The party chat and the relationship between the eight characters at the beginning made me dizzy. The black screen and jittery footage every few minutes made me wonder if this is really a high-definition version instead of a TC version. Check the ratings or endure it and watch it, the plot begins Uncontrollable development into horror films, I was scared to pee several times. There is no doubt that this kind of brain-burning film needs to be watched a second time, and then many details are exposed.
The story is set in a period of time when the comet swept across the earth. A lot of strange things happened in the gathering of eight friends. The phone screen suddenly shattered, the signal disappeared, and then a key turning point occurred, and the power of the whole street was interrupted. Except for another house two blocks away, Hugh insisted on going out to see the situation, so the parallel worlds began to correlate, and people who walked into the dark area could never return to their original rooms.
Let's sort out the character relationships first. The eight people are divided into four groups, Emily and Kevin, Hugh and Beth, Lee and Mike, Amir and Laurie. The plot follows the perspective of the heroine Emily.
The heroine's phone screen shattered during the drive, and random events were already being selected. The movie was 4 minutes and 50 seconds long, and the first key subjective choice was made. Ketamine or cheese, and cheese was unanimously chosen, so there was a later Chat at the dinner table. The Finnish story Emily mentioned during the chat is also a hint that after the comet passed, some people lost their memory, and a woman called the police and said, "The man in my house is not my husband, I killed my husband yesterday, but now he stand before me." The weird atmosphere began, and the conversation between Kevin and Laurie at this time made people feel that there seemed to be a big gap between their memories, and it was likely that the correlation had occurred.
At 16 minutes and 10 seconds, the power went out, and blue was chosen among the three kinds of light sticks. This is also the code name of the heroine's most original room: Room 1 with blue light sticks. At this time, the houses two blocks away had lights. Out of curiosity, everyone left the room. When they came back, the cups on the table were broken (no one found this detail), indicating that they had arrived in another space. house, code-named Room 2. At this time, Hugh mentioned that his brother had told him that everyone should stay in the room when the comet passed by, and he should try his best to contact his brother, so he insisted on going to the lighted house to inquire about the situation, Hugh and Amir went out again this room. Mike went to check the engine because of the sound outside, Mike left room 2, Mike came back has been replaced. Hugh and Amir also returned at this time, Hugh was injured in the head, and Amir brought back a box in another room. Just when everyone was confused, Hugh decided to write a note and go to the house just now. When he opened the door, he found that the same note appeared at the door. The injured Hugh chose the cloth between the cloth or the Bundy Band-Aid, which is equivalent to doing it again. a marker. Open the box brought back by Amir. The box is filled with photos of table tennis rackets and everyone. The back of each photo is marked with random numbers. When the hostess researched these photos, she found that the handwriting of the numbers was written by herself:
Lee 1 , Hugh 1, mike1, Laurie 2, beth4, emily4, amir5, kevin6 Red
33 minutes, Mike, Kevin, Laurie, Emily left room 2 again, and in the street and another space with red light sticks They met themselves (the soundtrack is so terrifying), and both of them ran back to the room in shock (and I was also frightened), and it was obvious that they must have returned to a new room, Room 3. In order to find out the reason, everyone was going to look for relevant theories in the book. Hugh and Kevin went out to get the book in the car. Hugh and Kevin came back and were changed again. The theory in the book leads to the core theory of the whole movie: Schrödinger's cat, quantum theory.
