Cloud Atlas (film) 2012 Review

Cloud Atlas is an upcoming epic sci-fi/fantasy adventure-drama film written and directed by Lana and Andy Wachowski and Tom Tykwer. It was adapted from the 2004 novel of the same name by David Mitchell. With a budget of $100 million, a portion of which came from Warner Bros., but most of which was raised from independent sources, Cloud Atlas is the most expensive independent film of all-time.

With an ensemble cast to cover the film's multiple storylines, production began in September 2011 at Studio Babelsberg in Germany.

The film premiered on September 9, 2012 at the 37th Toronto International Film Festival, where it received a 10-minute standing ovation. It is scheduled to be released on October 26, 2012 in conventional and IMAX theaters

Summary
An epic story of humankind in which the actions and consequences of our lives impact one another throughout the past, present, and future as one soul is shaped from a murderer into a savior and a single act of kindness ripples out for centuries to inspire a revolution.
