It's not the Biblical story of Noah and the Ark. Instead, it's being made into an environmental/global warming/apocalypse type feature that has nothing to do with the biblical account. Apparently the director has a comic book, "Noe" that is being used as the basis. In it, the earth is a dry desert wasteland. Noah is a mage and shaman who has dreams of a coming flood. He fights 18ft tall, 6-armed fallen angels. Wrestles with killing his kins' twin babies. God is a, mean, angry being with no compassion.
Sounds like typical, modern hollywood garbage. They're hoping the name will cause christians to flock to the movie. If the early script reviews are correct, I hope it's a flop.