[Erwin Schrödinger's Cat is a thought experiment proposed by Austrian physicist Erwin Schrödinger in 1935. In this thought experiment, the cat would be in a superposition of life and death due to the random nature of previous events. According to the decoherence theory, cats cannot always be in the superposition state of survival and death. Due to the influence of the environment, a decoherence effect will soon occur, and cats will be in the classical statistical state of survival or death. In 1957, Hugh Everett proposed the many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics. When the box was opened, the cat's living and dead states continued, but decohered from each other. In other words, when the box is opened, the entanglement state of the observer and the cat is split into two branches: the observer looks at the dead cat in the box, and the observer looks at the live cat in the box. But due to the decoherence of the living and dead states, there is no effective information exchange or interaction between them. When the observer opens the box, the observer becomes entangled with the cat. Observer states corresponding to the live and dead states of the cat are thus formed separately. Each observer state is entangled with the cat, so "observation of cat state" and "cat state" correspond to each other. Quantum decoherence ensures that there is no interaction between the different results. The same quantum decoherence mechanism is also important for consistent histories interpretation. In this interpretation, only "dead cats" or "live cats" can be part of the history of consistency. From "Wikipedia"]
"A fraction of a second, a reality can be created" In this time of constant choice, an infinite number of realities have been created. Mike sees himself drunk in the other room and wants to secretly use his affair with Beth to threaten Hugh in the other room to stop him from going to the car to get the book and stop this from happening. At 46 minutes, the heroine heard Beth ask Lee where the bottle was bought from. This question has been answered at the very beginning. At this time, the heroine realized for the first time that she was no longer in the original room, and that she had become an intruder. entrants. At 47 minutes and 50 seconds, a detail appeared. The opened box contained microwave gloves, so Room 3 was the room marked with microwave gloves. Intruders from another room, Hugh and Amir, escaped room 3 with boxes.
After 56 minutes, the power went out again, and there was a sound of the car window being smashed outside. The hostess followed the army out of room 3 again. The hostess walked to her car to get the ring. Kevin came over. Kevin couldn't answer the hostess' question. The heroine realizes that this Kevin and herself are not in the same space, the heroine hurried back to the room, at this time it was a new room No. 4, Hugh and Amir suddenly came back and told about their going to another room, Hugh headed to the state Di's Band-Aid, the note that didn't match, the difference between the intruders was obvious this time, but the others for Mao had no more doubts after the two of them explained a few words. Everyone began to think of ways to mark their houses for identification. Hugh proposed to use sieves, six sieves, photos with colored markers to mark numbers and random objects into the box. The moment the box was created, there were infinite numbers. The creation of parallel spaces. The random item in room 4 is a coaster. The hostess once again confirmed that it was different from the number written at the beginning and found that the red number turned green. The 3 that was not there was generated, and the hostess found the same room. Except for Beth and Lee, who never left, everyone else is an intruder: as long as people pass through the dark area, they will be randomly assigned to infinite parallel spaces like a roulette wheel.
Because of Beth, everyone started arguing. In the chaos, the heroine walked out of the room and found the same note, and decided to leave the room to find her original room. In each house on the street, she saw different scenes, arguing , Annoyed, killed each other, and finally stayed in front of the window of a room. She saw the peace inside and decided to stay in this room to replace herself in this room. From the broken car window, everything was true last night! After the comet disappears, the coherence no longer occurs, and the last call seems to indicate that the two heroines from different spaces have survived!
The film is called "coherence", and it is related, that is, on the night of the comet, parallel worlds that they did not want to do interact with each other due to the comet. And the parallel world will be generated as long as the choice is made. There are several prominent choice points in the movie, cheese or ketamine, three colors of light sticks, sieves, random items placed in the box, so the parallel space is Divide infinitely.
There are a few things to note throughout the movie:
1. As long as the person who leaves the house cannot return to his original room in the selection of the roulette wheel. This probability is extremely low and therefore ignored.
2. Every time you go out and return to the house, you will not encounter the same self, and the number is always consistent. It may also be because the director presents one of these possibilities with the film.
3. Coherence occurred very early, but no one found it because there was no obvious mark, until finally more and more marks made everyone recognize their identity.
4. The peaceful scene in the last room shows that the parallel space has always existed. Emily in this room made the correct decision at that time and was not replaced by a substitute.
5. The last phone call is actually contrary to the theory. In theory, two people in different spaces will form a unique form after decoherence, and there will be no two heroines, so what is the situation?
Just like the butterfly effect, all choices are a struggle of our minds. After each fork in the road, our life goes in a different direction. In reality, we will not be the best or the worst. a possibility. The biggest feeling this movie gave me was that it was another movie that was misunderstood because of its translation. In short, watching the movie and learning a little physics knowledge by the way, it feels good!
