Movie Reviews of The Noah
Movie Review: The last man on earth IS the last man/human on earth!
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm gonna make this short.
Yes, I look at those end of the world movies--none of them are written the way I think things would happen. Futher, when you get to the last human on earth type story--there's ALWAYS more humans.
Not so, this one. Our military person--private Noah is the last human on earth. Finally, someone did such a movie.
Anyway, so as not to drag on, or give away secrets of the film, let me just add a few things here;
1. Noah joined up in 1941. He was a thirty year man. He was just a few months short of finishing his 30 year tour when nuclear world war broke out. From the moment he first comes on camera he has a three month beard...by the end of the movie he has a six month beard. Therefore, I calculate the story takes place somewhere between 1971 and 1973.
2. Two,...how on earth could a thirty year man muster out of the military as only a private?! (he must have been some hell rasier).
3. I think that last night of his going through the junkyard had somesort of special message, some of us missed. I'm not sure, but I 'think' his dilusions were how WWII started, and took us up through NASA's barn storming days. (all because the American soldiers made the world safe). Then, the civilian populations of the world started getting mouthy and causing trouble (or at least talking like they were going to cause trouble all over again)--this is the point Noah brings back his old company of soldiers and sends them out there to bring order--.
Apparently, the civil unrest was too much for the militaries which reacted.
World War Three broke out.
4. Finally, I wish they'd used better dialogue in the junkyard scenes and other off camera voices saying other things so this would have been clearer. I like the movie. I really do--but for the same cost (and slightly altered dialogue) it could have been great.
Anyway, I recommend this movie to everybody who likes a little more intelligence with their art than 'Harlotwood' is grinding out nowadays. Oh yes, don't expect the usual sciencefiction trappings. In realitly, this is fiction--not really science fiction--maybe leaning toward horror just a little. No spaceships, no sluts, no robots, no mass murder--just some good old fashion drama by a writer and director and actor who had a clue on just how to make a movie...with one actor on camera.
Here's a toast to the American Veterian of WWII.
bye.
Summary of The Noah
Noah, the sole remaining survivor on our planet after a nuclear holocaust, finds himself unable to accept his unique predicament. To cope with his loneliness, he creates an imaginary companion, then a companion for his companion and finally an entire civilization - a world of illusion in which there is no reality but Noah, no rules but those of the extinct world of his memory - our world. This once thought "lost" classic is presented for the first time in the world in a newly remastered Special Edition restored from the newly discovered original 35mm film negatives.Drama DVD Video
