Well, at ChristianAnswers.net, there's mixed reviews. Most of the negative comments are from those who chose not to see the movie.

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I'm normal, it's everyone else who's stiff
Just saw it tonight...
...and I loved it
Warm, funny, blatantly Christian (hence the terrible reviews in the press 
). There were so many in-jokes that you'd only really get if you know God.
Every reason I've seen on here for not seeing it appears flawed to me, and based on inaccurate presumptions. A great family film which portrays much more of God's character than Bruce Almighty.

I do not think movies like this are blasphemous. I think that God has a sense of humor, and personally I think Morgan Freeman got pointers from God on how to act him, because he is awesome as God

I had the same fears about it being a present-day worldwide flood myself, but they were unfounded and unnecessary.
I enjoyed it more thoroughly than its predecessor's somewhat raunchy sense of humor and watered-down Christian elements. This one was kooshy, safe, and pretty blatant about what it wanted to say (though the filmmaker's aren't particularly aimed at witnessing, in all honesty). The only real blasphemy in the films is the fact that God has another tangible human form other than Christ - but c'mon. It's Morgan Freeman. He's the shiz.

It's strange though you know. How bad this movie did at box office I mean. Because if I had judged it by that alone before I saw it, I'd have missed a very very fun and good feeling flick.

It's a really cute movie, and it isn't blasphemous. It's just a fictional story!

I dont want to spoil it, but the flood doesnt happen. There is a dam thats about to break and when it does, everyones in the arc so the city doesnt drown. Not blaspemous at all.
