Roger Ebert reviews "Creation"
Darwin walks out on Genesis
By Roger Ebert
on September 10, 2009

During the first press screening here of "http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0974014/">Creation," during a scene when Charles Darwin walks out of church during a sermon on the first book of Genesis, an audience member stood up and walked out. Was he offended by the film? There's no way to say. There were an unusually large number of walk-outs, but who knows if they were leaving for theological reasons, or to get in line for the screenings of "Bright Star" or "Fish Tank," or because of boredom? I hope it wasn't boredom. Although it's a movie with a good deal of talk, at least no one shouted out, "You lie!"
