Noah (2014) was a big piece of shit, but some tiny portions of

The Virgin Spring
specifically the part where the father prepares sticks to ritually purify himself

movie was a huge fucking letdown except for the parts you mentioned, but would they matter as much if not surrounded in the context of the whole, however shitty? i wonder that whenever i think of them.

>Are there any other movies that pull off that sort of weighty, bleak, biblical and reflective atmosphere? Preferably with weird visuals.

Not quite biblical, but On the Silver Globe might be what you're looking for. Very weird movie. Hard to watch at times, but the visuals and the ideas it throws out are a good source of inspiration, even if incoherent at times.

once you have casted watson and the other young dude that cant act either, you cant go far.

but indeed the scene where noah explain the creation sort of based on the bible and science was just masterfull, and made the movie definitly worth watching

Really? Because it felt really blatant and cheesy to me. "Oh, look at this generic Cosmos footage while some old guy narrates Genesis 1... ain't that thought-provoking?"
Not even an ardent atheist or anything, but trying to make some Iron Age creation myth and modern scientific knowledge gel will always feel forced to me.

I barely remember anything from Noah, but the one thing that did stick out for me were some of the earlier scenes, with Noah and his family in their tent, and the pre-creation-post-apocalypse landscapes. Basically everything before the CGI rock monsters were introduced.
