    I DONT CARE what the critics or common movie goers have to say to bash this film. This movie is a work of art and certainly one of the greatest and memorable films I will ever watch. I do admit, when I read the book, in comparison the stories were a bit rushed but I still love the movie regardless; the connection between these stories are phenominal, the music is spotless and seeing the cast playing multiple roles each with different identities is incredible. It made me start believing that no matter how long we may live, nothing ever ends and if our stories we make don't have a great ending or so we will always have the time to make a better one!

      I could not agree more with your comments. I still cannot believe this movie has not won the recognition it truly deserves. This movie is the best movie I have seen in a long time. I saw it four times and I still find it fascinating! Superb cast, directors, music, story line as you said a work of art no doubt!

      +ninigreen7 I think the reputation of this movie will improve as time passes and it finds its audience on DVD, Blu-ray or download. Many films that are now considered classics were misunderstood, and fared poorly either critically or at the box office during their time of initial release.

      Because critics are @$$holes, they're the ones who tried and failed so they try to wreck other people with their own imagined self importance.
      Lest we forget, CRITICS said this: your music and career will sink like a lead dirigible... The guy that turned down signing Led Zeppelin.🤯
      Your music belongs in the garage, take it back to Queens and stay there... The guy that didn't sign The Ramones. 🤯
      Not a novel, it's the childlike ramblings of a misspent unhappy childhood... The last guy that turned down some writer from Maine ...
      aka Steven King 🤯
      When a band that tried, but didn't quite get it BASHED a music critic who said they 'needed more seasoning as a band.' 😤
      "Well if you think you can do better, GO AHEAD." 🤯☝️
      Bad move, the music critic and journalist did just that. Called her college friend James Honeyman-Scott, who called up his friends and The Pretenders were born. 🤯😲😉

      Yeah, sometimes the critic DOES know best, but that's super rare when they do. The paying public always knows more.

    It's so great to read that others here in this forum had and the same reactions that I indeed had to this film. I not only thought it was a masterpiece of film art but also a film replete with several strong messages about love, courage, aspects of immortality, fate, justice, and the never ending cycle of life which keeps on trying to unfold and answer those questions about what passes for progress and often regret. The film is a classic and after I saw it alone I drove back home thinking that this film will be talked about for a long time in the future as truly visionary and vastly important. Like others here I thought the fact that the Academy Awards ignored this film was egregious and simply wrong. I believe this film, like Citizen Kane, will prevail in the end to be important even without the accolades and awards it failed to garner in 2012.

    Before you get weird feelings about the Chinese reporters asking questions in Mandarin, understand that this movie made the most money in the Chinese box office, even more than in the US. Xun Zhou is a BIG deal in the East, and casting her was a brilliant way to connect this story to another part of the world while getting the chance to share her talent with US audiences.

      a prolific pear tree.
      2.

      a bequest prolific of litigations.

    ok I've had this really long Cloud Atlas crisis lately. I watched it in the theater when it was released in 2012 and once in a while I watch it again, but two weeks ago I watched it at night after a party, totally drunk and I cried like a baby, and I repeated on loop the scene where Sixsmith goes to find Robert in that... churh-tower-like just after Sixsmith's niece talks about how Sixsmith believed love was a natural force
    and I cried and I cried, and these two past weeks I've been thinking about cloud atlas all day long, I even read the book (2 days, I read it in two days, fuck me). I'm even been writing this weird story about reincarnation inspired by the ideas from the movie, in a different way, but still...
    and I would say by logic "SAVE ME FROM THIS!" but I don't wanna be saved, because this is my fave movie of all time!!!

      It’s so beautiful. Once you get it. You can’t forget it. It’s deeper than just a movie or entertainment. It’s a message into a glimpse of how the world could be if everyone got it. The evolution of souls. People are good. They are influenced by a dark force in this story. But as seen with Tom Hanks soul. We can evolve and we can change and deny evil. It’s so beautiful because it’s true. The message is for us. You might also really enjoy a book called Out of the silent planet by CS Lewis. Similar themes ( in a different way). Glad you were touched

    For me, the best part of this conference was when Andy and Lana were asked to discuss their relationship as a filmmaking duo and brother and sister. Andy will clearly stick by his sister through and through, and Lana obviously couldn't be more grateful that her brother never gave up on her, especially after she made the transition. It makes me grateful that after all the craziness of our childhood, my brother and I were able to reconcile and develop a stronger relationship.

    I would just like to point out that the questions asked by the Chinese journalists are absolutely shallow and stupid. To be quite frank I wish the Chinese journalists didn't speak a word, wasting the time of the others. Self-centered and ignorant, rude and awkward questions. The level of their English is absolutely unprofessional. As a Chinese American I want to point out that it is EXTREMELY rude to speak in Chinese like that at an open audience as such. I have always disliked Chinese jurnalism for their lack of sensitivity, open-mindedness, creativity and knowledge. The film is a brilliant master pice, it is absolutely stunning aesthetically, and the writing is so beautiful and flawless. Forever my favorite film.

      Delong Tsway an open Q&A should be treated considerately, each question should be asked not only for yourself, but for the others. When a question is being answered from the cast or creators, everyone in the audience is listening, that is why they're there, to listen and take notes. If you call that a translation, my friend, you obviously have no clue about respecting your listeners. Yes, the girl did "translated" what Zhou Xun has said, but barely, there was absolutely no professionalism taken place. You may speak out in Chinese, yes! with pride, but in a situation like this, to respect the others/ your listeners, please, have someone that can really translate. The poor translation serves absolutely no purpose, and it wastes the time of the others.
