The Quake (2018) - A competent Norwegian Disaster Movie ( Oslo Destroyed by an Earthquake Scene)

- This is actually a sequel to The Wave (2015) movie that I really liked too.
The build up is perhaps too slow for too many people, but I have enjoyed the "there is something horrible about to happen" atmosphere of it. Visuals can rival those of Hollywood, but it also suffers from too many cut-in and shaky camera of "artificially" created frantic atmosphere, because I guess what we're looking at is not action-like or horrific enough otherwise (yeah I'm being sarcastic).
The biggest Hollywood sin - "escape death by a second, every second, for minutes in length" is not as prominent here (exclusively with the main characters, of course), but still present at times which is annoying. Again, I guess they though it wouldn't be thrilling enough otherwise. But that is a Sin that pretty much every "action" movie (yes, disaster movies are action movies too, just not getting shot at) is suffering with, so what am I complaining about?
Conveniently, I did my own edit with only the destruction of Oslo for you to watch, and a bit of the struggle that laid ahead for the main characters as a result of it. If you don't care about anything else, well this is it, almost all of it in terms of destruction.
Disclaimer, everything I mentioned as a flaw is just me nitpicking, because otherwise this is as good Disaster movie as they get (to date).
If you haven't seen it. Go for it! Or, maybe not, maybe you want to watch the Wave (2015) first, because it will be the same people, although in another different mega disaster (what are the odds huh?)
But you will not need to see the Wave (2015) first to understand what is going on or anything like that.
Although, the main character has PTSD from the last disaster and that could help a bit, or not.
I'm sure we will get to the Wave (2105) on this channel too (if RUclips permits) at some point.
Enjoy ;)!

Ok but when the woman's screams cut when she fell were just *chills*
Norwegian! ARE YOU FROM NORWAY!!!!!!!?????
The Wave is the prequel to this movie. You see Kristains PTSD manifest. I love this series.
There's one thing that royally irritates me about this scene. They had enough time to get to the elevator area, where they would've been save when the entire floor started shifting. I know that people act on instinct when in stressful situations, but it kinda baffles me how long they just sat there watching the building shift without doing anything to get to a safer area...
As you said, its actually quite likely when something this horrific happens out of nowhere, many people simply freeze in shock and disbelief. It's absolutely possible, and irritating watching it. But there is old saying: "After a battle, everyone is general" XD. I wouldn't be surprised too much if I myself did something stupid or failed to do something obvious in a stressful situation like this. I would like to think that I would be the guy pointing out to people on what to do, but perhaps my brain would reduce into vegetable as well :/ Might I never find out!
@@pibmovieclips True. I still like it, it's just one of those things that make you frustrated as hell when watching.
On another note, I'm excited for their upcoming disaster film. I do hope that they'll return to a more typical disaster movie formula with that one, since The Quake was more of a drama than anything else. Good nonetheless, but not really a disaster movie.
Were talking about WOMEN here 🤨
Elevator is not practical to use if they have a disaster like that.you get trapped if you do that.
@@victorialevy2882 Correct, but I'm pretty sure he's referring to get into the "elevator area" as this would be the "core" of each building, thus the strongest part, which should give you the best chance to survive.
That was.. Actually really scary to watch, i was so scared when the person fell off and didn't have anything to grab onto-
3:19 perfectly cut scream aiiiiiii-iii i.
I probably would have the same pitch myself as a man XD, goddamn this is one of my worst nightmares. I love heights, because it scares me so much :D.
I know that might not make any sense to most people, but if you stick around on the channel, there is actually a video coming up within a week that explains it all :D. It will be titled - movie that changed my life if you would be interested ;)
@@pibmovieclips grandma grab something No AAAAAA
@Nathaniel Max im not in lockdown
Muy buenas como se llama la película
А где перевод??😊😊
I love when their teaming just to save each other! That's what I want on real life teaming is the best way to save each other
It doesn't work in real life...in real life, everything depends on whether you white, black or brown...
Probs one of the only disaster movies that the characters have some brain in them..
@@kapatidtomas Yeah
@@angshusarma8331 Not in a real situation. People from all walks of life will have have helped each other during times of crisis. Thankfully there is more good people that will help and not care about your skin color.

I was rooting for the piano!
I was sad to see it going too :D, hope it managed the landing 10/10.
@@pibmovieclips Probably needs retuned after that.
@@AlanCanon2222 That it negligible, since the price of the that thing must have tripled in value due to the now famous status.
