While I get that it provides continuity between the stories, I found myself paying more attention to who was playing what than following the story.Klaushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05006608076041962884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3166297507174717122.post-66402423552704141632012-10-30T08:26:35.608-05:002012-10-30T08:26:35.608-05:00You should find my review of Amelie, then.You should find my review of <i>Amelie</i>, then.SJHoneywellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13550007053995112090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3166297507174717122.post-35865336664760606082012-10-30T03:56:09.318-05:002012-10-30T03:56:09.318-05:00WOW,that's the most positive review I have rea...WOW,that's the most positive review I have read on your blog,man.Sounds like a film that must be seen in cinema,can't wait!Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02579915072251488639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3166297507174717122.post-48141273748493172572012-10-28T17:57:26.989-05:002012-10-28T17:57:26.989-05:00I connected with parts of it.

There was barely any emotional-connection I had with this movie and I don’t know why that was, but it just did not work out so perfectly for me in the end.

It takes some concentration and some focus to keep it all straight. I'd recommend not getting a large soda just because of length.<br /><br />Point of fact, Hugh Grant actually looks a lot more disturbing in the far-future story. He just doesn't look fake.SJHoneywellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13550007053995112090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3166297507174717122.post-1822040756649731312012-10-28T04:26:44.548-05:002012-10-28T04:26:44.548-05:00I am a bit worried Cloud Atlas is a big mess only ...I am a bit worried Cloud Atlas is a big mess only those who have read the book can decipher.
