Movie Reviews

Kaplan vs. Kaplan - 9/10 by Jeanne KaplanAlthough I am growing extremely weary of these teen novels being turned into lengthy productions, "The 5th Wave" is not as bad as I was expecting.
Boston Herald - 8/10 by James VerniereLow rent knockoff The 5th Wave is boring teenage wasteland.
USA Today - 8/10 by Brian TruittThe 5th Wave finds a way to make the most of Moretz’s talents, with the emotionality she showed in If I Stay and the utter physical chutzpah of her Kick-Ass films.
One Guy's Opinion - 8/10 by Frank SwietekPlays like a Disney Channel version of 'Invasion of the Body Snatchers' or 'The Invaders,' the sixties Quinn Martin ABC potboiler inspired by it.
Tri-City Herald - 8/10 by Gary WolcottMust've been in the right mood for teen-focused alien-invasion-end-of-the-world-movie. What will be a trilogy of movies -- or more -- is off to a better start than its peers.
Blu-ray.com - 8/10 by Brian OrndorfUnfortunately, the fate of the world can wait when cute guys are around.
Tribune News Service - 7/10 by Katie WalshAt times, "The 5th Wave" comes close to feeling like Paul Verhoeven's great propaganda parody "Starship Troopers," but this film is sorely lacking in irony - if there is any camp or humor to be found (and there is some) it's mostly unintentional.
Sacramento News & Review - 7/10 by Jim LaneIt's just another Hunger Games/Divergent/Maze Runner clone, with the heroine torn between two lovers.
Cinesnark - 7/10 by Sarah MarrsIt's the craziest of the YA dystopia movies by far, taking the premise of "child murder as entertainment" to new, un-dreamed-of heights.
NPR - 7/10 by Andrew LapinIt soon becomes apparent that these spunky teens, no matter how much they flirt with each other while brandishing firearms, are only running themselves in circles.
