"It was about time Scandinavia made its first disaster movie, and the Norwegian tsunami thriller The Wave (Bolgen) makes up for the long wait. Spectacular scenery of fjords and craggy, snow-capped peaks proves as beautiful to look at as it is deadly, when a mountain crumbles in a massive rockslide and creates a cataclysmic tsunami"
