| Salon.comAndrew O'HehirIts too-muchness is also the source of its power; I was absolutely never bored, and felt surprised when the movie ended. It's an amazing, baffling, thrilling and (for many, it would appear) irritating experience, and for my money the most beautiful and distinctive big-screen vision of the year. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertIt fascinates in the moment. It's getting from one moment to the next that is tricky. Surely this is one of the most ambitious films ever made. |
| Cinemaphile.orgDavid KeyesA movie that transcends all structure for a meaning much deeper than can ever be written in clarity. |
| 2UE That Movie ShowBlake HowardCloud Atlas is like nothing I've ever seen before. It's a bold cinematic treasure from a brave collaborative filmmaking collective. |
| eFilmCritic.comRob GonsalvesCloud Atlas is never boring; I checked the time at one point, saw that we had about an hour to go, and settled back, relaxed and happy to get more. |
| Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)Ken HankeIf this is moviemaking and not filmmaking, I say let's have more movies and less films. |
| Aisle SeatMike McGranaghanVisually dazzling, superbly acted, and massively ambitious. I'm going to be obsessed with this visionary saga for a while. |
| Tri-City HeraldGary WolcottCloud Atlas brilliantly explores the cloudy topic of reincarnation. |
