It read: “The film Noah is director Darren Aronofsky’s version of the story of Noah. Though artistic licence has been taken, we believe the film to be true to the values and integrity of the biblical story.”.
Malaysia and Indonesia have banned the screening of Noah. Given such controversies, what does the notice intend to achieve? I proffer that it will precipitate the divide between the money- making motive and religious conviction.
Worse, it may be perceived by many as an intention to taint the minds of those who are unaware of the historical context and divine purpose of the flood as told in the Bible. This assaults the very tenet of respect for and practice of religious freedom enshrined in Singapore’s constitution. Is it wrong to make movies only for profit? Not really, insofar as they do not show disrespect and distort the sacredness of any religious belief or racial norm.
I beseech GV to immediately remove such a misguided notice from all the screening venues of Noah.(Pastor Les and Adeline Chia): The Noah film is another example of the postmodern spirit at work. The film claims to tell the biblical story of the Flood but disappointingly, it does not stay true to the biblical narrative.
Instead both the script writers and the director take excessive artistic license and reframe the story. The final product is a gross distortion of the original biblical account. We understand from the bible that Noah was a righteous man, blameless among his people and he walked with God (Genesis 6: 9).
God Himself has singled out Noah as one of the three most righteous men apart from Job and Daniel (Ezekiel 1. But the film gives Noah a dark twist. It portrays him as a complicated, uncaring and evil person. God is portrayed as evil and unmerciful. Noah was led to believe that God intended to eliminate humans altogether.
So, in obedience to God, he tried to kill his granddaughters but failed. And he sort of apologised to his Creator, “I can’t. I am sorry.” Noah was just too compassionate to carry out God’s cruel plan. He was more loving than God. I watched the film and found it surprisingly entertaining, especially for a non- believer. Aronofsky’s previous work include Black Swan and Requiem for a Dream, and anyone familiar with his narrative and visual style will walk into the theatre expecting something radically different from what we’d imagine from the Bible. Yes, it’s a distortion of the gospel .
If you were to make a film about the Bible literally word for word, it’d probably bore people, Christians included, to death. You’d have people nitpicking on the colour of Moses’ skin, the number of lashes on Jesus’ back and the type of wood that Noah used to construct his vessel. Aronosky, incidentally, is a Jew, and had consulted texts from the Dead Sea Scrolls for the plot. It appears that what the above writers are disappointed about is not so much about how certain characters in the movie resemble fantasy beasts from LOTR (no spoilers, I swear), but how one of the most famous prophets in the Bible has been portrayed more like, well, a flawed HUMAN BEING.
In the film we see a stoic, violent, fatherly, drunk, fat Noah played by Russell Crowe, a chosen one devoid of any humour whatsoever that all other plot devices (Methuselah, evil villain, snakes, sex in the forest) around him had to make up for his stony conviction and austerity. If Noah were evil, and his God were equally evil, then it only makes sense since God . If you wanted a biblical superhero, go watch Son of God. In the film, the Creator comes across as merciless, stubborn and vengeful, and the ROA pastors were upset that Noah was above all His genocidal tendencies.
Well, what’s new here? Isn’t this the same God who annihilated Sodom and Gomorrah? The same God who commanded one to go ? One moment He appoints you to shepherd everything that . Are Christians saying that it’s OK if Noah is played for laughs, but unacceptable if it’s supposed to be a serious movie? The writers stop short of calling for Noah’s ban entirely, though ROA concluded by urging their followers to educate the masses on what really happened in the build up to the Ark. MUIS also acknowledged that there were .
Isn’t this, then, what ? Would you rather have the general viewer watch a pedantic, preachy deluge of a movie that’s the cinematic equivalent of stuffing a Bible down your throat?
From the perspective of the movie industry, Noah is a resounding success, and it’ll take some convincing of the Christian community that Noah, as compared to more overtly religious films like Passion and Son of God, is more likely to pique the interest of non- believers, atheists even, to read up on Genesis than any other . If there’s one statement that I agree with the ROA pastors, it’s this: In conclusion, I think that the Noah film is a great opportunity to engage people that would not otherwise want to talk about God.
