Action. Thriller Even though awaited, no-one is really ready when the mountain pass of Åkneset above the scenic narrow Norwegian fjord Geiranger falls out and creates a 85 meter high violent tsunami. A geologist is one of those caught in the middle of it.

	Author	Review
United States	Deborah Young The Hollywood Reporter	"A thrilling ride as it hits every major genre note with a Norwegian accent (...) Uthaug and the screenwriters make the most of the unique location"	POS
United States	Peter Debruge Variety	"'The Wave' sticks mostly to the big-studio formula (albeit on a much smaller budget), introducing a handful of bland soon-to-be-victims before bombarding them with spectacular digital effects"	POS
