Now you may hear a lot of negative feedback on Steve Carell's new movie Evan Almighty, but I am here to say that the movie is not as bad as you may have heard.
First a little information about the movie. Steve Carell plays bumbling broadcaster Evan Baxter, only now he is a representative of congress in Washington D.C., getting in with the campaign slogan of "Change the World". He then moves his family to a big new house in Virginia. His life seems perfect until God (Morgan Freeman) calls on him with an outrageous request. The request is to build an ark and fill it with 2 of every animal because of a flood coming to wipe out the land (from the tale in the bible). At first Evan ignores god will, but after things start happening to him like his facial hair growing abnormally fast, and animals following him 2 by 2 everywhere he goes, he realizes that there is no way he can ignore Gods plan for him. This leaves his family and fellow congressmen wondering if Evan is losing his mind due to the stress of his job, or if he is on to something of biblical proportions.
