Noah's Ark: It's Not About Kindness

Although it is based on the classic stories in the Bible, the director does not seem to be satisfied with simply interpreting the original teachings, injecting new ideological connotations into the story, achieving a struggle between human nature and faith and becoming the difference between the film and the biblical story. point! The movie not only tells the whole story of Noah's Ark, but also expresses the director's trade-off between faith and humanity in the name of biblical stories! The film has already departed from the Bouyishi Road that promotes religion, but instead focuses on showing the greed of human beings and the ruthlessness of faith, and explores the real destruction and new life by depicting two extreme behaviors! The so-called destruction of the old world and the establishment of a new world is only a kind of sustenance for one-sided beauty. The real source is the unsympathetic thinking and excessive greed of survival motives in people's hearts! There is no so-called truth, goodness and beauty that people want in the movie. What exists is only survival in exchange for killing! We can't say that Noah in the movie is a good guy, because a good guy won't kill anyone, and he won't die! Noah in the movie is just a desperate guardian to protect the family, and the so-called prophet is just a tool that obeys orders and blindly obeys God's instructions!

The movie has recreated a biblical story of the end times for us. It is no longer simply telling us about this great task arranged by God, but a true reflection of people's struggles and struggles in the end times environment! Noah is no longer the embodiment of justice, but more of a guardian who obeys God's destiny! From the movie, we can deeply feel the greed and nature of human beings, face the feelings and criticize the reason why God wants to destroy human beings! The world can no longer afford the wanton destruction and greed of mankind, nor can it save the insatiable heart of mankind! Since it is difficult to save the sinful nature of human beings, it is better to destroy all human beings! We can see the original intention of the director's very deliberate arrangement, and understand that the film is not just a simple storytelling. The director seems to have too much helplessness for such an arrangement like a god. The portrayal of nature is fully exposed! The film criticizes the unscrupulous venting of sins by human beings, and also criticizes blind faith and obedience to religion, which makes them ruthless and without warmth at all! The director discussed the ugliness of human nature with two extreme thoughts in the depths of the soul from two aspects, and also warned us to respect and love nature and the world! Director Darren Aronofsky wants to give the ancient biblical story of Noah's Ark a profound realistic meaning, and at the same time exudes a harmonious and natural humanistic thought for us! I have to say that the topic of this movie is too heavy and depressing, so that the movie has a profound thought of redemption and redemption! It allows us to constantly reflect, and then constantly change and redeem our sins! Oscar-winning actor Russell Crowe played a prophet Noah who was struggling to choose between warmth and faith for us, and also made this character become irrelevant to kindness. The setting of the movie does not seem to contain the theme of kindness. Because Noah is burdened with a sin that destroys all the same kind! The movie tells us a story of redemption in the last days, in which there are only ruthless struggles and struggles to survive, whether there is God's guidance or not, everything has nothing to do with kindness!

There are too many extreme descriptions of religion in the movie, and it also violates the teachings of Islam. It has a moral and implication to slander God and prophets, and it is difficult for many believers to accept! Moreover, many religious concepts are too extreme and cruel, there are disputes and doubts in many religions, and they also have too negative effects and smears on religious beliefs! But on the whole, the movie got rid of the biblical stories in the traditional sense and became an independent movie with unique ideas and connotations, so that the movie no longer seems too traditional and religious!

The special effects of the movie can be described as magnificent and magnificent. Whether it is drifting at sea or flooding the world, there is an indescribable admiration and surprise! Whether it is the doomsday scene or the handling of the emotional changes of the characters, it is very real and skillful! The director has a very thorough grasp of the deepest level of human nature! It's just that the overall feeling of the movie is a bit too negative and too depressing, especially after Russell Crowe's interpretation, it always makes people feel like a shadow is cast in their hearts! However, the star lineup of the movie is very strong, and the stars are joining, and the stars are bright! Russell Crowe, Antonio Hopkins, Jennifer Connelly, Emma Watson and the British old drama bone Ray Winston all have good performances! And the opponent's play is very eye-catching, and the acting is so explosive! This is a very thoughtful film. If you want to explore the profound thoughts of the director, it is worth watching!

    The biggest surprise of the year. Incredible film that accomplishes the impossible. The second half, which opens with Genesis, is presented in the form of storytelling. The end said to fear HIM, love the people, and showed the power of pardon. Iceland made the film's temperament.
