Review:
Cloud Atlas is the most anticipated film of the year. Based on the book of the same name written by David Mitchell, this sci-fi film tells the story in three different times past present and future. All the story takes place simultaneously and are well interlinked.
As always Tom Hanks has acted superbly and so has Halle Berry. Tom has played role in all the three eras and has done justice to each role.
All the different time periods and different situations are presented superbly.
