==Reception==
Peter Howell of the ''Toronto Star'' said the film "plunges us into the sights and sounds of this visceral business", using "()iny waterproof cameras that could be clipped or rested upon people, fish or objects…to capture the film’s raw images and natural sounds. Edited together into a non-linear and virtually wordless whole, it creates a briny immersive effect that is almost hallucinatory."〔Peter Howell, ("Leviathan a fish-eye view aboard a commercial trawler: review" ), ''Toronto Star'', March 14, 2013.〕 A. O. Scott of ''The New York Times'' noted that the film "conveys the brutal toll that the enterprise takes on the workers and on the ocean, and it could even be read as an environmental parable in which the sea threatens to exact its revenge on humanity. But none of this is explicit in the film, which avoids exposition and context, unfolds almost entirely in the dark and often verges on hallucinatory abstraction. Where most documentaries prize clarity, this one attests to the power of estrangement."〔A. O. Scott, ("The Merger of Academia and Art House: Harvard Filmmakers’ Messy World" ), ''The New York Times'', August 31, 2012.〕 Melissa Anderson of ''The Village Voice'' opined that "()he density of aural and visual stimuli overwhelms—and liberates."〔Melissa Anderson, ("Steel Yourself for Leviathan, A Watery Knockout" ), ''The Village Voice'', February 27, 2013.〕 NPR critic Stephanie Zacharek was less complimentary, calling the film "a self-conscious tone poem concocted from oblique camera angles, shots held longer than it takes a tadpole to reach maturity and nighttime images enhanced with a psychedelic glow. An alternate title for it might be David Lynch, Gone Fishin'."〔Stephanie Zacharek, ("'Leviathan': Of Fish And Men, Without Chats" ), National Public Radio, February 28, 2013.〕
The film won the Michael Powell award for best British feature at the Edinburgh International Film Festival as well as the Experimental/Independent Film/Video Award at the 2012 Los Angeles Film Critics Association Awards. It was presented within Maryland Film Festival 2013 as a favorite film of Baltimore-based filmmaker Matthew Porterfield.
