79/100 4 couples having a dinner party, during the close encounter flyby of a comet, become victims to a series of bizarre events. 'Bizarre' is the keyword here as this total mind f**k had my wife and me completely confused and totally entertained throughout. Filmed in an intimate manner, with hand held cameras, we become participants to the dinner party fully engaging us into their confusion and distress. Incredibly intelligent writing made everyone's reaction and level of angst spot on. Even with no real resolution, the ending is priceless. Awesome stuff! -- DrNostromo.com

Coherence is a fascinating sci-fi thriller that really messes with your head, in the best way. The story is smart, simple, and incredibly engaging. Watching the group slowly unravel as they realize they’re caught in a web of parallel realities was both tense and exciting. The twists kept me guessing, and the way everything ties together at the end made it feel like a puzzle worth solving. That said, the cinematography was a big letdown for me. I get that it’s a low-budget movie, but that doesn’t excuse the constant shaky camera and out-of-focus shots. It made some scenes frustrating to watch, especially when the story was so good. A proper camera stand and better lenses could’ve made this a much more enjoyable experience. The shaky style might’ve been intentional to add to the tension, but for me, it just felt sloppy and distracting. Overall, I really enjoyed the movie’s concept and execution—minus the visual issues. Coherence shows you don’t need a big budget to tell a great story, but a little more effort on the cinematography could’ve elevated it to a whole new level. Still, it’s worth watching if you love mind-bending, thought-provoking films. Just be ready for the shaky ride.

Superficially, the story is simple: a dinner-party among 4 couples of friends, that just happens to be on a night that a comet is blazing closer to Earth. Someone mentions a curious set of events during an earlier comet passage, about a century before, and how that affected a local population. Early on you can spot some slight "incoherences" coming from how characters exchange dialogues, and from the middle on, you start feeling spooked, as you start putting things together. Be prepared for a movie that you will have to have the pleasure of re-watching 2-3x, in order to grasp every single detail and meaning contained in this mind-boggling experience. What is more rewarding in all this rich and masterful script/ plot, is that it speaks so loud and clearly about how we lead our own particular lives and how we get where we are (or not...?). One way or another, you will look back on your own important decision moments in life and start wondering "what if...". A definite must. 9/10

**Overall : The greatest movie you've never heard of.** Coherence kept popping up on lists of best sci-fi films which was surprising because I had never seen a trailer or heard anything about it. I found it free to stream somewhere, so I checked it out, and I am so glad I did! What I found was a very low-budget film with a cast you have never heard of but a premise and script that were so well executed that this movie blew my mind! The panic and anxiety of the characters as they try to understand what is happening around them is told with such brilliance that the audience is lost, intrigued, overwhelmed, and bought in all at the same time. I'm telling you - watch this movie!

If you have an affinity for mind-bending riffs on quantum physics, you'll enjoy "Coherence." Most of these types of stories take the concepts of quantum mechanics (entanglement, superposition, etc.) which exist at the most microscopic--level (electrons, particles) and posit that similar effects could happen at the macro-level (real-world people and physical objects). "Coherence" takes a nightmare dinner party scenario (ala "The Invitation") and applies the quantum concept of coherence and "many-worlds interpretation" (or multiple universes) that is triggered by a passing comet. It's better to come into this with as little info as possible to enjoy the unwinding of the mystery. While its a bit of a slow burn at first, the filmmakers really nail the ending.
