Bro the eyes of the whale said it all to him : how it feels to lose your friends and family one by one. To live each day in fear that one day it might be my turn

[franklesher]

When a human and a whale make contact through their eyes, it has to be the most unique and extraordinary experience.

[huntercool]

I think we can all agree Moby was really the one showing mercy in this scene

[rodkani]

eye contact is one of the most primal things on earth

[akaristrife]

“This wasn’t a vicious beast. But an intelligent, gentle creature. Whose soul, reflected my own.”

Valka,
How To Train Your Dragon 2

[samosullivan]

This is such an underrated film! This scene in particular is heartbreakingly beautiful.
Perfectly captures Herman Melville’s original message (and warning) of mankind.

[pedrosantos]

When they fought the whale fought back.
When they showed it mercy the whale showed them mercy.

[automotives]

This is one of the very few movies that had me in tears. Excellent cast.

[huntercool]

If Owen had thrown that spear, Moby would’ve instantly killed them all.

But by not throwing it, Moby let them leave.

*Owen saved his entire crew by showing mercy and passing Moby’s test.*

[rebelruezy]

Are we not going to appreciate Chris Hemsworth amazing acting here

[misaelrey]

This scene is much more intense then it seems. It's very clear that Owen and the whale had the most important thing in common, both are survivors, loosing various things just to try to live another day. In 20 seconds they made the movie for me.

[jeremy.perlinski]

I love that scene. Eye to eye is one of the most beautiful things that can be powerful. Looking deep into another animals eyes is like looking into the eye of a innocent creature. Some animals doesn’t like if you stare at them. Like when you stare at a horse’s eye it is breathtaking.

[doddthedodo]

“Very well, Hunter. A mercy for a mercy.”

[bryanbartlett]

He was just defending his people. Its all about respect

[norpriest]

This is like the scene in Kong vs Godzilla where Kong decided not to continue the fight and Godzilla left after that.

[leonardohenrique]

That whale had so many scars, I imagine a lot of people tried to kill it before 😔

[miio_]

no matter how much he attacked and killed, he’s still an animal with emotions, who has a life as sensitive as ours

[stefanomasci]

The whale had already destroyed their ship and 3 boats. So this spear wouldn't solve much of anything. In fact the whale who took pity on them.

[siddhantsinghakumar]

This is one of the best movies I have ever watched. This particular scene left me in tears.

[ArmorDoge]

By the way, this scene I think people may kind of misunderstand. It was the whale who was showing mercy.
