The Last Wave

There is no use watching one episode and rubbishing it as at least 3 of the "reviewers" have done.

This show is a bit slow at times and some of the acting isn't perfect and can be a bit tedious, but in the end it is a good story. Maybe it is not up to the standard of Les Revenants, but it is still worth persevering and watching it to the end.

The idea behind the story is not new, humans are stuffing with nature all the time, nature is striking back and there have to be sacrifices.

I like French shows, they are simple straight forward and entertaining, this one is no exception.

If you get it, you will like it, if you don't, sorry but you are better off watching Hollywood bang bangs and writing 1 star reviews.

7/10 for me, and I would probably watch it again.

This is by no measure essential viewing. However, it is an easy and quite compelling watch. There's a bit of an different scenario going on but the easy for themselves by not explaining anything and definitely not giving any answers so the narrative just goes along at it's own pace and without the obstacle of having to have any final revelation or resolution.

But, if you are looking for an Eco-warning drama that is not to taxing yet keeps you interested in it's little intricacies then this is for you. The characters are a little wooden and their portrayal not always the most natural but in a series that is not meant to be realistic I don't suppose that matters.

Six episodes, well produced, that will just about keep your interest... dive in

I enjoyed this unexpected gem. At times, the pace of the movie I found a bit slow but overall I must admit the story kept me interested. I thought the acting was fine - maybe at times overacted by some in the cast but hey, as far as TV mini series I've seen far worse. This piece managed to maintain interest, I found the various subplots interesting and unlike other reviewers, I didn't consider the inhabitants of this small coastal town boring at all. Perhaps a bit soap operaish however, I'd recommend this as great light-entertainment viewing.

Found this one quite by accident. I really enjoyed the story line, loved the characters and was hooked from the first episode. Watched all 6 in one day. Loved it!!

Not being French and relying subtitles, I was hooked from the word go and there has to be something in it for me to continue watching. If the acting was that bad then I wouldn't watch it, but there were moments when you forgave a few things and I blame the director for that. The director of any movie/series, is the most important person and if he lets bad acting fly in, then it's his rep that's on the line. The story has good premise, there is a little over acting in some parts, but you let that go, with a roll of the eyes. There are moments where the 'pause is too long' and times you want to strangle the script writer with some of the dialogue, (subtitle translation) but you are drawn in to the story and you forgive these things. The acting was fine, the story good, and leaves you with a sense that there would be another season, or happy with the ending as is. I watch a lot of movies and series, and I can tell you that the ratings of many of these are incredible, and as for this show, I think a 7 is fair. I found it good, and it kept me watching... isn't that what is all about.
