The 5th wave on blu ray
#The 5th wave on blu ray full#
The 5th Wave begins with a great first third that gives a lot of promise in the premise, but the next two-thirds lets it down, partly because it’s full of ideas we’ve seen before and for which nothing new is added. With the army getting stupidly trigger-happy and Cassie getting separated from her brother, as he’s bussed off to a fortified camp, she’s left alone to fend for herself in a post-apocalyptic wasteland, but who can you trust when you can’t trust anyone?Ĭassie (Chloë Grace Moretz) tries to fend off a sniper. Initiially, Cassie (Chloë Grace Moretz, who came to the fore by saying ‘motherfucker’ in the Kick Ass films when she was still in short trousers – a strong insult from a child being something that worked for a number of people, but which completely passed me by) tells the tale of the waves, in flashback, until her family, including Dad, Oliver ( Ron Livingston, from the brilliant Office Space), and brother, Sam ( Zackary Arthur), get to the refugee camp where around 300 other people are currently living.

except when it refers to the boyband “5ive”. Yes, you get the feeling they only really needed three of them and they’ve just embelished the number required because five sounds good.

The plan for the 3rd is to infect as many people as possible with an airborne bird flu virus and the 4th is to take over all human bodies still alive. Why “The 5th Wave”? Well, the first wave was to take away all our power sources (wot no internet?), then the 2nd was to destroy all towns and cities. The 5th Wave is another of those ‘end of the world’ sci-fi dramas, this being at the behest of aliens, referred to as “The Others”, but I do like all of this sort of nonsense.
