    Pretty decent for an Aussie Red Dawn flick. The idea is fun and the setting works, but the energy is a bit uneven. Some scenes hit the right mood, then others drag or feel oddly stiff. There’s some flat acting here and there, and a few moments that should feel bigger just kind of pass by. Still, it’s easy enough to watch and has a couple cool bits—you just end up wanting a little more punch from it.

    This was an excellent movie even if was another version of "Red Dawn."

    Really good film but a total rip-off of Red Dawn. Even if it is based on a series of books, then the books are a total rip-off of Red Dawn, the story lines are practically identical. Enjoyed watching it but at the end I was expecting credits to say based on the original film 'Red Dawn,' because while good it is nothing more than an Australian version of that film. Credit needs to be given where credit is due
