Cloud Atlas

My only real complaint is that it's overly long, with 6 separate stories on offer the movie clocks in just under 3 hours.

It's also distracting when you see the cast playing six or seven different characters each and things like Hugo Weaving as a Korean man just don't look quite right - The parts are generally well acted, though [unlike when Eddie Murphy plays 7 different characters..]

I would be interested in a version that follows the structure of the novel. The movie tends to weave between the various stories randomly - it is done well though, The story flows and I never felt disoriented.

3 balls.
