Cloud Atlas (2012)

9.5/10

This unforgettable, enthralling epic has six connected narratives which take place over hundreds of years. Each of the stories was compelling enough to warrant development into individual movies, yet here they are excellently edited so all six unfold simultaneously as the film progresses. The movie contains mixture of action, sci-fi, drama, comedy and thriller genres, and combines them into a supremely entertaining tale in which the nearly three hour run-time isn't felt. A single viewing wasn't enough to grasp an epic of this magnitude. I would also recommend the masterfully written novel by David Mitchell which the movie was based on.
