Best movie of this year hands down!
It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.
If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
In other words,this film is a surreal ride.
I love this movie. I have watched it approximately 7 times and I still learn something new each time. A comet passes over and causes a blackout. One house appears to have power in the distance. That's when the confusion starts. Follow closely, especially the photos. Who is meant to be in the house? The acting is great, considering they were given a premise and not a script.
Coherence has a clever movie plot but could have gone further with the concept. A unique style of sci-fi that I wish there was more of (especially in lieu of the copious amount of time travel movies people make). It doesn't have, or need, special effects. That along with the story-line likely led to a low overall production cost, but didn't affect the quality; I'm sure to the delight of the producer. I also enjoyed the display of emotion from the characters. I'm giving it an extra star for it's distinctiveness.
The story is one of many recent science fiction films involving complex alternative realities. It was equal to any I have seen. I was wondering while watching it- does the writer/director need to draw up diagrams in order to assemble the plot and achieve the right balance between order and disorder? From what I have read I believe the answer is yes. As others have commented, the person who created this film produced an amazing piece of work with meager resources. Except for imagination which he had in abundant supply.
Very bad acting and writing. The plot is interesting but the acting is unbearable.
