The Cloud Atlas

First past of this movie I really loved, but I felt they could have done so much more with it and it kind of went downhill.
But overall o.k.
I did think Tom Hanks borrowed from Philip Seymour Hoffman's performance as Rev. Veasey in Cold Mountain. But I guess even actors need inspiration from each other.

I had thought when I saw the trailer, that it was about people being transported through time, but it's not.
It is kind of confusing until you figure out what is going on. But then I wondered if that was the point of the film, which really didn't have much to say.
It could have been *so* much better. Bad writing.
