VHS Movie Reviews of In Search of Noah's Ark
Movie Review: Widely Regarded as A Hoax ----- So Be Warned
Summary: 1 Stars
In 1977, a documentary called "In Search of Noah's Ark" aired on numerous television stations, claiming that the Ark had been found on Mt. Ararat. This documentary was based on a book of the same title by David W. Balsiger, and continues to be taken seriously by some in the Ark-search community, though is widely regarded as another hoax. Balsiger also co-authored "Ancient Secrets of the Bible" but that book also sensationalized its subject matter. Both of these books pushes the facts to one side -- basically trying to prove to the reader that "everything about the Bible is true" so therefore, any religion that says it is based purley on the Bible is also true. There are many inaccuracies, and certain items seem to be just "assumed" as fact instead of actually backed by proven statistics or certified professionals.
Reguardless of being well-know as a hoax, even today, it reassured the previous assumptions of the Ark being on Mt. Ararat, and people still look for it on a yearly basis. There are MUCH better documentaries out there on the subject, and they're even certified by well-respected institutions. Many people would love to see "hard" evidence of the Ark, because if it IS true, then what else in the Bible could be proven real? Stay away from programs that say the Ark is 100% real upfront, for they usually can't show you any actual evidence or live witnesses. Look elsewere.
This production is not to be confused with an episode from the third season of "In Search Of... Noah's Flood" (1979) narrated by Leonard Nimoy.
Movie Review: Even the ICR rejected ths movie!
Summary: 1 Stars
Some years back I telephoned the Institute for Creation Research in Santee, California. They told me they no longer advocated the film In Search of Noah's Ark on the grounds it contained too much misinformation. This says a lot when a young earth creationist institute rejects a creationist film for being too misinformative. Those YEC's are so rightfully notorious for misquoting scientists themselves and distorting facts like crazy that for them to reject a creationist work shows how bad the latter work must be.This film leaves one with the totally false impression that archaeologist Leonard Wooley in the 1920's found a flood that covered the entire world. Actually Wooley's discovered flood-remains didn't even cover the entire ancient city he was excavating THUS IT SURE DIDN'T COVER THE WHOLE WORLD! Other misinformation abounds. Forget it!Movie Review: Best documentary on research into Noah's Ark
Summary: 5 Stars
This video is great because the information it provides is so important and so hard to find. This video documents any noteworthy research done to find or prove that the Ark of Noah exists on Mt. Ararat. It is a serious documentary loaded with information. The person who wrote that it is a religious cult movie needs treatment. With the same logic, one could call the Old Testament religious cult nonsense (and he basically said that!), and any religions that follow afterwards..Judaism, Christianity, Islam... It is an objective look at historical scientific research which has been serious enough to have been kept in government files. If you're looking for an example, wood was found on barren Mt. Ararat and was taken to a lab to be scientifically analyzed. The conclusion was that a human had worked on the piece of wood and that this wood-type had originated from the land between the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers, exactly where it is supposed to had come from. Along with all the other research described in the video, dating back centuries, if the viewer is a bit intellectual with a scientific mind, one should be marvelled. Compared to the other videos, DVDs, or even books on the subject, this is a superior choice.Movie Review: Classic psycho-religious camp
Summary: 1 Stars
This is it -- the famous creationist movie, full of sophistry, misinformation, logical fallacies, and grainy, out-of-focus photography. It was a minor hit, too. It's a classic for the crazy re-enactments and bad, BAD science within. Viva la "Proof by Blatant Assertion"!It might not be the easiest video to find (try the Video Oyster), but if you can track it down, pair it with PLAN 9 or REEFER MADNESS, and whip out some Kool-Aid and fluffernutters, you've a choice camp party.
