Well, the young adult movie adaptation genre continues to percolate despite the farewell sentiments as demonstrated by hugely popular products meant to entice the teen scene such as the Twilight, Divergent, Maze Runner and The Hunger Games film series. Sure, why not tamper with a proven formula that guarantees all the right ingredients to tap into the angst-ridden world of young feminine empowerment set against a background of apocalyptic strife and undefined self-discovery? In director J Blakeson’s drippy and derivative dystopian drama The 5th Wave we are introduced to another similar sci-fi serving of a disillusioned heroine out to reflect...

> 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 movies have technical qualities and they know how to render them, but the stories are terrible. To me this was just an okay film. Felt like the action-adventure versions of 'The Host',...

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 really need to see it, in brief it's about a 16 year old girls world turned upside down by an 'alien' invasion when her...

It's like someone read _The Road_ and went "Oh hey, that was pretty good, I know how I can ruin it!". It's a worse _Hunger Games_ movie than even the last _Hunger Games_ movie was. 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, only because it is instead "embarrassingly bad". It's the kind of film that thinks it's going to get a sequel, so it resolves **nothing**, but...

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

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 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. The story is set in a world that has been devastated by a series of four catastrophic waves, including an electromagnetic pulse that destroys all electronics and a deadly virus that kills billions of people. The survivors are left to fend for themselves against an alien invasion, with no idea of when or how the fifth wave will come. The...

**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 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 hollow. Starting the movie with a scene from later in the story does not help either, as it fails to create any real suspense or curiosity. The directing feels uninspired, as if following a formula rather...
