Pure Chaos does not make compelling art

Rating: 3/10 (17 September 2018)

Whether you are privy to the biblical metaphors is pointless while watching this movie. The movie spends such an extraordinary amount of time in chaos that it fails to provide a degree of compelling cinema. This movie makes Passion of the Christ look like a comedy.
The movie is told from the point of view of Mother Earth. Anxiety prevails in nearly every scene. The director and writers got a bit confused and were caught up in the obtuse presentation of man as pure evil. Whereas, the true nature of man is not evil. Yes, a small single digit percentage perform evil, and intolerable acts. But, the movie portrays man as mainly evil and inheritably difficult and constantly at odds with good. As a consequence there is nobody to root for.
There was nothing for us to like, even God was portrayed as incredibly odd and indifferent. Some stories were not meant to be in long form- at 2 hrs, and this script was one of them.
