(Je-gyun Yun's) epic, silly tidal-wave melodrama follows the template of the Western disaster opus to the letter. Go to Full Review

Roland Emmerich had to be behind Tidal Wave, right? Go to Full Review

... if this South Korean blockbuster... has anything to teach us, it's that the only thing cheesier than American disaster flicks is foreign disaster flicks. Go to Full Review

KJ P @RT76254863 4d Poor script writing. Scattered story lines. Bali tsunami was 2004… and this movie 2009 tsunami is just happen no brain… green screen effect looks before 2000 Disaster not happen till late, once happen disappointed with the poor effects… Cheap jokes everywhere People die without mercy See more Chad C @RT77397827 04/02/2025 Poor plot and bad acting. Lots of cliches combined with severe overacting, literally from the very first scene. This is an action movie of sorts, but more than an hour is devoted toward the lead-up and story development -- which is pretty bad. I found it boring and not very interesting. I recommend skipping to the point where the earthquake begins, as the action/tidal wave part is pretty cool. It contains cliches and bad acting as well, but it's the fun sort. Note that I watched the American version of this movie entitled "Tidal Wave", with Korean audio and English subtitles. I give Haeundae (Tidal Wave) 2/5 stars.
