Wonderful Production, but Simple Message

Rating: 5/10 (5 November 2012)

Our lives are intertwined. We are who we have been, and who we will become. We repeat mistakes.
There ya go. Now you know the movie. Cloud Atlas is very entertaining, and well-written. The production is spectacular and the acting is excellent with the exception of Halle Berry as the Prescient, but it really isn't as thought-provoking as you might hope.
Most disappointing is that the audience is never treated to an opportunity to listen to the musical composition "Cloud Atlas" for more than a few seconds. Some of the long-winded reviews here are mostly wind.
