Expectation overtakes the creation!

Rating: 7/10 (28 October 2012)

After a long interval, "Wachowski Brothers" (The Matrix) collaborated with German director "Tom Tykwer" (Perfume) and who have made a film "Cloud Atlas" from the adaptation of the novel of the same name written by David Mitchell in 2004.
It's an epic adventure film which is talking about the humanity in past, present & future revolution of the same soul, based on multiple story lines in different ages. The different avatars of Tom Hanks & Jim Broadbent were highly impressed with their great performance. The other cast such as Jim Sturgess, Hugo Weaving & Ben Whishaw who have done their job well. Especially the costumes and makeup were strikingly beautiful and it grabs its audience with stunning visual effects.
The narrative structure of this film is a bit longer and harder than the Inception's chronological order! At the same time, the message of the film which is not clear and enough for such a complicated screenplay & stories like this. The plot order which is purposely arranged according to the script, but fails to interpret. And also this film lacks its associated dialog; which is a major disappointment and it is totally unexpected from "Wachowski Brothers" who have written the script for "V for Vendetta" and more. Editor of the film, "Alexander Berner" who has done an excellent job. Overall the crew who have made the film brilliantly, but unfortunately presented the mess. (expecting an extended Director's Cut)
