"SUPERBLY ORIGINAL."
-Patrick Stinson, REELZCHANNEL

Six stories spanning centuries. One soul. Tom Hanks and Halle Berry lead an all-star cast in interwoven tales as time shifts between past, present and future. As characters reunite from one life to the next, their actions generate consequences: A killer evolves into a hero. An act of kindness inspires a revolution. Cloud Atlas combines science fiction, drama, mystery, action and romance insto a film that's "utterly, wonderfully epic" (Solvej Schou, EW.com).

My Comments:

This isn't the type of film I normally go for, but the concept is highly original and very engaging.
