I have just returned from seeing the controversial film Noah. I decided to see the film because reviews were claiming the film was a brilliant Biblical adaptation worthy of Cecile B. DeMill's "The Ten Commandments," and other reviews said it was Luciferianism mysticism and a horribly tainted retelling of the Flood.
I can unequivocally confirm that this film is steeped in Luciferianism (Satanic-devil worship) and many other pagan and anti-Christian beliefs.
The Negatives:
Let me begin at the beginning. Noah and his father are on a plain near some rocks when Noah's father pulls out a snake skin and wraps it around his arm to give Noah the "Adam blessing". Later we discover this blessing skin that glows is Satan's serpentine skin from when he tempted Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden (this is shown, not inferred)! How can the Sons of Seth, who were righteous before God practice a mysticism using the devil's likeness?! At first I thought it might be an allusion to the serpent raised on the rod in Exodus when Moses and Hebrews were in Wilderness. But there is no mention that this skin is the sign of sin and our great fall; it instead takes the place of a prayer shawl and when it glows it goes to the tip of the finger and is suppose to touch the forehead of a child!
The next major liberty (lie) that Director Aronnofsky takes is The Watchers, also known as fallen angels in the film. These fallen angels help Noah build the Ark and fight the wicked vikingesque people lead by Tubal-cain. These Watchers say they came to help Adam but were punished for disobeying God by being turned into rock creatures with eight arms. These fallen-angel -rock-giants are depicted as endearing creatures like the Ents in Middle Earth. Audience members are made to pity these fallen angels. The truth that these Watchers-Fallen Angels are the "sons of God" who rebelled against God and had sex with women and created the Nephilim (giants) is completely left out of the story! (Genesis 6:2, Genesis 6:4). After these rock watchers defend the Ark they get to be pardoned by The Crestor and return to Heaven. It says in Divine Scripture, "the demons and fallen angels are already judged and cannot be forgiven." It is obvious that the intent is to make people feel sorry for the serpents (angels) who fell and sympathize with them instead of obedient good angels like Michael or Uriel (which are not featured in the film).
Another major fabrication for the film takes place after The Flood. Noah goes mad and decides to kill mankind altogether and leave the newly purged and purified world to the animals. Noah decides if Shem's wife has girls, he will murder them. You become more afraid of Noah and his new disposition to destroy man than the villain Kabal-cain. The Bible never mentions this incident and the entire episode of Noah's madness is attributed to be the Creator's Will.
If the paganism, Satanism, and other isms weren't enough, there is also a New Age message coupled with Environmentalism. Noah tells his wife and children that God is going to destroy the world because they did not take care of he planet, which is "fragile." This is not the reason God flooded the Earth. God poured out his wrath because man had become so savage, wicked, and was committing such abominations as having sex with angels that God had to wipe most of mankind out. These people were not just bad carbon folk who forgot to buy eco-friendly dishwashers; they practiced beastology, human sacrifice, angelic sexual relations, and etc. etc. They were monsters, and Noah and his family were the only people left who feared (revered) God and lived righteously (not perfectly, there is a difference).
Frankly, I think this film was trying to fit every other religion, philosophy, and anti-Christ message it could. The film dances between confirming there is a Creator; but that he is cruel, and that there is no Creator and no purpose (nihilism) and humanism; that man's will is what matters not God's. These dichotomies fight for the attention and leave the viewer bewildered.

"Noah" creates in the audience a hatred and anger towards God for being merciless (which is inaccurate because "God so loved the world, he gave his only son. (John 3:16)" We just saw how loving God is in "Son of God" and now Director Aronofsky has made a film that depicts a silent, aloof, and cruel God. I understand now the outcry of fundementalist Christians and why most believers say to avoid this film like the Black Plague. It is a wretched telling of Noah without hardly any redeeming qualities. You are made to sympathize with the wicked, feel sorry for the fallen angels (who really wage war against us in the spirit realm and have sought worship since the fall), taught to practice pagan rites like tea fortune telling, and to bless believers with Satan's skin! This film is an abomination! Jews, Chrisifians, and Muslims have every right to be offended. If all three monotheistic faiths abandon this film, it will suffer and suffer it should! This film will not draw unbelievers to the One True God; nay It will make them hate God and sympathize and serve Satan! For the believer it will make them feel disgusted and defiled!
The Positives:
The only positive I could gleam from this horrid film is that man can easily fall into a religious state where he cannot hear God correctly and decide to do things that are against God's character. At the end Noah comes to his senses and goes back to his wife and there is touching moment when she embraces him after his madness is gone. We frail humans can easily be deceived by the devil into doing acts that make God and ourselves look heartless. This is a good warning to us believers to be vigilant and to make sure that love, the love that only comes from Christ motivates us.
Verdict:
I recommend that almost everyone avoid this film. It depicts God as an ogre with wrath as his only emotion and it shows major paganism and Satanism as positives. I would only advise a devout Christian who knows there Bible and is not effected by films full of deceptions and lies see this film so that they may verify what I have said. When I read the review of "Noah" on Christian Spotlight, I thought they were just being overly antagonistic, but now I know that this "Noah" is not anything like the Bible Story that shows God's Justice and His Mercy.
To put it succinctly, NOAH: Nihilism Occultism Atheism Hedonism. Avoid this "Noah," save your money, and go see "Son of God" again.
