If the director is the god of a movie (some producers would disagree, I’m sure), then Darren Aronofsky rules over his Noah with a heady mix of cruelty and compassion. A somber and at times grueling epic about nothing less than the worth of all humanity, this is not a quaintly reverent Bible lesson mean to tide us over until we can break our Lenten fast. Aronfosky, who co-wrote the film with his The Fountain collaborator Ari Handel, instead tells a much darker, earthier story—though plenty of fantastical, even miraculous, things do happen during the film’s 140-minute odyssey, Noah is primarily concerned with human folly and obsession. I’m not sure who exactly this often grimly rapturous movie was made for, but I find myself surprisingly glad that it was made.

Aronofsky has created an early Earth that feels, appropriately, utterly primal. The post-Fall landscape is colored in vibrant chiaroscuro, the sky lit up by stars and other cosmic matter even during the daytime, as if the heavens are still close, new and forming. Shot partly in Iceland, Noah oftentimes looks as though it takes place on a different planet. Which, in some ways, it does. Russell Crowe,(Download Noah) meaty and whiskered, plays one of the last descendants of Seth, Cain and Abel’s good-hearted brother whose people were stewards of nature, while Cain’s descendants created all-consuming cities and ravaged the land for all it could yield. It’s no wonder that certain Christian groups have criticized Noah for being environmentalist propaganda. In Aronofsky’s version of this ancient story, God, or the Creator as he’s called, is weary of man’s wickedness toward one another, but mostly he’s upset that they’ve done so many bad things to his beautiful Earth. That’s why he saves the animals and selects only one family of humans to survive, after all.

Or so Noah thinks. Visited by grand visions that are further explored by his grandfather Methuselah (Anthony Hopkins, having a grizzled good time), Noah pretty quickly spirals into what looked to me like a scary case of monomania. And that’s where the film really gets interesting. What if Noah is just some crazy guy leading his family toward oblivion, like Harrison Ford in The Mosquito Coast? Aronofsky skirts around that possibility, which turns Noah from savior to possible madman—a villain,(Download Noah) even. That Noah’s moral and ethical searching tends toward the ambiguous is thrilling. It’s so rare for a big-budget movie like this to mostly avoid asserting moral authority, especially when addressing topics as foundational as this film does. Are humans inherently good? Bad? Otherwise? Do we owe more allegiance to our Creator (whoever that might be) than we do to each other? All of these questions have been pondered on screen many times before, but refreshingly, and a little depressingly, Noah offers up no easy answers.

What some might call a happy ending (“Be fruitful and multiply,” Noah says, while soaring music plays), to me had a troubled air to it, as we know that humans were definitely on their way to multiplying, but just how fruitful have we really been?Noah is, of course, not alone on this existential journey. He’s joined by his wife, Naameh (Jennifer Connelly), and his three sons, Shem (Douglas Booth),(Download Noah) Ham (Logan Lerman), and Japheth (Leo McHugh Carroll). And there’s the young woman they rescued as a child, Ila (Emma Watson), who’s now making quite the pretty item with Shem. Shem is dutiful and in love, Japheth is young and innocent, and Ham is . . . well, Ham is horny. He really wants a wife of his own before the rains and the waves come and he’s doomed to virginity forever, but given the sorry state of the rest of humanity, it doesn’t seem likely that he’ll meet a nice girl. A good deal of the movie’s narrative hinges on this problem, which I couldn’t help but find a little funny, especially with Lerman skulking around with his decidedly modern, vulpine earnestness.

(Download Noah) (Booth, meanwhile, is so absurdly pretty that my audience began to laugh every time he was given a closeup.) Complicating matters is Tubal-cain, the leader of those other fallen men, played by a gruff and growling Ray Winstone.It’s not all humans, though! There are, yes, many, many animals, though they’re given short-shrift here, as Aronofsky is primarily concerned with the problem of humanity.(Download Noah) He does take some time, though, to give life to a group of lumbering, stone-covered fallen angels called the Watchers, who are half rock monster from The NeverEnding Story and half Ent from The Lord of the Rings. We learn their backstory in one of the film’s several artsy flashbacks, though these giants are mostly there to fight off the other humans, when the battle for the ark begins. This scene, as the rain pounds down in sheets and the waves roar in from all sides, is a stunning sequence, all the epicness of the story realized with seat-rumbling grandeur.

(Download Noah) As the ark lurches up into the water and most of humanity is rinsed from the Earth, Noah heaves with the terrible magnificence of this cleansing. The world truly does feel both drowned and reborn.This climax moment, though, comes only a little more than halfway through the film. What follows is a ponderous, but not unsuccessful, look at Noah’s deepening conviction, which mixes dangerously with his anguish over the remembered screams of everyone he left behind,(Download Noah) and by a developing situation on board that threatens to poke some holes in his “The Creator wants all of humanity gone” theory. (Naameh says early in the film that Ila will never be able to bear children, hint hint.) Here’s where Noah runs into some problems, but also where it sours into a fascinating downer. At one point, Noah tells his family the story of creation, giving Aronofsky an excuse to make the most mesmerizing of the film’s cutaway sequences. We watch as the planet burns into being and then, like The Tree of Life on Requiem for a Dream drugs, life speedily blooms and evolves.

