Coherence is an award-winning 2013 surreal psychological science fiction thriller film. It's about a passing comet causing life-changing alterations in the lives of a group of 8 friends who have gathered for a dinner party. I enjoyed seeing Nicholas Brendon, who played Xander in the Buffy television series. I watched it on Tubi. It's also on Crackle.

The Guardian has a positive review. Hollywood Reporter calls it a "smart, spooky, low-budget sci-fi shocker". Roger Ebert's site begins their review saying, ""Coherence" is proof that inventive filmmakers can do a lot with a little."
Because this blog does not consist of a single focus topic I chose the name Divers and Sundry where "Divers" means being of many and various kinds, and "Sundry" means consisting of a haphazard assortment of different kinds.
Looks interesting. It's a good thing I have an appointment with the eye doctor in a couple of weeks. I read the title as Conference. 😺
ReplyDeleteI need an eye appointment but I'm holding off for a while longer. Damn Covid!
Delete...a surreal psychological science fiction thriller film. That's a mouth full!
ReplyDeleteGenre-bending?
DeleteI'm also a big fan of Nicholas Brendon because I LOVED Buffy and later, Angel. Joss Whedon really knew how to create hits.
ReplyDeleteIt's good to see him in other things :)
DeleteBTW, I missed you for T this week, dear.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I didn't have anything already scheduled, and the insomnia this week has been bad.
DeleteInteresting take with a dinner part and a comet. It's good when filmmakers think out of the box.
ReplyDeleteYes, something a bit different is always welcome.
DeleteWhy do these summaries always sound so far-fetched?
ReplyDeletebest... mae at maefood.blogspot.com
In fairness, this one _is_ far-fetched ;)
DeleteThis sounds good! Thanks! Valerie
ReplyDeleteI liked it.
DeleteThis sounds familiar but not sure if it is just similar to something else I've seen. Too many movies these past years since Netflix--LOL!
ReplyDeleteSo many movies! I've never even heard of most of them.
DeleteOh this sounds like a good one. I will try and watch it this weekend.
ReplyDeleteI hope you like it.
