I saw this movie (for free). About the only thing it has in common with the biblical story of Noah is that there is a character named Noah that builds a great arc, filled with animals in order to survive a great flood.

In the biblical account, all three of Noah’s son’s had wives. In the movie, only Shem does.

In the biblical account, Methuselah dies when Noah is 5 years old. In the movie Noah is 600 years old when Methuselah dies.

In the biblical account, only Noah’s family and the animals are on the arc. In the movie, Cain is a stowaway on the arc.

In the biblical account God is displeased with Man’s wickedness to his fellow man. In the movie God is displeased with man’s treatment of the Earth.

In the biblical account God says that every moving thing that liveth shall be your meat. In the movie, man shall be only vegetarian.

In the biblical account, God tells Noah and his family to be fruitful and multiply. In the movie, Noah’s ‘vision’ is for Noah’s family to die and for Mankind to not survive.

In the movie, Noah plans to kill his new-born grandchildren (girls) to ensure that Mankind does not survive.

That’s all I can think of off the top of my head. It is definitely *NOT* a biblical movie.

Treating it as solely being due to divine displeasure at poor environmental stewardship is propaganda plain and simple. However, there was an element of this, Creation itself was being corrupted, so it's not completely wrong.

This atheist, liberal, leftist, ‘green’ and enviro-whacko director actually said that he set out to make the LEAST BIBLICAL ‘biblical movie’ EVER!

In other words, he wanted nothing to do with the Bible and the reason for the Flood - in the movie. He wanted ONLY to put in his own WHACKO PROPAGANDA!
