Review of Cloud Atlas (2012) by Blue N — 02 Dec 2018

I'm not one to write reviews unless I feel that the movie is deserving of it. After stumbling across Cloud Atlas while on a search for something worth watching, I must say that it is simply put, an enigmatic tale for the critical thinkers and the self-aware.

It took me 2 days, yes, 2 days to watch the entire movie due to the amount of movie breaks I took. Each scene was an orgasm of mind blowing dialogue and mystery which had me pondering on some of life's greatest questions.

The what ifs. What if we really had the answers to most of the rhetorical questions we often ask ourselves like.."What is the meaning of life? Why am I here? Where do I go after I die? Is there even such a thing as a past life? and if there were, what could I do to make sure I don't repeat the same past life mistakes? Of course to the logical left brain thinker this could only mean one thing.

.there is no such thing. You might even be considered crazy. However, If you're a dominant right brain thinker, like me, one who considers themselves a think outside of the box individual, a wanderer, a free spirit, or even philosophically speaking, a mystic, then this movie is for you.

Beware though, because you might have even more questions after watching than you did prior to watching and then just consider yourself one of the lucky ones, or rather the "blessed" to have experienced such a tale in this age of the enlightened.
