This movie is perfection. If any movie ever received a 10 out of 10, it's this one.
But, I honestly don't understand why people were having trouble making sense of it? If you simply don't like it, fine. But to not "get" it? Really?
Well, I thought I had more to say about this, but all I can say is... Really?
I didn't have trouble with it. I "got it," but didn't think much of it. I wouldn't say I hated it, but I didn't love it either. I'm glad I watched it, but I wouldn't be in a hurry to see it again. I have to say I did love the Timothy Cavendish part though. That was my favorite story.

people didn't like it because they are always looking for easy to understand junk, which Cloud Atlas definitely is not..
shareI liked the movie a lot up until the ending. But I just don't share the belief of this reincarnation theory, and for me, the message/purpose of a movie is very important. So, it lost me at the end.
shareI'm with you. I could take the whole reappearance of the same actors as an symbolic illustration of how history repeats itself, but the Wachowskis seem to want us to consider this as more literal. The Matrix series ended much the same way: espousing faith above reason, which is something I cannot get behind.
-There is no such word as "alot."
I don't know how or when I've came across this film but it was probably around 2013 and I couldn't be more glad.
This movie was truly amazing and I really love how there is connection with everything and everyone yet at the end there is no definite answer nor a reason for what happened.
Most of the time I hate open endings but this is one of the exceptions
p.s. do you know a film about universe/world being made by people yet they're not actually human or anything, at the end after world is destroyed they remake it and there is a scene where people with helmets(probably construction workers kinda thing) filling the ocean by using huge water pipes, I might be wrong at describing it but if you recall anything like that please let me know as I've been searching for it's name quite a while now.
re your p.s: Sounds like Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
sharebecause its a pseudointellectual fairy tale presented as an epic masterpiece.
shareIf you figure this one out, maybe you can explain President Trump to me. I turned down party invites twenty-some years ago to avoid that guy.
If reincarnation exists, in order to have 7-8 billion people on the planet simultaneously, there would have to be a lot of (largely clueless) newborn souls. There certainly aren't enough bodhisattvas / buddhas / saints who could fracture to fill all the bodies. Unless some of the bodies are entirely soulless (which sometimes feels like a strong possibility).
OK, to be fair, some belief systems include that it is possible to achieve Enlightenment in a single lifetime via a treacherous left-handed path of indulgence with non-attachment, but it's easier to be born into foster care, kicked out and cut off at 18, and be a multi-billionaire by 25.
