Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Ava-Grace Willis Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

Taha Avalos The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

phillyproduct125 Noah's Arc is a show about four black gay men dealing with all sorts of human issues dealt not just within the gay community, but within every community. Noah, played by Darryl Stephens, is a wallflower, screenwriter type who is looking for the perfect love in Wade. Wade, played by Jensen Atwood, is also a screenwriter who has never been in a relationship with a man, until he met Noah. Noah has three friends. Alex, played by Rodney Chester, who runs an HIV clinic and is going through the ups and downs of being in a long term relationship. Ricky, played by Christian Vincent, is the promiscuous store owner on Melrose, who is protective over his friends and afraid of monogamy. Chance, played by Doug Spearman, is a college professor, who is adjusting to the idea of having a husband and raising a child. Each one of these actors are tailor made for their parts on this show. I know the show is not for everyone, and it's not claiming to be for everyone. But if your into watching a show dealing with human beings with human issues that remind you of yourself or someone you know, I guarantee you'll love this show. Patrik Ian Polk has done an amazing job creating a show that incorporates comedy, drama and lust in a time frame of 22 minutes. I just wish the show was longer. I really hope that this show continues to grow and stays on the air for a very long time. In 2006, its about time someone like Patrik Ian Polk had the guts to say screw the masses and create a show as groundbreaking as Noah's Arc. This is a great wake up call for all people.

stseanoftheknife I understand the need for there to be more visible queer black characters in the forefront of queer media. Even Queer as Folk which broke so much ground in terms of the gay soap opera was still mighty white. So, while I applaud LOGO for their presentation of Noah's Arc, I have to ask, even though there is a need, does this show answer the need? I found the show to be interesting, but the plot holes and lack of structure (ironic considering the titular character is a writer) to be annoying, too annoying to appreciate the more charming moments (but only moments) the show had.Among the annoyances were: *Who IS Trey? Hot guy, but completely under utilized in his role. For all it matters, Alex could be single. And why does he have to be a nurse? He could be a pilot or a waiter or the CEO of Sony or a parrot for all that he does each episode. Same thing with Brandy - what a GREAT character to add to the mix. Someone sassy and all LA Business, but she's just a vehicle for Noah to have a "secret" from Wade.* Why are plot points brought up and then never used again? For example, the guy robbing Ricky's store while he's getting busy in back would make a great plot for Ricky to deal with - calling the police, having to explain where he was, having him come to some realization and grow as a character. Nope - it was dropped. Or Fernando, the HIV+ hustler whose only role was to serve as a vehicle for Alex quitting his job to open a new clinic. What happened to Fernando - he's a character, a character that Alex could have used to grow as a character himself, not a plot device.*The pacing seems all off in the show. For example, when Chance moves in with Eddie we get no information about how they met, what they mean to each other, how they came to the decision to move in together - yet within 5 minutes, Chance is trying to back out of the living together situation. Why? If we assume it's "for the regular reasons" well then this main character is just a shmuck - and a two-dimensional one at that; if there's a more compelling reason, I'd like to see it acted out. Also, what was up with Chance and his landlord? They act like they are very close but we don't know why or if we should even care.*Why does it take less than an episode to solve problems? No problem seems .. well, problematic. Nor do they really seem all that important. Dive an SUV into a house? No problem - it's built like a tank (not a scratch on it) and the resident doesn't want to press charges. Closested boyfriend brings you to meet his straight friends for the first time? No problem - order an apple martini and cut to the next scene. Let the audience figure out what might have happened. Closeted boyfriend jealous of your best friend's playfulness? No problem - ignore what he's feeling and make sure that in the next scene he puts his arms around you first.I blame two things - weak writing and the show's 30 minute running time. If the show were an hour long, there would be much more time to develop not only the characters but conflicts and the resolutions as well. If the writers were stronger they'd be able to navigate the characters' way through real, interesting daily life conflicts and resolutions without such abruptness.The idea behind Noah's Arc answers the need for diversity in queer entertainment and may be "better than nothing", but I think the community deserves "something more". The rub between the need for this show and its sloppy execution of this show makes me hope that others will cry out for better quality in future seasons.

AlanLight-2 This is the best thing I've seen since the original British Queer As Folk in 1999. Smart, funny, superbly acted, charming. The only downside is that the DVD version does not have the same songs as when broadcast on LOGO. Diana Ross' terrific song in episode 9, for example, has been replaced with the Noah's Arc theme song. What a shame. I assume it cost too much to get the rights to the original songs for DVD, and that's why this excellent series took so long to come out on DVD - to replace all the music. I was wondering what was taking so long. Still, don't let this quibble stop you from enjoying the series. It's really terrific.

Adam Appel Say it doesn't represent you if you like, I have yet to see a positive image of two black men in love on TV anywhere. The series, unlike the pilot, alternates between touching and melodramatic. Possibly one of the best series ever and the best representation of black gay love ever done, period.And not just because it's the only one, I've seen plenty of grab and grope movies, this show is sweet and thoughtful in its main storyline. THe characters aren't convicts forced to fall in love because they're aren't any women around, a common theme in some gay black films. They aren't both terrified of who they are. They come into their own love and accept it for what it is, besides Noahs' idiocy in the season finale.All in all, one of the best love stories I've seen and I can't wait to see where it goes. I hope it actually gives us a happy ending.
