The Wave (2015)
6/10
Just for the landscapes it's worth a watch
17 August 2016
There is not much to say about Bolgen (The Wave). It is what it is. With a title like that you know immediately what's going to happen so it's just waiting for it to happen. I thought the movie was at his best in the first part, so before the tsunami. The acting was good, the scenery was superb, and then you just wait for the catastrophe to happen. And once it happened the movie gets a bit overdone. I mean by that that there are a lot of inaccuracies. And no I'm not a tsunami expert but I'm quite sure there would be no fires everywhere after the tsunami passed by. Neither could you close a door once a ton of water runs like a river through a corridor. It's little things like that that make it exaggerated. So all in all it's an okay movie to watch once, certainly for the beautiful Norwegian landscapes.
