Movie Review from Hell: "Noah"
Without a hint of sarcasm I must state for the record that I preferred the book. And, of course, the book was not known as a real page-turner.
Was this movie true to the original myth? Well, let's see: there was a man chosen by God, his family, a big boat, a flood, and a lot of dead people. But this is where all similarities end. Insert magic, new characters, odd story lines, and a bizarre race of igneous Transformers and it is no wonder that is was panned by the religious community. But it also included an out-of-place nod to evolution (which I appreciated) but it was not enough to save this waterlogged movie.
It was sorta like starting with the biblical story of the "Ten Commandments" and ending up with "Terminator II."
I could go on but I have already wasted too much of my evening on this fiasco. Perhaps I will cap off the day by having my abdomen biopsied.
