Coma

"Koma (Coma)" is a weirdly watchable sci fi horror from Russia.

This is a strangely disconcerting watch. Its presentation of a reality bending dream world, is a little hard on the synapses, until you become accustomed to its quirky nuances.

That said, its convincing back story, decent characterisations and sustained action, mark this film out, as a worthwhile watch. It has a very subtle "hint" rather than twist in the end too, that adds a further note of reality questioning discordance, that's quite effective.

Definitely one to consider, if you want a departure from conventional sci fi fare.

7/10.

Before I say anything, watch this movie. If you are someone who is impressed by the world that a movie built around than this movie is a great one. My only issue with it is they didn't take advantage of this unprecedented world. If Marvel had any hand in this movie, I could see them making a huge franchise out of it. Still, watch it. It is something you have never seen before.

Story plot, although it feels like a mash up of inception and matrix. Probably a bit too long or slow at times but nice effects and plot twists.

Everything was impressive... Except that the voice-over was a little bit cheesy... But guess watching this movie in it's original language would be superb..

Not sure if this is based on a novel (it would make sense), but it does look fantastic! Visually speaking the movie isa definite A+++ (add more plusses if you feel the need to). Story wise it does have a few flaws and acting/character wise you may feel a few bumps along the road too. Having said that, the movie does work more than nicely.

You get thrown in right from the start, not knowing what is happening, like the main character, but you get it fairly quickly. If you are into Science Fiction, you will be into this. The movie gets a bit cliche towards the end and maybe even a bit predictable for some. Still enough to wrap your mind around too and nice to see this coming from Russia
