- The reincarnation of a soul travels through time beginning with the diary of a potential slave-owner voyaging across the Pacific in 1849, then a talented composer writing letters to his lover in the Britain's 1930s, followed by a reporter investigating a corrupt case about a US nuclear power-plant in the 1970s, succeeded by a publisher's comical entrapment in a nursing home in 2012, followed by a clone's thrilling escape and rebellion in 2144's Korea, and finally a tribesman fighting cannibals in Hawaii in a post-apocalyptic world past 2300. Each story challenges the corrupt norms of the time, changing the course of history, and shaping the future through acts of kindness, big and small.
- Everything is connected: an 1849 diary of an ocean voyage across the Pacific; letters from a composer to his lover; a thriller about a conspiracy at a nuclear power plant; a farce about a publisher in a nursing home; a rebellious clone in futuristic Korea; and the tale of a tribe living on post-apocalyptic Hawaii far in the future.
- If you are the type to choose all-you-can-eat buffets for the quantity of food, with little regard for quality, then you may enjoy this movie. Unlike other detractors, I found the acting and photography mostly well done. I did not mind the same actors playing different characters (à la Peter Sellers in Dr. Strangelove). After all, that is their profession. Objectively, I would have given Cloud Atlas 2 or even 3 stars for cinematography. However, I have given it only 1 star to help counter the outrageous over-rating it has acquired from the easily impressed. Cloud Atlas serves up several different, conflicting film genres, with bits stolen from better movies, without a single original idea of its own. It starts with a nicely realistic South Seas mutiny-type adventure reminiscent of 1984's The Bounty. Then it switches abruptly to an Amadeus type tragedy of a talented composer's life cut short. After a brief paean to the gratuitous violence of a Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, it unexpectedly flips to a light-hearted version of One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. Of course, it throws in the liberal de rigueur anti-nuclear and anti-big oil diatribe from The China Syndrome. Abruptly abandoning all realism, it adds a splash of stylistic action and wooden acting fluff from The Matrix, conflated with a '70's throwback to Soylent Green. Plop on an ending from any post-apocalyptic movie from the past 30 years. Finally top the whole mess off with meaningless new-age beatnik style drivel from Roger Corman's 1959 Bucket of Blood. Taken separately, these different episodes would make a mildly diverting all-night B-movie marathon. Unfortunately, they take this clashing cacophony of different film styles, from well-done realism to silly sci-fi, and intercut the stories in a totally random manner as if they are all related. Really? These stories are all connected by - what? Karma? Love? Fate? Bad makeup? No, silly. They all have the same birthmark. Get it? As long as coherent story-telling and originality are not important to you, then at 3 hours, you will get your money's worth of decent acting and pretty pictures tossed at you in a diverting kaleidoscope fashion. This is to keep you from thinking about what a mess the whole thing actually is.
- Initially I wasn't going to see this film because a reviewer completely trashed it, and also when I read a synopsis it suggested that the only this that was connecting the six separate stories was simply that the guy at the end was telling all of the stories to his children, but after watching it on a plane from Hong Kong to Europe (and pretty much sleeping through most of it because I was just so incredibly tired) I decided that I would give it another go, and fortunately that opportunity arose on the way back to Australia.<br/><br/>I would not necessarily call this movie a great movie and in a way I would probably prefer to read the book (and it is on a list of books that must be read so I guess I will keep my eyes out for it). Anyhow, as we probably all know, this movie is actually six different stories that are somehow all connected. There is the physical connection, in that the first story (at least in the book) is the journal of a man who is coming to understand the evils of slavery as he sits on a boat in the South Pacific. This journal is then picked up by a young man in the 1930s who is a struggling composer being blackmailed because of his homosexuality. He tells his story through a series of letters that is read by a investigative journalist in the 1980s who is investigating a murder relating to the commissioning of a nuclear powerplant. However there is a second link with this composer as he writes a masterpiece called Cloud Atlas, however because of his situation, it literally sits gathering dust for years until uncovered at a later stage.<br/><br/>All of the stories are connected in this way, though a flaw that I found in the movie was that the forth segment, about an old man attempting to escape from an old folks home, does not seem to have a connection with the previous segment, though it is connected to the fifth segment (a near future action story) through a film that they watch, and the fifth segment is connected to the sixth segment (a post apocalyptic adventure) by a recording that is located in a communications station, once again called Cloud Atlas.<br/><br/>However, there is another theme that seems to run through these segments and that is the idea of slavery. The first and the fifth are the most obvious links, with the fifth dealing with a race of clones who are created to simply serve humanity and have no rights whatsoever, and a failed rebellion that arises because of it. It is interesting when that is looked back on there is a suggestion that her impact upon the future was minute indeed, and in fact when we look back from this period the impact of many of those in the past are very few. Yet, the homosexual composer who ends up killing himself in a bathtub (a noble way to go he suggests) has the biggest impact of all, as not only does his composition become very popular (as the record store owner says, I found this and started playing it, and I simply cannot stop listening to it) he also indirectly brings down a conspiracy that is set up by the coal industry to discredit the nuclear industry, as well as causing mass destruction along the way.<br/><br/>The other thing that I liked about this film was how they would jump between the segments, and the way that they did it was quite impressive, and in some cases very seamless. Sometimes the segments would be long, other times they would be short. Sometimes it would simply be like moving to other scene, but at other times the jumps would be related, such as periods of intense passion. However, as said, this movie is good, but it is not fantastic, but it does actually make me want to read the book to see how things are done there (I do have an idea though).
- A manifesto in the form of an enormously budgeted quasi-sci-fi epic, Cloud Atlas is evidently personal, defiantly sincere, totally lacking in self-awareness, and borderline offensive in its gleeful endorsement of revenge violence against anyone who gets in the way of a good person's self-actualization. The rest of the time, it's just insipid, TV-esque in its limited visual imagination, and dramatically incoherent.
- Cloud Atlas is based on the 2004 multi-award winning novel by David Mitchell. It consists of six loosely interconnected stories: an 1850 diary of an ocean voyage across the Pacific; letters from a composer to his friend; a thriller about a murder at a nuclear power plant; a farce about a publisher in a nursing home; a rebellious clone in futuristic Korea; and the tale of a tribe living in post-apocalyptic Hawaii, far in the future. The author himself has indicated that the film will take the loose connections of the novel and expand them into the major theme of the film: "The reincarnation motif in the book is just a hinted-at linking device, but the script gives it centre stage to link the six worlds with characters, causes and effects." The film will also feature all the principal actors playing multiple roles of different ages, sexes and races. "A novel can't do multi-role acting: a film can," says Mitchell. "The directors are playing to the strengths of their medium, just like I try to." The novel was shortlisted for the 2004 Booker Prize, Nebula Award, Arthur C. Clarke Award, among many others. There are three pieces: (1) "Prelude: The Atlas March" by Tom Tykwer, Reinhold Heil and Johnny Klimek (from the film's soundtrack); (2) "Sonera" by Thomas Bergersen; and (3) "Outro" by M83. In chronological order:<br/><br/>"The Pacific Journal of Adam Ewing" - Wachowskis<br/><br/>"Letters from Zedelghem" - Tykwer<br/><br/>"Half Lives: The First Luisa Rey Mystery" - Tykwer<br/><br/>"The Ghastly Ordeal of Timothy Cavendish" - Tykwer<br/><br/>"An Orison of Sonmi-451" - Wachowskis<br/><br/>"Sloosha's Crossin' an' Ev'rythin' After" - Wachowskis a5c7b9f00b
