The Wave Ratings & Reviews
Algo Más Que Cine
Dionar Hidalgo
A bold feminist musical that embraces ambiguity, exploring trauma, consent, and collective action without easy answers. Visually striking and ethically charged, The Wave thrives in its risks, even when it falters.
Emol.com
Agustín Pérez
A portrait of a historical moment painted with music, vivid colors and dissonances strong enough to distract from the full picture. The team handles the format well, though they don't always hit the tone they're aiming for, leaving mixed impressions.

David Cuevas
Essentially, "The Wave" is the reverse of "Emilia Pérez."
The Hollywood Reporter
Lovia Gyarkye
Aesthetic flourishes abound, which make it an entertaining viewing experience, but one does wish that the narrative was a touch more complex.

Alex Billington
It's an empowering movie about women standing up, fighting back, and never giving up until there is change. A magnificent creation! This shook me up & left me in awe.
The Playlist
Chase Hutchinson
"La Ola" is far from perfect, often losing sight of its broader ideas for less well-executed narrative beats that don't always cohere, but it still finds a tune where it counts.

Ben Kenigsberg
For all its energy and color, "The Wave" is hardly perfect; it has way too many endings, for a start, seemingly having lost touch with exactly what message it wants to send viewers out with. But it's also hard to dislike.
Variety
Guy Lodge
Even at its most formally playful, the film is marked by an earnestness of tone that makes it feel like work, especially given a two-hour-plus runtime that exposes the repetitiveness of its rhetoric and the sparseness of its drama.