Insane to think an Earthquake like this would kill over 30% of Norway's population
how many is that 50
@@redskinjim i laughed so so hard on your comment .hahahaha
Probably more. They’d all be lining up to charge their EVs and get trapped.
@@redskinjim no 700 800k pepole
These were quite good special effects!
Unfortunately, those whom have been in collapsing skyscrapers and have firsthand experience didn't survive to advise the special effects designers...
I mean video evidence would be good enough, but thankfully, we have none of those (I'm not aware of skyscraper collapsing due to Earthquake). I'm not complaining, let's keep it that way :)
They don't need someone explaining to them what it's like inside a collapsing skyscraper, they just need to use logic. We never had a dinosaur tell us what the chixulub impact was like, yet we know how it went.
Love the nod to that scene with the breaking glass in The Lost World. Really tense.
SARAH DONT MOVE
"A competent Norwegian Disaster Movie" as a Norwegian, this title is the funniest ever!
I've been at that bar and can confirm *there are no kids allowed* - this is simply how far we go to stop minors from drinking.
I thought that you're about to tell me off XD. I stand by my words :)
@@pibmovieclips No worries, your words stands firm. 😉👍 Norwegians have low expectations when it comes to homegrown movies, but hey, things are getting better.
If you are not from Norway, you should check out the diastermovies "Tunnelen" (The Tunnel) from 2019 and The Wave from 2015. The wave is a result of a rockslide into a fjord, killing more or less everyone close by. Has happened before, will happen again.
Both were filmed here in my neighbourhood, The Tunnel no more than 10 minutes away, I know actors in both movies, but I have seen neither 😳🙄 yet.
They should be worth a look for some cool dramatic footage though.
Still, that title was bloody funny and so on the spot I would have thought you were a Norwegian. 😆👍
@@OhNoNotFrank I'm not, but I was genuinely surprised how well put together was this movie. But I must admit, I have seen the Wave (2015) first - as I mentioned in the description, which prompted me to look for more and found this one. But I didn't know there was another one! Looks fantastic, I'll definitely give it a go. thank you for the heads up!
@@pibmovieclips What has surprised us is the big interest from major production companies who wants to film in Norway, I guess it's because we have some spectacular places that are fairly easily accessable for an entire film crew. Apparently Tom Cruise has fallen in love with us, and filmed a big part of both Mission: Impossible - Fallout as well as the upcoming movie in the series here. According to the rumors they will be back to film the third M:I here as well.
You might find this interesting 😉👍:

@@OhNoNotFrank I just noticed this comment, RUclips will not give me all notifications all the time. But thank's for that, looked fantastic!
That first scene was one of the quietest destruction scenes I've ever seen.
Best & scariest disaster acting and special effects ever... well done!
one of my favourite things about this scene is the dissonance of the sound of the alarms at 1:04. it almost sounds like a part of the soundtrack, it's that creepy. oh, and the shot of the shockwave approaching julia. this movie messed me tf up lol
Tbh I think this is an annual thing at this point, 6 years ago we had «the wave», 3 years later we got «The quake» and now in October we’re having «Nordsjøen» (another disaster movie about oil Riggs collapsing and stuff)
Interesting, thx for the heads up!
I have to watch the third one!
@@serenitynow1364 I just checked and the international name for the new one is “The burning sea”
Fun fact:This movie made from Norway and 1:04 Norwegian eas alarm!
It gives me the chills
watching buildings destroyed is satisfying for me
In movies I hope :D, yeah, I'm the same.
Same. I'm strangely obsessed with it.
Same but i had many problems with buildings collapsing like those, When a building hits another building it should make a giant cloud of debris
…I hope I don’t hear from you on the news 😥
Play teardown to destroy bulidings yourself
i always wanted to see a disaster movie that took out Oslo, finally got it
just came upon a scene from The Wave and absolutely *LOVED* the movie!! Immediately decided to watch the whole film and fell in love with it even more! (favorite scene was when the mom killed that asshole dude with her legs)
I saw this video in my recommended and did not realize it was a freaking sequel to The Wave until I read the description! It made me jump in my seat when you said that! Love the points you made in the description too.
These Norwegian films are getting better and better every year!! its a real breath of fresh air seeing amazing CGI and movies that are not from Hollywood. (if I see another disaster movie based anywhere on America im gonna claw my eyes out)
I prefer watching the movie with no english subs, which I know is weird but it makes me appreciate the language and characters more.
Thanks for posting this video pal!
