The 5th Wave

The 5th Wave is a forgettable attempt at a sci-fi dystopian thriller, suffering from a recycled plot and a script that does little to elevate it. The story lacks originality, with predictable twists and rushed pacing that does not allow for proper character development. The first act barely builds any emotional connection before jumping straight into the second act, making the entire setup feel ho...

**Spoiler Alert** The ending made me laugh. I don't want to spoil anything, but it's nice that you mention hope saving you in the end, even though the aliens are still present according to the ending. 😂

"The 5th Wave" is a science-fiction thriller directed by J Blakeson and starring Chloe Grace Moretz, Matthew Zuk, and Gabriela Lopez. The film is based on the novel of the same name by Rick Yancey and was released in 2016.

This is so utterly terrible, I don't know where to begin. The most obvious? The writing is some of the worst I've ever experienced. Chloë and Maika, what were you thinking?? Please get better agents.

The 6th wave was the wave of people leaving the theater during the movie.

It's the kind of film where after the opening scene, there is a 40 minute flashback sequence of pure awkward exposition. It's the kind of film that manages to avoid being "offensively bad" by by the skin of its teeth, o...

Here we go again, another female empowered teen movie. HW seem to be literally pumping this garbage out for the last few years. Is it any wonder why movie sales are down with garbage like this on the shelf? Designed to be for all those teens who like the idea of blood, but really don't want to see it (think twilight, hunger games etc). Save your money and 1h50m of your time and skip. If you reall...

> Another teen film trilogy, alien invasion theme on a roll. The 80s teen films were different, (like the recent one 'Turbo Kid') especially those I watched when I was growing up in the late 90s and early 2000s. But now most of them are dystopian action-adventure-fantasy/sci-fi themes, and obviously trilogies with high end graphics. I won't blame for that, the time has come for a change, the mo...
