Noah

As is true of other excellent retellings of classic stories, this one stays true enough to the original to give it a meaningful connection, while blazing new trails of its own to tell a story that rings true and important today. (The worst stories of the sort – surely you have endured a few – are either pointless imitators or they wander so far afield there is nothing in common with the old story but the names.) Noah is a good man, who loves the world and all its creatures. But when The Creator directs him through visions to prepare for the end, the pressure is too much for him. He struggles to figure out what to do in the absence of absolute knowledge, and he makes a few really bad decisions on the way. The evil that lurks in the hearts of all humanity lurks even in his, righteous though he be. But at the end, there is a measure of hope.

Of course, we all know how the story of humanity's continued existence is going so far, so we are forced to decide if we are happy with how this episode of our story ended.
