Review of The 5th Wave (2016) by Madmaxfuryroad — 23 Jan 2016

I can't believe I'm actually saying this, but in a field of crowded dystopian films, The 5th Wave is one of the very best. From the first scene, I couldn't take my eyes off the screen. Chloe Grace Moretz was fantastic in this film as well as her boyfriend.

I felt like there were some pretty good intense disaster sequences and the film just went really well. The plot is a bit predictable and the last 30 minutes were pretty slow, but that first hour just really blew me away.

Most of the people who say this movie is bad or at least not entertaining probably didn't go see the film, because the film might have its flaws but everyone must admit they were entertained for at least a small bit.

I've never read the book, and I probably won't but I'm dying to see if they make a sequel.
