EXcellent Cast, Great Story, Crap Presentaton

Rating: 6/10 (2 December 2018)

Cloud Atlas was difficult to follow and very confusing. The story is good - IF - you can follow it without getting lost. I had trouble with it but got the gist of most of it. You watch part of a story then you get someone else's story set in a different era and it keeps jumping around like that the whole movie. I really wouldn't recommend it, unfortunately. Maybe if it had been filmed so we could see the story progress in a more natural timeline instead of the back and forth format, then I might consider it time well spent but not in its current mishmash of flashbacks and flashforwards.
