Film review: Cloud Atlas at Plymouth cinemas this week

CLOUD ATLAS (12A)

BOLD ambition shimmers in every frame of Cloud Atlas, the chronologically fractured adaptation of David Mitchell's novel, co-directed by Tom Tykwer of Run Lola Run fame.

The multi-layered narrative ricochets between several timeframes in which a starry cast including Halle Berry, James D'Arcy, Hugh Grant, Tom Hanks and Susan Sarandon adopt myriad guises.

Like the book, the film requires patience. Production design is jaw-dropping and the cast give their all. But Cloud Atlas shoots for the moon and narrowly misses. The three-hour running time will be an endurance test for some.