Thank you for your kind words!
I love how "Nordic" languages sound. Like something in-between English and German. I Always prefer to watch each movie in its original language, because usually there is something lost (not always emotion) in the dabbing. But I do like my subtitles so that I know what is going on :D
Amity 29 october 2021 will the sequel to the Quake go on cinema in norway. I have seen the trailer and it looks AMEZING the movie title is-Nordsjøen.
0:46 the kid realised she wasnt safe in a not so famous town anymore because its a Norwegian movie!!!!!
For the first time, I watched this movie then the wave. I didn't realize it was a sequel because once I watched the wave the actors there were familiar that's why I looked up both movies and yup they have the same actors. Glad I've seen this video.
I'm impressed. That looks like an exciting movie, and the special effects were nearly flawless.
i thought the girl almost died
Close call, if you asked me.
Same
Exactly
Actually the girl didn’t die
4:11 she's like:
"oh, i nearly died, btw i think i'm gonna stare at this glass breaking while i'm on it"
Shock is a real bitch ;).
She probably knows that any sudden movements would immediately break the glass. Shes just frozen and not sure what to do.
This is why I always stay at Motel-6. None of them are very tall!
OMG. The fear would kill me. I am afraid of
height...
I'm the same, but oddly enough it is the same reason why tall buildings fascinate me, and I love them.
@@pibmovieclips Architecture makes sense. Inside and outside meet each Other....
@@michaelvrede8814 I’m not afraid of heights, but I’m afraid of heights, but only up to 4 miles tall
I really enjoyed the visuals of the piano threat
I like how julia says Papa!😂
I put the main menu theme from wii sports resort while playing this with no sound and at the part when that man was in most danger, the music was most optimistic. Especially the scene where he slipped out of the building.
It was a woman
0:31: Zoidberg: Earthquake!
Bender: Hit the deck!
Zoidberg: Every lobster for himself! Woopwoopwoopwoopwoopwoop!
Those buildings weren't made of Norwegian wood, isn't it good?
That piano is gonna need re-tuned.
This looks nothing like a real earthquake, but still a great disaster movie. Very tense, loved it
It looks like something that moved the tectonic plates... Which would be yet unmeasured scale Earthquake to my knowledge, but perhaps possible.
This doesn't look anything to what earthquakes really look like. Great effects, tgough. Greetings from Chile. (I've been to some serious earthquakes).
And an earthquake in Oslo is also unrealistic, it’s a movie, and not a very good one either. Trust me, the first one was way better.
@@hexagonal69 Oslo gets earthquakes, this isn’t unrealistic at all. It’s based off of past events that can happen again.
The "oh oh.. glass is cracking" trope is old now.
Trope? Idk
How the hell does that earthquake work? It just lifts everything up and calls it a day? 😂
Oslo is, as far as I know, not a place you'd think of being associated with earthquakes. Then again, neither is central England, where I live, and yet, last year, just a few miles south of where I live, there was a series of four small tremors ( 3.0 on the Richter Scale) in the space of two weeks. It only goes to show that there is nowhere on Earth that doesn't experience them, even if almost all of them barely rattle the windows!
You absolutely right! The movies (including its predecessor - the Wave 2015) were based upon real risks that might exist, although, highly unlikely to happen.
For instance: "At 11.27 on Sunday, October 23, 1904, Norway’s capital city was rocked by an earthquake that measured 5.4 on the richer scale.
It wasn’t just felt in southern Norway but over some 800,000 square kilometres, across southern Sweden, as far as Helsinki and parts of northern Poland. There was also at least 18 reported aftershocks that followed the main earthquake." (googled that)
During my search I have also found that although geologist think don't currently think that there is any risk of significant Earthquake in Norway, on the other hand their original model calculated that a major Earthquake will be experienced on Norway's territory about every 100 Years. The last one is the former mentioned 5.4 richer scale Earthquake in 1904. Thus - the inspiration for the movie(s). They're little bit behind schedule as it is :/
@@pibmovieclips When you think about it, the fact that our world is spherical, when rock likes to lay flat if it can, kind of leads to faults and fractures everywhere, and if one bit moves, the rest has to, sooner or later. sometimes the shift is singular and relatively big, leading to a tremor that is noticed, or it comes as series of much smaller ones that get lost in the general hubbub of traffic and human generated ground shaking.
