n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

A great movie idea, but with awkward making. The film makes the people say, it sucks so bad... But I think that if just there was more concentration and vision for brilliance and success in the audience's feelings and emotions. These emotions and feelings, which were destroyed by the awfull play between the scenes and the bad made screenplay. Also the direction was crashed, literaly.

I would recommend this film to anyone seeking adventure, drama, and action in a film. This film is really the first of its kind it includes all types of techniques from the actors and also the fact about camera focuses on the emotions of the characters which emphasizes what the film is about and links in still with the main story line. This movie have a lot of similarities with the film "Divergent". Both movies have been based on a society that is divided into different groups. For example, Divergent society was divided in five fractions: Abnegation the selfless, Dauntless the brave, Erudite the intelligent, Candor the honest, and Amity the peaceful. On the other hand, "The 5th Wave" was divided into two groups: the normal people and people who have diseases. This movie is about four waves deadly attacking Earth, leaving every state and every country ruined. The aliens drain energy and create diseases that effected millions of people and died. The main character in this movie is Cassie. Cassie lost her mother by the disease. The Army came to take the people to the army base and that's how Cassie father died, army people gunned him and others down. The survivors was transferred to the army base on a school bus. When Cassie left the bus to get her brother stuffed animal the bus was driving off, Cassie was running trying to catch up with the bus but she didn't make it. Cassie goes on adventure to look for her little brother named Sam that was left on a bus. While Cassie looks for her little brother Sam, Sam is at the military base being trained by the military to fight the enemy. You can not tell whose the enemy or not because they all looked the same.

It´s nice to have nice hair during the invasion. If you want to kill apocalypsist movie right from the start, just put all the characters living in a forest, surviving and looking like they have endless suply of hair products??? Is it because people don´t want to see dirty or the actors don´t like to be seen as "ungly"? ....But they keep selling this to the netflix, cos it is the best, and I´m over my teens, so ... ..and why they cut Thors hair?

I didn't come in to this movie with high hopes. However, for the first couple of 10-15 minutes I was drawn in by the opening narration of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd wave. Then the 4th wave is announced and everything goes down-hill.Not going in to the two largest plot holes I can't help but feel ruined this movie for me. This movie has special effects that looks like they are from 10 years ago, the acting is at the best sub-par and no real tension is built up to make us care for the characters.Now to the plot holes:1. The EMP. The 1st wave was an EMP, strong enough to wipe out all electricity and render machines useless. This is all fine and when the military shows up everyone is struck by the fact that they have working cars. This is fine, perhaps they are old cars that don't have any electrical parts to speak off (for some far-fetched reason). However, then they end up at the military base where everything is lit up by electricity, and there's not a person that question this! You might say "Hey, perhaps they had protected wireing, that wasn't hit by the EMP". To that I say bullshit! Why didn't they military use electrical equipment way earlier during the 1st, 2nd or 3rd wave to greatly help out the population then?3. Child Soldiers Why would you prefer to send in child soldiers to fight the infections if you have an army? The soldiers should have alot more training, and in any scenario the children should be protected to preserve the species. Yet there's not a soul that questions why children are sent in to fight instead of soldiers? It just oozes of corruption and at the scene where they find out what the neck trackers really do and they say "they thought they could manipulate us because we're children", you just wanna go "Yes! But it's sort of deserved if you are not going to use your brains".
