The 5th Wave is an amazing sci-fi movie packed with action, twists, and turns! The movie provides an interesting perspective to the concept of humans vs. aliens and how appearances can be deceiving. In the movie, aliens take over the Earth and live inside their human hosts. It’s nearly impossible to tell who’s an alien and who’s a human. These aliens are causing havoc around the world by unleashing extreme natural disasters! It was an incredible film, but at some parts, I felt as if there was key information missing and that the story was a bit vague. However, I would definitely recommend this movie to anyone who is a fan of aliens, natural disasters, and war movies. 4/5 stars @Ash_Grey of the Hamilton Public Library's Teen Review Board In my opinion, The 5th Wave is an action packed film with lots of suspenseful scenes! It was based on its book written by Richard Yancey which won the Red House Children’s Book Award in 2014. The movie was directed by J Blakeson and it follows Cassie Sullivan (played by Chloë Grace Moretz) who searches for her lost brother in a post-apocalyptic world being destroyed by alien life. Chloë was nominated as Choice Movie Actress: Sci-Fi/Fantasy at the Teen Choice Awards for her work in The 5th Wave. I would recommend the movie to teens because the storyline revolves around the mind of a teen; the audience would easily be able to put themselves in the main character's shoes. The 5th Wave also includes Nick Robinson and Alex Roe who portray the characters Ben Parish and Evan Walker. I believe the actors gave the scenes realism because I felt immersed in specific moments when watching the film. I would rate the movie 4.5/5 stars because I definitely enjoyed it; I’ve rewatched it numerous times! I found it very enjoyable and there are various memorable scenes throughout. @BookwormHS of the Hamilton Public Library's Teen Review Board Are you into thriller and action well then I suggest you to watch The 5th Wave!
