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.

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

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..

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.

A truly groundbreaking visual extravaganza but the character development was pretty poor and you don't really get to know or care about any of them which is a shame.

The storyline is well put together but lacks the human element and feels much like the CGI; artificial but still it is a film for every Sci-Fi fan who will not fail to be awestruck by the visuals and for once the CGI does make the film and overcomes a lot of the poorer elements of the film.
