Best movie ever!

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

A number of interwoven stories that work synergistically so that the the overall appreciation of this film is somehow greater than the simple addition of the individual parts. It put me in mind of Crash but with the added dimension of time.

Got through half an hour of confused stories with actors in multiple parts and no emotional attachment to any of it. If it was all ultimately satisfactorily resolved I don't care! Each to his own taste.

Cloud Atlas has an extremely ambitious idea for a movie at its core, it tells different stories across three different time periods, Past, Present and Future, with the cast playing many characters.While the movie boasts some interesting ideas and concepts, some of those ideas were not fully realized, the script its kind of a mess.The movie fails in delivering a cohesive storyline, this stories would work better if they were short movies however in a full length movie it didn´t work quite that well.sometimes it was like i was watching different movies whenever the stories cut between them , but Cloud Atlas also has is positive aspects most of the cast is good and the cinematography is beautiful, there are some great shots in here, the production design and the costumes are also worth mention as well as the soundtrack, the Cloud Atlas Sextet is terrific. By the end Cloud Atlas ends up being a reasonable movie, although it has some good aspects they are not enough to pass its flaws.6.5/10

This movie is one of the worst movies I've ever seen because it's one of two movies that I don't understand. Every movie I watch, I always understand what they are showing, But this one? I really don't get. Watching this movie is for me, a total waste of time and money.
