In the Blink of an Eye (2026)

The director of WALL-E attempts his live-action Cloud Atlas — three timelines, centuries apart, connected by the stubborn human need to connect. Beautiful to look at, frustrating to sit through.

Crowd Score: 5.6/10

Who Is It For?

Viewers who appreciate ambitious, contemplative sci-fi that prioritizes mood and theme over plot mechanics. If you loved the quiet moments in WALL-E or Arrival's meditation on time and connection, this aims for that territory. Stanton completists and fans of multi-timeline narratives like Cloud Atlas will find it worth a Hulu watch.

Quite boring... done a million times. Not bad but never reached heights it was reaching for.
