Possibly the best animated version of Noah's Ark

Watch the film on Youtube. Believe me, it's worth it. The humor is mature enough for adults to enjoy, yet doesn't step on too many taboo toes.

It doesn't sugarcoat *everything*.

Just watch it...

I would recommend this version of Noah's Ark to any parent who isn't afraid of their kid seeing a little more mature humor. Think, 'Brave Little Toaster.' in terms of PC.

All in all, I'd say the film deserves more attention than it's been getting.
