In a league of its own

Rating: 10/10 (21 September 2018)

When I first watched this movie a few years ago I didn't have the same level of appreciation I did than when I watched it most recently. It is truly epic in every word. A masterpiece of a new kind has been created with Cloud Atlas. The ongoing impact of kindness and evil is portrayed with such perfection throughout past, present and future. Watching this film just makes me want to be a better human being. We can all be better. And cloud Atlas leads the way not only how we can be better, but also why. The messages throughout the film are truly spine tingling. We are bound to one another. Every action we take has some sort of meaning in another world, another dimension or another time. Ultimately we must avoid making choices which we cannot live with. In a day and age ruled by corruption and evil it is so timely to have a genuine reminder that there is more to life than simply being selfish and caring for yourself only. This film gets points for being both entertaining and educating, but you must be prepared to surrender your attention for the entirety of the long film as otherwise you may find it ''boring.'