We see Cain slaying Abel in silhouette, then those silhouettes become other men, soldiers, clad in various uniforms and gear from throughout the millennia, including today. Oh, I found myself thinking during this strange and arresting sequence. He’s talking about us. This kind of grandiose auteur messaging is maybe a bit heavy-handed and overwrought, but isn’t it also wonderful that a director who was handed a $160 million studio budget had the temerity to aim for something this big,(Download Noah) this sweeping?Sure some of the dialogue tends toward the hammy (or Shemmy), and Connelly’s big scene begging Noah not to follow the harshest of his supposedly divine mandates goes a bit overboard. Maybe some of the film’s magic, like a glowing snakeskin and one character’s mysterious healing powers, doesn’t quite work. And yes, the costumes are awfully well-cut and trendy for vagabonds roaming around pre-history. There are certainly some things about Noah that are misguided, laughable even.

But still, a huge springtime movie, anchored by a thundering and thoroughly compelling Crowe (and a forceful Watson), that deals with this much darkness and thoughtful ambivalence is worthy of hearty praise, in my book. It might not be the Good Book, but I hope it counts for something.Filmmaker Darren Aronofsky specializes in movies about people driven to extremes — by drug addiction (Requiem for a Dream), by the quest for glory (The Wrestler), by madness (Black Swan). In Noah, God Himself is the force driving the hero (Russell Crowe) to build an enormous ark big enough to hold two members of every species of animal on the planet.(Download Noah) Man has grown evil and greedy and lazy and unworthy, and God has decided to reboot, leaving only Noah and his family as survivors. When they die, so will all of humankind, and the innocents will inherit the Earth.This would seem to be odd material for a movie, leaving little room for suspense or ingenuity. The Biblical story of the flood is common to many of the world’s religions in one form or another, and although God doesn’t utter a peep in the film (He communicates with Noah through dreams), the movie could be interpreted as a story of faith as easily as it could be a fairy tale.

Throw in some fallen angels (or Nephilim) that have taken the form of giant rock monsters with an unfortunate resemblance to prehistoric Transformers, and the movie starts to seem more like a summer blockbuster than a Sunday school lesson. The Passion of the Christ, this is not.And yet Aronofsky, who co-wrote the screenplay with Ari Handel and is working on his largest canvas to date, manages to sneak enough difficult questions about following God’s will blindly and the selfish nature of man to give Noah enough heft to go along with the giant spectacle.(Download Noah) As played by Crowe in his kind-brute Gladiator mode, Noah is a man who will not question his Master’s orders, no matter how difficult or illogical they may seem. This doesn’t always sit well with his wife (Jennifer Connelly) or son (Logan Lerman) or their adopted daughter (Emma Watson). But Noah, like most men possessed by what they believe to be right and true, doesn’t think or question: He simply does as he is told. This is expected for the first half of the movie, during the building of the Ark and the amassing of the animals, which are spectacularly created by dazzling CGI.

But Noah’s faith is tested as deeply as Abraham’s in the second half of the movie, when Aronofsky throws some wrinkles into the story that, while not part of any known theology, deepen the film’s exploration of the relationship between God and man and the lengths to which true believers are sometimes forced to go in the name of their deity. Even though everyone knows how the story ends, Noah is unexpectedly exciting and emotional, and Aronofsky, always a great stylist,(Download Noah) constantly does things with the camera that keep the movie visually entrancing (like giving you a point-of-view shot of the first rain drop falling high from the heavens down onto Noah’s face).Will Noah anger some rigid purists and scholars because of the liberties it takes? Perhaps. But the point to take home is the message the movie leaves you with, which works regardless of your faith (or lack thereof). Humans are inherently flawed. How we deal with those defects is what truly matters.In “Taxi Driver,” Robert De Niro said, “Someday a real rain will come and wash all this scum off the streets.” The movie is from 1976, but the impulse to purify a fallen world is as old as Methuselah.

For the heathens who’ve forgotten their Genesis, director Darren Aronofsky has summoned “Noah,” a vivid re-imagining of the biblical flood and its doctrinal currents. Although Aronofsky (“Black Swan”) constructs this vessel with a filmmaker’s toolbox rather than a theologian’s blueprint, a sturdy hull of human spirit enables it to navigate between both worlds.Noah (Russell Crowe at his most quietly monumental), his wife (Jennifer Connelly) and their three sons inhabit a rocky plateau in a post-Eden world that the Creator seems to have forsaken.(Watch Noah Online – High Definition) While Noah lives in harmony with the harsh environment, the descendants of the murderous Cain (led by Ray Winstone) plunder the few resources and feed on the flesh of other creatures.After imbibing sacred herbs with his ancient grandfather Methuselah (Anthony Hopkins), Noah has a vision of a coming deluge and a mandate from the Creator to build an ark. The colossal ship would ferry all the animals of the earth away from the doomed humans.It’s an epic task, but if you believe the Bible, Noah had more than 100 years to complete it; and if you believe this movie, he had help from an army of petrified fallen angels called the Nephilim.

Those walking, talking stacks of stones are awesome embellishments to a familiar story. Aronofsky also adds some psychedelic seasoning to the seven-day recipe for cooking the cosmos, culminating in an evolutionary mash-up that rivals Terrence Malick’s marvelous nature sequences in “The Tree of Life.”Yet ultimately, this “Noah” focuses on people, not plants and animals. While Noah builds the ark,(Without Downloading Watch Movies Online) the covetous outcasts gather for a nearby bacchanal. That’s where Noah’s son Ham (Logan Lerman) meets a misbegotten girl (Madison Davenport) he chooses for his mate, just as brother Shem (Douglas Booth) has coupled with orphan Ila (Emma Watson). But Ila is presumably barren and no threat to Noah’s vision that the humans on the ark should be the end of their sinful species.Aboard the boat, Noah is as tormented as Jesus on the cross, but the cargo is an after-thought. Aronofsky jettisons the close-ups of animals boarding the vessel two-by-two, just as he skimps on seagoing peril.
