Noah
review by
ANIZ FILMVALA
*****
Directed by Darren Aronofsky is a massive cinematic vision to
rejuvenate the Bible tale of ‘NOAH’ which will be a benchmark to the history of
mythological epic.
The story said million years ago Adam and Eve blundered into
a crunch which created a disorder of good and evil [canine and Seth their two
sons] and the good soul of the generation Noah. As the story unfolds how Noah is
only one sacred to execute the god will to create an Ark and save his family
and pair of animals and other creature of planet from the catastrophe which
will clean the bad energy from the earth for a new formation of humankind.
Anthony Hopkins as Methuselah is his mentor to guide him in
this process of shielding his family [Jennifer Connelly as Naameh Noah's wife]
and loved ones. Hence he is supported by a group of giants called Watchers and
their leader Nick Nolte as Samyaza to build the massive Ark. Ray Winstone as
Tubal-cain Noah's archenemy attacks them to obliterate the Ark.
As the battle between them is set, Noah is the only person
to fight between good and evil saving his family from the bad force lastly they
reach to Ararat Island.
Russell Crowe as Noah has delivered yet again a performance
of unmatched excellence to date, also Emma Watson as Ila his daughter is on her
way to garner all the accolades.
Full of visually mesmerizing frames which will transport you
through hell and heaven of the biblical period. The movie will capture your
senses for a while drifting you in a gloomy mood. A must watch for God sake.
