Coma

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.

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

This is my first Russian movie and I must say, this is worth watching. The visuals of the movie is awesome and mesmerising at the same time. Yet,It feels like the concept is taken for ''Inception'' and ''Matrix'' but it tried to show it in a different way. Overall,it is good, can't really complain.

The movie was a visual treat for all the sci fi lovers who do care about visuals more than anything. There are 2 alternate story lines that merge at one point in the movie. The movie came out as extremely new, refreshing and with breath taking details of what an alternate world could look like. The level of detail in CGI and the mix of reality with the concept of sci fi has been brilliant presented. Having said that ...

Clearly, the movie falls shy of good acting. The movie feels slow and bland to an otherwise thrilling concept mainly because the script! It does not seem to be written keeping actors in mind, rather it feels like someone imagined such a world without actors and had to force actors into the story line to build the world itself. Hence the dialogues don't feel that intense, the scenes with monsters seem rather shallow and don't turn you to the edge of the seat, there is not much of an emotional connection between the actors. Deaths of side actors don't really seem to matter and not really heart breaking. The 2 protagonists are rather poorly defined / their background could have been explored further.

However I clearly see a lot of potential here. The movie explores a lot of dimensions and the concept behind COMA's environment seems rather deep. I would suggest everyone to go watch it. I would say 5 for acting, 9.5 for Visuals and 9.5 for Concept, 7 for execution. I highly recommend this movie since what it looses to weak characters, gains for the execution of story lines, visuals and innovative direction Coma took.
