Russell Crowe as "Noah"

I saw this yesterday and enjoyed parts of it. Some parts I was skeptical about.

 

There's an existing thread

 

There WAS a thread.

I've avoided going to see it. Just not a fan of Biblical re-imaginings.

 

I must have searched wrong. Naoh?

 

I think two Noah threads have been closed.

 

Ah, I guess I'm not surprised the thread(s) got closed. . .

 

Some examples...similarities between Darren Aronofsky's Noah & The Fountain >>>

The other similarity--they are both fantasy. It was entertainin.

 

Washed away?

 

No Ah good ?

 

Wish they'd worked the Cosby bit in

 

I wanted to see it in initial release but missed it. Watched it a couple weeks ago at home. I found it thought-provoking, not your standard sword and sandals epic, had a 'sci-fi' quality to it, the imagery of the animals coming to the ark was wonderful. My wife thought it was a little hokey, but a few days later agreed she was still thinking about it, so it did something- most empty movies go out of my head pretty quickly. I like the director's work generally, though, even when his films, like the Fountain, miss the mark. He's ambitious.

 

It acts as an interesting allegory for our world today as well.

 

I enjoyed it.

 

Riiiight!

 

he was fine, but the movie was not...

 

and extremely annoying...

 

How long...can you tread water?

 

Watched it last night....terrible

 

Aronofsky is a hack.

 

What's a cubit ?

 

I thought it was decent. Interesting take on the Noah parable.

 

What Australians call this guy?

 

I liked this a lot more than I thought I would. I hated hated hated "Black Swan" and expected more arty-farty nonsense this time but found "Noah" to be fairly straightforward and involving...

 

Riiiiiight!!
