‘NOAH’ ng Hollywood ibang-iba ang kuwento sa Bible; para kang nanood ng ‘TRANSFORMERS’

“NOAH” was so post apocalyptic and so different from the Bible we grew up learning. Early this year, there is a spate of biblical movies from Hollywood that really excited us starting with “Heaven is For Real”.

We even bought the book before watching the movie and the second movie we wanted to watch was “Noah”. “Noah” is big, over a hundred million dollars in box-office gross with at least three Oscar winners – Russell Crowe (2000 Best Actor for Gladiator), Jennifer Connelly (2002 Best Supporting Actress for A Beautiful Mind) and Anthony Hopkins (1992 Best Actor for Silence of the Lamb) plus three of the most promising young stars right now, Emma Watson of the “Harry Potter” series, Logan Lerman of the “Percy Jackson” series and Douglas Booth of the newest “Romeo And Juliet”.

Kaso with the combination of our health falling and no so much promotion, we didn’t even know it opened last month so we failed to watch it in the big screen.

Since we promised ourselves not to buy fake copies or pirated version, there is a good and legal way na to watch movies you missed bukod sa original DVD copies and with “Noah” we got it differently.

Noah (Russell) and Naameh (Jennifer) have three sons, Ham (Logan), Shem (Douglas) and Japeth (Leo McHugh Caroll). One day, Noah had a vision about the death of earth not but fire but by water so he consulted his grandfather Methuselah (Anthony) who advised him to build an arc.

With the help of the Watchers, they were able to finish the arc as all the animals start arriving. But Tubal-Cain (Ray Winstone) is not happy about it so he and his thousands of followers intend to destroy the arc before it rains.

Then it rained. The concept is there. Sino ba naman ang hindi nakakaalam ng Noah’s Arc? Kaso, nanibago kami sa presentation. It is so post-apocalyptic like it happened right after the end of the world and not the beginning of history that Noah and family are wearing maong.

Now, we cannot question that dahil who is correct costumes during the time so we let go at that. The look is confusing too and so is the story telling. Sometimes we see things that sort of justify one favorite shows we regularly watch sa History Channel, ang Ancient Aliens.

Sa dinaanan nina Noah on his way to Methuselah, we swear it’s so out of this world and so ancient aliens. Again, we let go at that dahil we like the series nga and showing this scene sort of justifying the theory.

Ang pinakaayaw namin, how the Watchers look. We wanted to present a story in Hollywood TV about the Watchers dahil very interested and fascinated kami about them. To make it short, God sent 200 Seraphim on earth to take care of men.

Sila actually ang guardian angels natin. Ang dinadasalan nating guardian angels, mga Watchers. They are always 200.
If they did something against what is told to them like falling in love with a human, they will be just be recalled to heaven at papalitan ng another Seraphim so imagine how beautiful they look.

For the record, Lucifer was a Watcher but he did something very bad by launching war against God kaya siya pinarusahan.
Sa “Noah”, hindi namin alam what the stone creatures are when they were shown at the start at nagulat kami nang todo when they explain that they are the Watchers.

Too many difference and changes we tell you and we don’t like it. That “Noah” is almost bad he wanted to kill Ilah (Emma’s) twin girls to Shem is bad enough but to present Watchers like it, it’s like watching a stone age and prehistoric “Transformers” and take note they look like Transformers at a certain point of the movie.

“Noah” and “Heaven is For Real” is about to be released sa DVD. We recommend to buy “Heaven is For Real” and passed on “Noah”. If you still want to watch it, go watch it but don’t spend money just like we did just to update us.

Nabahala kami sa sobrang dami ng changes in the story parang ang naging consistent lang ay ang baha.
