Scanialara You won't be disappointed!

Raetsonwe Redundant and unnecessary.

Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

James I got into James Ward Byrkit's "Coherence" having heard it portrayed as intelligent (if low-budget) sci-fi, and am sorry to say that i found myself clockwatching at several points (not typical for me). All the more regrettable is that one of the reasons is the movie's putting me in mind of the 2009 British-Australian film "Triangle" which bears some resemblance in having a hot Melissa George wandering around a ship (and then back on land) with an axe, in a skimpy T-shirt, chasing herself; whereas here with "Coherence" we have a hot Emily Baldonu wandering around in a skimpy T-shirt with no axe, chasing herself... Admittedly, anomalous events in "Triangle" seem to be a time loop in which realities continually spring into existence and overlap, whereas in "Coherence" we seem to have repeat divergence into separate universes generated by a comet whose presence allows the realities to go on interacting with each other as they normally would not.But while "Coherence" focuses in on a suburban dinner party at night (and is staffed by not-very-well-known actors), "Triangle" has a pretty-deserted ship, with sun, sea and - significantly - seagulls. So maybe "Coherence" has better dialogue and is a bit more anchored in normality, but "Triangle" is more visually interesting and exciting and scary ... and (in my case, as in "reality" ... hopefully???) it CAME FIRST. All of that means that I'm being a bit unfair in comparing films, and that those with more limited sci-fi experience may indeed find "Coherence" a satisfying and novel watch; and it does OK with its premise, even if it is likely to lose most watchers on the detail, no matter how they try. But it is visually uninteresting, and hence a bit bland, and the gainsayers might always say: "why didn't everyone just lock their doors, stay in together, and sleep through to morning?" And there's no real answer to that...

ljournell-02940 If you are like me and wondering why this film has such good reviews, all i can do is implore you to watch it. It is waaayyyyyy better than the budget would seemingly allow and a very well done movie. The rewatch value on Coherence is off the charts. The script is the star here, the writing is smart and doesnt insult your intelligence. A deep mystery that lingers long after the movie is over. I highly recommend.

bgar-80932 Coherence is a low budget film that works pretty well. It makes you think and has some truly great moments. The dialogue seems pretty real as well for most of it. I don't think it's the most entertaining thing in the world but I'm glad I watched it. A comet passes over a group of 8 friends at a dinner party and somehow creates an alternate reality version of themselves at a different house down the street. They spend a lot of time trying to figure out what's going on and if they're in the right house etc. Problem is they were wrong and there's actually an infinite amount of versions of themselves. There's one scene in it where the blonde realizes her boyfriend isn't actually her boyfriend that is eerie and great. Basically she winds up figuring out a different versions of herself has a better life so she kills different versions of her and to try and take her life. Great for a 50,000 dollar budget but not overall great to me. Someone smarter than me could probably find things that didn't add up in the story too as I wasn't sure I understood it all, but it all seemed like it fit to me.

Aasemoon This could have been such a good movie, such a good story! It had a whole lot of potential, near the end I was really enjoying it. And then, suddenly, nothing. No real conclusion, no actual points made. It was like the movie was just cancelled in the middle. Such a shame!
