While we have no idea if the upcoming blockbuster Cloud Atlas will be mind bending or a gigantic romantic yawn or something else entirely, the cast is certainly impressive: Academy Award winners Tom Hanks and Halle Berry, and our favorite person to say “Mr. Anderson,” Hugo Weaving, to name three.
But what is even more impressive, and the reason it’s on our Must See list, is what is confirmed by these TV spots and trailer: the visual effects are total eye candy. And if it looks this good here, in IMAX the art should be breathtaking:

From acclaimed filmmakers Lana Wachowski, Tom Tykwer, and Andy Wachowski, the powerful and inspiring epic drama Cloud Atlas explores how the actions and consequences of individual lives impact one another throughout the past, the present, and the future.
Action, mystery and romance weave dramatically through the story as one soul is shaped from a killer into a hero, and a single act of kindness ripples across centuries to inspire a revolution in the distant future.
Cloud Atlas, starring Tom Hanks, Halle Berry, Jim Broadbent, Hugo Weaving, Jim Sturgess, Doona Bae, Ben Whishaw, Susan Sarandon, and Hugh Grant, premieres October 26.
