When God decides that mankind has become too sinful and must be wiped off the Earth, he chooses Noah (Russell Crowe), a pious man, for a great task. Noah must build an ark large enough to hold his wife (Jennifer Connelly), adopted daughter (Emma Watson), sons (Logan Lerman, Douglas Booth, Leo McHugh Carroll) and their wives -- plus breeding pairs of every animal. When the task is completed, Noah and his family witness God's wrath in the form of an apocalyptic flood.

Critics Consensus

With sweeping visuals grounded by strong performances in service of a timeless tale told on a human scale, Darren Aronofsky's Noah brings the Bible epic into the 21st century.

If and only if the writers had stuck to the real story, this could have been a great depiction of this Biblical character. But no, unnecessary drama had to be inserted. Why, just why?

The Bible once in a true universal and inspiring visionary way. I think the Holy Spirit may like it too.

Contrary to what many critics think, Noah is less a biblical tale and more a reason to pay little-known actors just to keep them in Hollywood. Like El Arca, Hollywood takes a story and twists it around to what they wanted to happen as opposed to what ACTUALLY happened.

Couldn't finish the movie. So much potential with such a great event in history but Hollywood fails again.

Visually great to look at. It holds your attention was never board. The acting was great. It does seem to take some liberties with the classic story but then it is a directors vision The story is unbelievable and defies any logic but then that is the original story so treat it like any other fantasy movie and suspend believe or if you are inclined up hold your belief and just go with it.

Rather bland. It drags on for a bit too long and the whole theme was underwhelming. I expected more from such a big cast. CG was at times distracting. Definitely one to skip without worry.

Perhaps one of the Ten Commandments should be "Thou shalt not make an Old Testament epic".

The CGI animals are spectacular, the battles less so and, though none of it really makes sense, neither, some might argue, does the Bible.

Rated: 2/5

It's as odd and schizophrenic a picture as you're likely to see in the focus-grouped, play-it-safe moviemaking climate of the moment, and the fact that it exists at all is sort of a (ha ha) miracle.

Nick Rogers

Midwest Film Journal

The film questions a creator’s obligations at earthly and spiritual levels, with complications that concern masculine privilege to color the margins. "Noah" doesn’t preach to the choir. It dares the choir to keep up amid minor chords & melodic inversion.

Rated: 4/5

As an exercise in retelling the story, it'll draw more laughs and grunts of incomprehension than actual admiration. Still, Noah is a brave film – and that's always worth appreciating.

Ancient mythology and modern cosmology come together in the story of Genesis, told in Noah’s own words and illustrated with imagery reminiscent of Cosmos, a wedding of science and religion in a way respectful of both.
