Reviews

Slashfilm -
Carl W. Lucas‘s script is never quite as smart or profound as it thinks it is, but it does manage to tap into an inherent sweetness – an underlying sense of humanity and acceptance that counter-balances all the chaos and occasional bursts of violence.

Variety -
This fever dream feels more derivative than distinctive, entertaining and eventful as it is. Still, it’s a well-cast, well-crafted stab at something offbeat.

|
The Film Stage -
The Wave is more interested in supplying a good time and that should be enough for some.

Polygon -
The artistry at work in The Wave isn’t enough to keep the film from caving in under its middling story.

Los Angeles Times -
While Long gives it his trademark amiable best and Klabin and longtime collaborator Patrick Lawler cook up a heady cocktail of lively though budget-conscious visual effects, at the end of the day the Carl W. Lucas script feels more like a concept pitch than a fully-plotted proposition.
