Cloud Atlas

Cloud Atlas was originally based on a book and though I'm usually a fan of novels that are adapted to film (see Gone Girl for instance), Cloud Atlas might be best suited as a novel instead. The move is quite long and tells several disjointed stories that weave together over space and time. It's kind of cool as a movie but I'm sure if far more enjoyable in book form. I'd also call this an artistic film because actors played several different roles depending on the context. It had a good cast, interesting scenes with some decent visual effects, but overall, I just wasn't that in to it.
