A well made film that turns out to be incoherent. No question this film is interesting and will have you thinking, but about two-thirds of the way through I started not caring as much. A good idea with mediocre results. B-

Coherence is a chaotic and highly spontaneous dinner party mystery. The acting is artificial, which may work for you (or not) as part of the unnerving vibe. The characters' actions are puzzling and the plot is erratic. Coherence is definitelyCoherence is a chaotic and highly spontaneous dinner party mystery.

The plot was not very tight nor clever. It’s a good idea and an ok execution, but I expected more. A bunch of random stuff happened, but I wanted things to fall into place neatly in the end, which didn’t happen. The acting was also veryThe plot was not very tight nor clever.

This was good. It's short enough to be worth engaging with, so I'd say just watch it. Give it a try. It's a perfectly palatable, pretty intelligent sci-fi without glitz and gloss. No spoilers, but the ending is awful, makes no sense andThis was good. It's short enough to be worth engaging with, so I'd say just watch it. Give it a try. It's a perfectly palatable, pretty intelligent sci-fi without glitz and gloss. No spoilers, but the ending is awful, makes no sense and completely contradicts the central protagonist's character. I felt like they ran out of budget or something and the producer burst in on the writer during lunch, said "We can't afford the ending you wrote! You need to wrap up this story in ten minutes! You have five minutes to write the new resolution!" and things went from there. I mean, I literally have never seen a more random smeg of an ending in all my life. They completely went off the rails and just rushed towards something, ANYTHING in what appeared to be raw desperation. It would be like if this review started talking about fire ants or something. Absolutely crazy and pointless. But again, it's well worth watching and deciding for yourself. Do this if you're a big movie fan or sci-fi connoisseur. You'll be glad you watched it. Just don't expect too much.… Expand
