so Harris and concerned biologist Charlotte Rampling follow it to frozen northern waters for the climactic showdown. Just in case you like Jaws better than Moby Dick, there's a killer shark thrown in for good measure. Ponderous, pretentious, and dull, this opportunistic disaster fittingly sank at the box office. Robert Firsching, All Movie Guide

October 10, 2002: From the very first scene you can note the scent of this movie: orcas are very smart. This is a movie that involves you in the pain of an orca, that have lossed his family. The special effects are OK. I mean much, much better than Jaws.
