Review of Tomorrow, When the War Began (2010) by Jaakko T — 05 Apr 2011
Here's one way to please the brain dead masses:
Take a few good looking oversexed teenagers with crushes on each other (typical teen drama aka Beverly Hills 90210/Dawson's Creek/etc/etc...), mix in the storyline from the 1984 film "Red Dawn", and you got yourself a moneymaker!
I squirmed in my seat when the 2 cute girls talked about cute guys as enemy soldiers came up from behind them, and... I can't even describe what happens next. It was like a cartoon. Seriously. Think Bugs Bunny bopping soldiers over the head with a carrot...Yes it was that bad.
It was a great, intelligent film in 1984 when it was called "Red Dawn". But this ripoff film insults the intelligence of anyone over the age of 12.
I sincerely think it was a film made for a pre-teen audience. Otherwise, I fear for the intelligence of the human race.
