The Wave (2008) - 107 min

The Wave (German: Die Welle) is a German thriller film directed by Dennis Gansel.
Starring Jürgen Vogel, Frederick Lau, Max Riemelt & Jennifer Ulrich.
During the school's project week teacher Rainer Wenger attempts to instruct his students about the dangers of fascism and autocracy, stages a bold experiment to show how easily such ideas can originate. Unfortunately the students take the experiment seriously and started causing trouble.
The Wave is a stunning film that really does manage to convey the power of an Autocracy and how someone could be caught up in it. The film became more and more interesting as it progresses and messages conveyed by the film were crystal clear. The direction was good and got some brilliant performances. Overall, it's a must watch.
Verdict: Great