About ten years ago, I took a week's holiday in Iceland, staying in an hotel in Reykjavik. I chatted quite often with one of the receptionists, who explained that some nearby construction work required blasting the bedrock to accommodate the new buildings. She told me that Reykjavik experienced about 100 seismic tremors a day, most so weak they went unfelt- the dynamite explosions were stronger. I returned home, and 24 hours after getting back, was woken at 1am by the house I was living in shaking. Sure enough, when I checked the news, we had had an earthquake that time of night. I found it highly amusing and ironic that after spending time in a country known for volcanic and seismic activity, and felt nothing, I got back to my own and got woken by the strongest tremor we had had in ten years!
@@carolynallisee2463 Murphy's law! XD
Even its alarm this movie is cool
Thanks for the post!
Anytime :)
Do you think the Radisson paid for this much advertising?
The blonde girl at 0:40 is the same little girl that played the daughter of the family in 'The Wave'
It is the same family :D, the story continues from the wave. Yep, they're that lucky!
@@pnyi8359 ? Same girl same family and her name was Julia.
jesus... I just came here finishing the Wave movie.
What annoys me is how there is no people on the ground. I can safety safe that most of Oslo’s people living there or are there at the wrong time in the movie would die
I don't think they wanted to portray it as big tragedy as it would have been. It would require another rating, change the movie style into something else and their budget would take a massive hit. I think it was executive decision to keep it family friendly and "easy to consume" whilst saving budget and i personally think it was the right decision.
The soundtrack at the beginning sounds like it should've been used in a different movie lmao
4:09 Jurassic Park reference
I lived for years in Lima and there were several tremors where the walls of the building shaked. Very scary to me I don't have 0 experiences with that kind of nature things. The movie was scary although it is a movie it was pretty real, to me.
In my opinion, it’s nice seeing a high quality disaster movie that doesn’t take place in the USA. Nice to see some middle tier cities.
This is the sequel of the movie «The Wave» and while The Wave might be more realistic, this movie is a lot more interesting and engaging, and it does an amazing job at scaring the shit out of you
I still liked this one better, but both are well done.
3:17: WHEEEEEEEEEEEEE
my hands are sweaty af because they could fall off the building
I have seen this movie before.
I strongly recommend checking it out.
0:43-0:46 Well at least the Barcode project is gone...
Had to look it up, I take it that you don't particularly like those buildings there :D
@@pibmovieclips Pretty much, lol
Impressive effects.
Ahhh the city. Greatest deaths usually happen there.
in and around Oslo the minerals are very different from the rest of the country
Although the vibrations are not transmitted to humans, it is a mysterious production that makes the surroundings seem to be breaking down.
人間に揺れは伝わってないけど、周囲が壊れていくというような不思議な演出。
This Is 65 million years Ago This is Megaquake
It certainly looks like 10 points richter scale
Jesus CGI's startin to get good
well, the alarm came in late didnt it?
Forgot to ask this in my previous comment, In what way is The Quake a sequal to The Wave? Are there any characters from The Wave in the movie?
It is following the life of the main character geologist Kristian Eikjord played by Kristoffer Joner who is having PTSD from the last disaster. He is trying desperately to warn everyone about the possibility of a another disaster, but everyone thinks he is overreacting because of what had happened to him not long ago (the Wave). His kinds and wife are in the movie too, as he is rushing to save them on his own.
Actually really cool! "Yulia!"
We have this coming
That's the shortest eartquake ive ever seen, the rest are collateral damage
Bro the window the I well freak out in that one
0:42 that quake felt close to the 2011 Japan Quake.
Not really. The ground doesn't just explode during an earthquake, and the girl wouldn't be able to stand.
An earthquake is not a slowly moving wave of destruction. It's almost simultaneous, and it's a series of seismic waves causing a continuous tremor. Given the intensity seen in the movie the girl wouldn't be able to stand, she would be on the floor.
The skyscraper and tall buildings falling and breaking apart like that appears to be extremely unlikely. Not to mention the force of gravity and fatality rate.
oh, the fatality rate is totally off, but I understand that they desperately fought to keep it PG-13, so showing horrible deaths of being squashed were totally off the books - never going to happen in the first place. I don't personally have problem with how the building were destroyed - for the most part - but I wouldn't be competent to assess that in the first place. Care to explain more? I would like to know your objections in detail.
@@pibmovieclips I think its like san andreas it was higher, like 9.6 and had that fatality but still they tried to give the message that many people that live in countries like Oslo, Alaska, Tokyo live with the constant fear of an earthquake or a tsunami
This is why Ive been saying we should build skyscrapers as giant bouncy castles. Much safer.
