Great Film for People that Pay Attention

Rating: 8/10 (29 December 2012)

I watched Cloud Atlas with my family and at the end of the movie it was apparent that most of them did not get it. The reason for this was that my family does not pay attention well.
This film is deep, really deep. So deep that some may have to watch it twice to fully understand it (I don't recommend it as it's almost 3 hours long). So for the sake of your entertainment or time, pay good attention to what is going on in the film and take a mental note of what is going on.
Cloud Atlas is one of those movies you really have to think about. To truly appreciate the film you have to buy in to the idea that everything you do has an effect in some way and that a soul lives on forever and can be changed.
Tom Hanks was fantastic in this film, he played 5 or 6 roles, so did the other actors.
Cloud Atlas will be remembered as a strange movie with a deeper meaning.
