    Cloud Atlas

    Reviewed by

    Moral confusion, religious hodge podge, obvious lifestyle agendas are a few ways to describe this film. It was excellently executed like no other film I've seen before. Despite my dislike of messages concerning relativity of world views blatantly placed in the film, the stories were engaging. It's amazing to witness so much in the delivery of each sub story. I only give it a "7" because it's another film that causes confusion around life's questions concerning our origin, destination, the human condition, GOD, right and wrong. My narrow simple minded, Biblical worldview (as many would describe me) comes into play here believing the Bible when it states in Hebrews 9:27 "Man is destined to die once..." and not exist in some reincarnated state. Contradicts Jesus Christ when he said," I am the way (to GOD), the truth (absolute) and the life (eternal)..". The positives of the film is that it focuses on oppression based on nearly every sociological classification possible, including race, economic status, age and how people are born. All men and women are created in the image of GOD. Good acting by most all. Unnecessary nudity, gory violence (parents beware) and drug use are other items I disliked. A movie I would only recommend to those who can discern through the maze and mayhem of mixed messages.

    Hi jdjefford, I liked your review in so much that you admit your own personal bias from the start. I also sense you are a real filmaphile. Sounds like a must see movie... hope I can get tixs for tonite!
