First of all let me just say that I am baffled by anyone giving it 1/10. I have no idea what those people have seen but it certainly wasn't this movie. Depending on your taste in movies I can understand people rating somewhere between 6 and 10. But ratings lower than that seem to come from people that truly hated this on a personal level, for god knows what reason. The only thing I can think of that would cause people to really dislike Causality is their short attention spans. They seem to struggle to focus on anything that doesn't have some action, care chases, fights, etc. Every five minutes. In a addition they seem to get lost when the storyline is not simple to follow. When I normally see very polarizing reviews on IMDB, I know I am in for a treat. Most of the time one of the main reasons for this huge divide is that some people just cannot handle slow, atmospheric movies. This movie seems to be no different. If it comes to the movie itself it is certainly not perfect. But it is a great thriller nonetheless. I love the fact that for the first half of it I was confused about what is actually going on and who are the main protagonists. And this is clearly done on purpose. The best part is that at the end everything makes sense. The direction was excellent as was acting. It's worth noting that the whole movie was done in one single shot. And this is not just a gimmick as it makes the whole experience very immersive. All in all a solid 8/10 from me. I was considering giving it 10/10 just to offset those ridiculous 1/10 but I decided to be better than this.

No pun intended - the movie tells a quite intriguing story. And yet it seems to focus more on the technical aspect of it (all being shot in one take - at least that is what it tells us). I did not check if that is true - nowadays you can make things look like they are being done in one long take, while you edit and cut at certain places. Again I do not think it is that important. It looks good for sure, but the movie may annoy you with the whole who did that and why did they do it. We also have a few red herrings - and may guess wrong a few times. Just to get a resolution that is quite ... well out there. The ending itself either is able to save the whole thing (again no pun intended) or kill it off (another pun?) ... it is going to depend on how you feel about the twist ... and the story ... who is likeable and who has earned the audiences sympathy you ask? That's a good one.
