Cloud Atlas
A set of six nested stories spanning time between the 19th century and a distant post-apocalyptic future. Cloud Atlas explores how the actions and consequences of individual lives impact one another throughout the past, the present and the future.

One year went to see 2001: A Space Odyssey in 70mm, & saw Cloud Atlas was playing close enough of a walk at Times Sq AMC. So on spur of moment I went, and…
unlabelledView post →So one of the homeless people explains to me, for price of one movie ticket at start of the day, if you move theater to theater, you can stay warm, get some sleep, see movies. And then we all watched Cloud Atlas together, which felt perfect. Unforgettable and why I always associate it with Xmas.

unlabelledView post →Finally! Cloud Atlas in 4K. One of the most ambitious, beautiful films ever made. Seeing it get the 4K treatment feels right. A film this beautiful deserves to be experienced in the best quality possible. #PhysicalMedia #Filmsky #Moviesky 🎬 🎥 📼
unlabelledView post →For me, it's the kind of film I've learned to respect over time. I love the Matrix and Cloud Atlas, so I was hoping to fall in love with this one. My first impression was disappointing, but I've since found things I like. Even if I can't consider it one of those classics I recommend every month.

unlabelledView post →Also did he compare my novel to a movie that came out ten years ago (Cloud Atlas) and an even older movie that's almost as old as I am (Blade Runner) and then call Toward Eternity hopping on that "trend"? A twenty year-old trend? What? Sloppy writing from the Korea Times.
unlabelledView post →The Matrix is one of those movies where, no matter what either of the Wachowskis does after, there is literally no arguing that they are master filmmakers. The Matrix is, imho, one of the greatest movies ever made. And to follow that up with V for Vendetta and Cloud Atlas... Honestly, the Wachowskis are probably my favorite people in Hollywood. Also, controversial opinion, but Speed Racer was great.

unlabelledView post →I would like to see a lot more women get to make maximalist films like Digger, Beau Is Afraid, Megalopolis, The Brutalist, One Battle. The kind of movie where it seems like no one ever said "no" to the director. The only ones I can think of are The Substance and... Cloud Atlas?

unlabelledView post →The extended Cloud Atlas trailer is, IMO, the best cut of that film. I revisit the Fury Road trailers often too. Then I usually have to watch the film again. www.youtube.com/watch?v=hWnA...
unlabelledView post →Cloud Atlas is my usual mention. Favourite movie and it's usually a fairly even split between people like myself who love it and people who think it's garbage. Not much middle ground
unlabelledView post →It was a viewing and experience I will never forget. Meeting the Wachowskis, talking with them, seeing the film in a packed house as CLOUD ATLAS took our collective breath away. And in 2025, its message rings all the more true-true. It is one of the best films of my life. No hyperbole.

unlabelledView post →My favourite trailer is probably the extended trailer for Cloud Atlas: www.youtube.com/watch?v=hWnA... The movie and the trailer are both masterpieces, IMO I'd never read the comments section for the trailer before, but it's got to be one of the most positive places on the internet

unlabelledView post →Oh, huh. The 2012 film Cloud Atlas was a Wachowskis/Tykwer thing. That's entirely unsurprising but not because of the Wachowskis. The 1998 Tom Tykwer film Lola Rennt, uh, crawled so this film could run, let's say. (Yes, the verbs don't especially make sense there. Forgive me.)

unlabelledView post →People boil indie down to aesthetics because unfortunately "independent control" can stretch pretty far in both directions. Cloud Atlas was an independent film, in the most technically correct way possible.

unlabelledView post →Cloud Atlas by David Mitchell. The movie was great, but the book is truly unique in how the story is written around a bunch of primary sources.
unlabelledView post →Cloud Atlas Brilliant performance in a brilliant film
unlabelledView post →Sunshine is really good, Arrival of course, Cloud Atlas is one of my favorite movies of all time, Mars Express, a french animated movie, A Scanner Darkly, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless mind for a more light-SF and more human and relation-oriented movie
unlabelledView post →say what you want about Cloud Atlas being my favourite movie (its not a 6h b&w bulgarian film with 0 discernible plot and characters so it being my favourite makes me Not A True Art Fan) but it is the only piece of media i have watched that has made me feel something akin to hope for the future
unlabelledView post →Ok I’m saying Cloud Atlas, because as insane and problematic as that movie can be, it sparked a very fun 6 hour conversation with friends after we watched it and that has to count for something hahah

unlabelledView post →☢️#189. Cloud Atlas, 2012. With quite possibly the most annoying invented language in cinematic history destroying my daydreams of a #TomHanks driven #postapocalyptic movie, I still found this less disappointing than the #Matrix sequels. #Wachowskis 3.5/5 ☢️

unlabelledView post →Happy SPEED RACER is coming, but no new special features makes me sad. They wouldn’t be hard to get. Tons of us love and would happily advocate for this film. Hell, Shout got the sisters to talk on CLOUD ATLAS. Also, change the credits please, like they did with CLOUD ATLAS.

unlabelledView post →…That sounded a bit more dismissive of Cloud Atlas than I meant it to! It is a flawed film to be sure, but I still enjoy it. It's my favourite Wachowski after The Matrix. But I really do think that has to be one of the greatest trailers of all time.
