a film a little ahead of its time ( it will find its true audience one day, trust me)

Rating: 8/10 (2 February 2019)

To make a film that did not succeed at the box office, but will succeed in pleasing fans later, congratulations....you're film did not fail in my eyes. This is true talent, and only a handful of filmmakers have succeeded in such milestones. Cloud Atlas was a little ahead of its time, but I have no doubt it will find its true audience one day. Myself, I could not get into it, believe me, I have tried. However, I have no doubt that this is a solid piece of work, and from what I've seen, a lot of time and efforts were put forth here. The film itself is incredible, posing elements such as dark humor, violence, and seamless time shifts with multiple characters taking on multiple roles. From what I've seen, this is a wonderful film, however, it is not a film for everyone. I've seen enough to boast its colorfulness, its creativity, and its sense of passion for what it does as a whole. This movie works, quite well, and it has many amazing surprises. It was just made a little ahead of its time. Ten, maybe twenty years from now, people will be talking about Cloud Atlas. And you can thank them now for it, too.
