New Trailer And Early Reviews From Darren Aronofsky’s Noah

Director Darren Aronofsky’s biblical epic Noah had its World premiere last night in Mexico, which means that the first reviews and reactions of the full movie are beginning to come out, and unsurprisingly and at the same time surprisingly, most point out that one of the eye catchers of the film, the fantastical elements, have been left out from the trailers, clips, etc.. I say unsurprisingly because we all knew there weren’t any big eye catching moments on the trailers but surprisingly because the marketing departments usually go for those scenes when promoting the film.

The overall reaction to the film was positive, but many seem to agree that due to the religious nature of the project it is going to be polarizing. In addition Paramount released a new trailer.

Here are some of the reactions:

Peter Sciretta – /Film

.@DarrenAronofsky‘s Noah is a much different film than whats being advertised. Biblical epic meets fantasy, with a philosophical core.

Noah has a pro-science pro-faith tone, but for the most part, I don’t know why religious viewers would have issues with the adaptation.

Noah is a divisive film (not from a religious perspective), akin to The Fountain, will have its fans & haters. Im in the former for both.

Nathan Adams – Temple of Reviews

#Noah is a complicated film, but strong overall. The studio seems lost, but they at least have a good product to figure out how to sell.

Really only the first half of #Noah has been advertised, minus some heavy fantasy elements. The second half is character-based thriller.

Opinions will differ, but nobody needs worry Aronofsky has stepped out of his wheelhouse to do studio fare. #Noah