Just watching this small clip scared the big Jesus out of me because I have a fear of heights like you never thought and oh my to be in this situation !
If this does happen I pray for these people that are in high buildings because it's going to be devastating !
This has really given me chills
I'm kinda same, except I enjoy the "thrill". It's complicated.
Love to watch this movie but can't find it on streaming services (YET) I saw THE WAVE AND IT WAS GREAT. I have seen some of the comments and I had to disagree with some of them.
I lived through an earthquake (7.1) in my country. When you're in the middle of it, you don't react fast enough (believe me) You see all those disaster movies and think, why are they frozen and don't move to a safe place, they should move to out of danger. Well, when everything around you as moving an falling it take a while for your brain to process the information and realize what's happening. Some people react instinctively and move into action but most will go into a shock and will freeze right in the spot, unavailable to do anything specially if you never experience a real earthquake.
Almost like soldiers on their first "action" and they prepare for it. Good thing that they have commanding officers and more experienced soldiers to get them out of the danger zone if they freeze anyway.
If you haven’t already seen it, here is a link to it in its entirety. Good movie.

The fear in the child's eyes.
Norway easy alarm reference.
misspelled eas hehe.
The CGI is so good tho...
To be honest I felt sorry for the city like especially when it showed the destroyed street and no one was seen at all I've never felt sorry for a city getting destroyed but I do for Oslo
Radisson sponsored this movie
I don't think they got the promotion that they were hoping for though :D
4:09 I see someone saw Lost World: Jurassic Park.
The bus scene? That might have been indeed the first time I saw this "concept".
It’s reminding me film 2012
It’s like the earthquake of San Andreas (2015)
this is why i’m afraid of heights.
I Love heights, because it terrifies me :D.
I want to watch this
1:57
Should probably take the stairs.
I want the movie I want to watch again :(
the guy that guy that was talking about the quake they named the man and the girl Jack and Rose
I’m sorry but if the earth shook that hard you would feel so disoriented you couldn’t even stand.
*Shock
First the tsunami and now the earthquake.
This family needs to move somewhere safe.
Like Pompeii.
You got it all wrong; it's them who are causing the disasters! They need to move as far away from people as possible, to not bring the wrath of gods on others!
(rewind clock 500y + and this is most likely the conclusion of any community. XD)
There was a guy who survived three ships sinking including the Titanic and no one would get on a ship he was on after that so he was forced out of the merchant marine.
@@AEB1066 I think it was a woman: Violet Jessop; she was on Titanic and Britanic when they sank.
But she remained to be "marine".
If I was there I would be scared
fair
How much did Radisson put into this film's budget I wonder?
$5,900,220.80, as stated on IMDB
Passably good movie but it was clear they ran out of money towards the end of the movie as the unwinding of the difficult situation was cut short.
4:05 building broken
Every building is broken lmao
😁, give him some slack, I'm pretty sure that he was trying to timestamp when the building was being ripped in two 😉
what a best norway disaster movie!
I certainly don't know any better.
I saw this and wondered if this was the movie I saw a clip from where a monster tidal wave swept up a fjord to a hotel. Turns out it's not, but it is a movie The Wave by the same guy.
That was the follow up movie to this one, the dude had nightmares in it.
Wow that was intense
Could you imagine to see this for real?
This wasn’t more competent than any other nation’s disaster movie, in my opinion.
No, it was ... it definitely was.
Not Oslo! We were there a couple of years ago and I love that city.
I know the OP benefits from comments but "competent" must have a different definition than an American definition.
Care to expand on it?
why do i want to see this movie now wanna know if the girl survived
The clip was edited this way for that purpose (increase interest in the film). But I could tell you if you want ;).
There are (2) Norwegian movie disaster, where I cannot find that easy (2) watch (4) free!!
The wave is the 1st one.
The Quake is the 2nd one...
Any suggestion/s??

@@pibmovieclips yes it does thank you!
I would already run 🏃♀️ and go to the mountains 🏔️
If you stood on top of that roof yourself, there would be nothing you could do but watch and pray. even if you we're on the ground and felt the treble before it all goes south. Your chance to "run" into "safety" is exactly zero.
Unless you have access to teleport of sorts at moment's notice, there is nothing you could do or go to "outrun" Earthquake.
You know the Earthquake drill right? Find nearest shelter (something solid to cover over you) and stay put! Anything else but that is decreasing your chance to survive.
