Tomorrow When The War Began (2010) 8/10

Starring : Caitlin Stasey, Rachel Hurd-Wood, Lincoln Lewis, Deniz Akdeniz, Phoebe Tonkin, Chris Pang, Ashleigh Cummings, Andrew Ryan
Director : Stuart Beattie
Running Time : 100 mins

After they return from a camping trip, a group of Australian teenagers discover that their town has been invaded by a foreign power and their families have been taken captive. The world is at war, and this disparate group of teenagers will stop at nothing to protect their country and prevent their enemy from taking over. So together they decide to fight against them and do whatever it takes to get their town back.

This is a well scripted movie with plenty of action and characters you can actually believe in. The acting is solid, people don’t die just for the sake of killing them off, and the believable characters really help to empathise with the situation. Fans of military movies will like this, but so will fans of character driven narrative.
