I watched this movie, and learnt that Noah was a bit of a dick.
As a retelling of the biblical story of Noah and the Ark... it's a joke and has about as much grounding in reality as the original biblical story itself. So I guess that should make it accurate in bizarro world. :)
The performances were weak, Crowe did his usual bland and dull acting job, Emma Watson wasn't very good at all either. The only decent performances in the entire cast came from Ray Winstone and Jennifer Connelly. Aside from Anthony Hopkins, whose part was so small that it's hard to give an overall comment on his performance... I guess adequate would suffice... the rest of the cast are pretty much unknown to me and as such I have no previous body of work to call upon in comparison.
The visual effects were weak, the creature design laughingly bad and the direction and photography rather poor... When rounded up with poor dialogue and one dimensional character portrayal... It's pretty much a disaster of a movie... but not in the sense of it actually being a movie about a disaster.
Don't waste your money buying or renting it... and I hope you didn't pay to see it at the movies...
In short... save yourself from wasting a few hours of your life and do something more interesting with instead... Like watching paint dry for 138 mins.
