I don’t know what people expect. The Bible’s account on Noah and the arc is that Noah was to build an ark and grab two of each species and then get every animal inside and his family. How do you expect that to be two hours? Seriously you are asking too much.

Note that God caused those animals to come to Noah. Noah was commanded to bring them inside the ark, which he did. Also note (as a side note) that it was God that closed the door of the ark.

Genesis 6:19, 20

19 You are to bring into the ark two of all living creatures, male and female, to keep them alive with you.

20 Two of every kind of bird, of every kind of animal and of every kind of creature that moves along the ground will come to you to be kept alive.

Genesis 7:8, 9

8 Pairs of clean and unclean animals, of birds and of all creatures that move along the ground,

9 male and female, came to Noah and entered the ark, as God had commanded Noah.

Genesis 7:16

16 The animals going in were male and female of every living thing, as God had commanded Noah. Then the LORD shut him in.

I thought it was 7 pairs of each species? I guess I need to open a book

Throw in a few car chases and an exploding bridge and a shootout in a shopping mall. It’s already inaccurate so why not go for broke?
