Thanks for sharing another viewpoint, Michael! I agree with you that it was creative, and I also agree that it was &lt;em&gt;a representation&lt;/em&gt; of a very old tale - but it was a representation I didn&#039;t like at all. My opinion does not come from a biblical standpoint (I&#039;m far from a biblical scholar, not even close!), but a combination of story-telling taste and in my opinion, an unappealing and unnecessary visual license taken by combining cheap-looking science-fiction elements with an otherwise &quot;epic&quot; backdrop. That there may have been giants back then, I have no problem believing. That they were considered fallen angels, I get. That Noah may have gone a bit mad is also in the realm of possibility. But how it all came together in this film was, for me, disturbing both artistically and intellectually. It didn&#039;t tie together well. I expected strife, conflict, intensity, even perhaps a sense of supernatural, but not whatever oddity this was, good acting aside!... But that all said, I really do appreciate your thoughts. They added some balance here!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Something that most people didn&#039;t notice because they probably had no knowledge of this, was that the film is not made entirely according to the Bible. It is made according to The Book of Enoch which most of you probably didn&#039;t read. The movie was a great representation of the tale, and I am very disappointed every time man remains stiff when it comes to creativity. The whole mud-like-fallen-angels was a combination of tales of angels that strayed from God&#039;s word and came down to earth, being punished by having their wings cut out. Along the history many people stressed that they were the giants that lived on earth. The movie really took into account every story that could have been part of the legend and in this sense it was epic.

But you are right with one thing,you should be better informed about what the director intended to do and not what the world expected to see. The movie was very creative, and it is very hard to get and swallow. But people are accepting harder and harder other points of view. Plus, the actors really played well.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Can&#039;t think why anyone would have financed this disastrous disaster film.  I am only a bit encouraged that the movie might point people back to the Bible to check out its version of this ultimate end of time tale.  Love the fact that the animals were considered innocent and that the author of this tale and God knew that they were as important if not more important as man to continue the revival of this our magnificent world.  The movie had great potential but failed in every way to use it to entertain.  Someone had a magic mushroom trip that turned very ugly.  Too bad the audience is the only one to suffer the consequences.  Anxious to read others critiques.]]></description>
