However it is not because of great ideas in it, I just enjoyed watching it, every single detail felt extraordinary and of course loved the idea of mixing characters/actors, which seemed confusing at first.<br /><br />Nikahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10302904519424893854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7093895270912854670.post-17911991891250977952012-12-28T16:11:44.679+01:002012-12-28T16:11:44.679+01:00You make a good point, I don't they made any o...You make a good point, I don't they made any of white people look black in this one. s.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13987831438787776712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7093895270912854670.post-76717582249127107662012-12-28T10:39:59.008+01:002012-12-28T10:39:59.008+01:00You probably didn't know the controversy surro...You probably didn't know the controversy surrounding this film: promoting racism targeting at Asian male. This film is a racist film that issued by MANAA (Media Action Network for Asian American). In my opinion, Cloud Atlas is no doubt a racist film that these Hollywood directors are such incompetent fool did not care about the issue surrounding "Yellowfac" while they did not use "Blackface" in fear of repercussion from Black community. Asian community is too weak to protest over the overtly racist usage of Yellowface. Even without Yellowface controvesy, this film is failed to make any point. I see no soul in humanity in this film but I see Hollywood racism is still survived well. <br /><br />Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11171985202371935220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7093895270912854670.post-49561239889399247332012-12-27T15:35:31.502+01:002012-12-27T15:35:31.502+01:00Thank you!

If the story had a potential to interest me, they sadly didn't develop the elements I found fascinating and just kept abandoning them. s.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13987831438787776712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7093895270912854670.post-77292420361004076802012-12-26T22:13:34.919+01:002012-12-26T22:13:34.919+01:00Ouch!

I give the Wachowkis credit for trying something new with the character-swapping, but some of the racial makeup effects were distracting, to say the least.

I'm too tired to read it all at the moment so will check it out again tomorrow haha. <br /><br />I actually found it really engaging and interesting at times, so much so that I overlooked most of it's flaws (runtime urgh...) and left the cinema not minding it (B- / 6/10).<br /><br />I can certainly see why you would give it a 25 and not find any connection with the characters at all, was how I was expecting to feel too.

I think my favorite segment was probably the korean futuristic one as well, but I ended up liking Ben Whishaw as Frobisher more than any other people. After Skyfall and a few others I think I just like him as an actor though.<br /><br />Anyways, I have no experience with the book but from a cinematic perspective I felt like it was a huge waste of talent and money.
