Based on the best-selling novel, and from the creators of The Matrix Trilogy and the director of Run Lola Run, Cloud Atlas explores how the actions and consequences of individual lives impact one another throughout the past, the present and the future. Action, mystery and romance weave dramatically through the story as one soul is shaped from a killer into a hero and a single act of kindness ripples across centuries to inspire a revolution in the distant future.

One of the films which I don't get. After I watched it carefully, I don't even know what this film is all about. It's really confusing and also bad directing. Regret watching it.

I feel like it tried to be really deep and moving a bit too much. It seemed a bit over dramatic with the main composition constantly pushing the film on when I feel like it needed to chill. I really liked what it has to say but I kinda grew tired of everyone talking like they are giving a dramatic ted talk.

Not sure why so many people disliked this movie. Saw it at least a dozen times and with each viewing I find things I missed and appreciate. The film is based on a book that was a bit difficult to read... I thought the Wachowski's and Tom Tykwer did a work of magic bringing David Mitchell's novel to life. Visually stunning, an amazing OST, and Incredible performances by pretty much the entire cast.
