Ooops! Noah Is Gone...

2015

It's the end of the world. A flood is coming. Luckily for Dave and his son Finny, a couple of clumsy Nestrians, an Ark has been built to save all animals. But as it turns out, Nestrians aren't allowed. Sneaking on board with the involuntary help of Hazel and her daughter Leah, two Grymps, they think they're safe. Until the curious kids fall off the Ark. Now Finny and Leah struggle to survive the flood and hungry predators and attempt to reach the top of a mountain, while Dave and Hazel must put aside their differences, turn the Ark around and save their kids. It's definitely not going to be smooth sailing.

Ages 6+Source checked

Why this age? Young characters face a flood, separation, hungry predators, falls, and apparent drowning, but the animation is comic, bloodless, and reassuring. The story is accessible to most children around six, with sensitivity to peril varying. This is guidance, not a safety guarantee; reading level and family context may differ.
