CLOUD ATLAS
From acclaimed filmakers Lana Wachowski, Tom Tykwer, and Andy Wachowski, “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.
Upside Down
In an alternate universe where twinned worlds have opposite gravities, a young man battles interplanetary prejudice and the laws of physics in his quest to reunite with the long-lost girl of his dreams in this visually stunning romantic adventure that poses the question: what if love was stronger than gravity?
The Looking Planet is full of imaginative visuals and a refreshing premise in the enduring line of family-friendly sci-fi CG films. And I’m always a sucker for esoteric symbolism; it’s not surprising to find that visionary artist Cameron Gray has contributed his transcendental touch to the production.

How did this visually immersive sci-fi trip slip by me? Seems like it got a lot of mixed reviews but I think I’ll check it out.

One night at a bar, an old friend tells director Ari about a recurring nightmare in which he is chased by 26 vicious dogs. Every night, the same number of beasts. The two men conclude that there’s a connection to their Israeli Army mission in the first Lebanon War of the early eighties. Ari is surprised that he can’t remember a thing anymore about that period of his life. Intrigued by this riddle, he decides to meet and interview old friends and comrades around the world. He needs to discover the truth about that time and about himself. As Ari delves deeper and deeper into the mystery, his memory begins to creep up in surreal images.
