Nøgleord Noah

I en åbenbaring bliver Noah udvalgt af Skaberen til at redde alle verdens dyrearter og sin familie, inden verden går under i en apokalyptisk oversvømmelse.

Denne filmisk flotte bibelsaga er instrueret af John Huston, som foran kameraet også levendegør filmens mest spændende figur, Noah. Det er en lidt overset film, måske fordi man normalt forbinder John Huston med action, storbystemning og rappe replikker. Her er han gået over i en anden grøft, og han får god hjælp af filmens komponist Toshiro Mayuzumi med sin flotte, symfoniske baggrundsmusik, der rent faktisk ofte er at finde i forgrunden.

Darkness is moving in, and young exorcist Allen Walker is humanity’s greatest hope against the wicked forces conspiring to bring civilization to its knees. Akuma – cruel spirits born of tragedy and lost souls – lurk in every shadow, willing and eager to do the bidding of their leader, the dread Millennium Earl. With an eye cursed to see evil in its truest form and blessed with an arm to slay soul-devouring demons, Allen stands ready to confront the gathering evil. Should he fail, Innocence will be lost forever. The war to decide the fate of mankind has begun – and the carnage will be endless.

Allen Walker is an exorcist working for the Black Order whose mission is to protect mankind from the evil Millennium Earl and his deadly Akuma. Allen and his comrades must recover lost Innocence while defending against the Earl’s terrifying army. But if they fail, Innocence will be lost forever.

In the Biblical story from Genesis, God floods the world as Noah rescues his family and the animals in a gigantic ark.
