    • Trivia
      Sequel to The Wave (2015).
    • Goofs
      When they say that from a quake of magnitude 6 to 8, it's not a factor of two but 1 million, it's wrong. 1 unit of magnitude difference is 32 times. So here a magnitude 8 is 1,024 times more powerful than a magnitude 6, not 1 million. That would be a difference of 4 magnitudes.

    Not even close to its prequel!
    It's sad but true. The wave was amazing not just because of its suspense, but also because its characters'actions made sense. And what makes this one even worse is that they are the same characters only stupid! I didn't mind the slow build to the the actual disaster; what annoyed me the most was how everyone was lame and slow and just unbelievably wrong when it comes to their reactions! Scenes where they're supposed to be running for their lives, but instead having melodramatic moments. Human instincts don't work that way or else there would never be any survivors in any life-threatening situation ever! It was so irritating to watch them behave this way after the amazing performance of the previous film! It was a disappointment.

    • Is this connected to Bølgen (2015)? Do you need to see Bølgen (2015) The Wave, first before seeing this?
