I just saw Noah. The film is a remarkable display of
special effects. It is also one of the funniest comedies I have seen in a very
long time. Aronofsky deserves a great deal of praise for turning a serious
subject into a non-stop laugh fest of techno-electro music, orchestral scores,
blasting special effects, and even rock monsters.
The ad campaign tried to ease Christians' nerves that all would be well, artistic license was taken, but the movie would be faithful to the story.

Cain's descendent, soon to be King Cain, takes the snake skin unaware of its magical properties……To Read More….
