Best movie ever!

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

One reviewer just did a retell of the whole script. Pathetic! Usually I check out a movie on IMDB before viewing it. This one I put on without checking it out beforehand. I guessed the scores to well above what has been awarded to it. As one who is not a fan of SciFi I actually enjoyed the movie. The acting was very convincing. The storyline kept me involved throughout. Although aimed at a teenage audience our adult daughter informed us she had already seen it as well as reading the book. There is enough variety to appeal to older audiences and I'd you like kids then you will enjoy the youth. There is a twist or two along the way and the movie ends on a reasonable note without closing off the story or leaving you up in the air. It makes you think as well. It is not mindless alien rubbish. Some critics are too harsh and not even able to substantiate giving it shockingly low scores. I think seven is a fair score even if you are not a teen!

A great movie idea, but with awkward making. The film makes the people say, it sucks so bad... But I think that if just there was more concentration and vision for brilliance and success in the audience's feelings and emotions. These emotions and feelings, which were destroyed by the awfull play between the scenes and the bad made screenplay. Also the direction was crashed, literaly.

...was the motto of "fingershooting" during the kick-off meetings of the US company I used to work for.It came to my mind because most of this movie was as stupid as those brainwashing-style meetings.It's a teen movie -> fair enough. It's a catastrophe movie -> fair enough. It features a lot of children -> fair enough.But almost all action being completely predictable, the most important and featured moments is a Twilight-style teen love story, terrible inconsistencies every single minute, child soldiers in post-apocalyptic US, full make up when there is no electricity or running water - and similar things spoiling one's experience movie most of the time makes this one a below-average experience even on Netflix.And yes, from the 5 waves the 3rd doesn't exist. Awkward

Skies Are Falling meets that much-more-decent post-apocalyptic film with Saorse Ronin in it and makes for 1hr52mins of absolutely pants viewing. One-dimensional characters, a downright silly plot, cliche after cliche after cliche and Chloe pouting her way through the least believable teen romance ever.Honestly, unless you're 12 (and haven't seen all the better rehashings of the same plot) don't even bother.
