How would you rank the story arcs?


1. Half Lives: The First Luisa Rey Mystery (70's Mystery saga just so cool)
2. The Ghastly Ordeal of Timothy Cavendish (Hilarious and beautiful)
3. An Orison of Sonmi-451 (Just flat out awesome)
4. Letters from Zedelghem
5. Sloosha's Crossin' an' Ev'rythin' After
6. The Pacific Journal of Adam Ewing

The Ghastly Ordeal of Timothy Cavendish was easily my favorite.

I quite liked The Pacific Journal of Adam Ewing too.

Sloosha's Crossin' was pretty good.

The others I'm lukewarm about, the Sonmi-451 segment being my least favorite in spite of one of my favorite actresses, Bae Doona, being the main person in it.

1. Letters from Zedelghem (It reminds me of The Hours, the main character is quite overdramatic though)
2. The Ghastly Ordeal of Timothy Cavendish (Perfect comic relief)
3. Half Lives: The First Luisa Rey Mystery (Nice and well done)
4. An Orison of Sonmi-451 (It's kinda meh, full of cliche, the make-up is horrible, the ending is nice)
5. Sloosha's Crossin' an' Ev'rythin' After (I don't like post-apocalypse movie, the plot is nothing new but It's good to be the closure)
6. The Pacific Journal of Adam Ewing (I don't know, I just couldn't careless about this)

Overall, I give this movie 7/10 so not a big fan.
