Fantastic Fest: The Wave (2015)

Big Disaster movie from Norway.  Now disaster movies most of the time seem to be a disaster.  Not this one.  This one is done right.  It works and plays like a big Hollywood production movie.  Except the effects are better here.  The story is a typical Hollywood story.  A tsunami comes into a Norwegian town and people have literally only 10 minutes to find a safe place and or be in a higher altitude area.  Lots of suspense.  Very entertaining.  Would make a decent double feature with Force Marjeure (for those who really enjoyed that one). 
7 out of 10.
