This was pretty good - it was typical Aussie 'stuff 'em!' attitude and that's not a bad thing. There was NO 'America's going to save the world so the rest of you can sit back!' and that made a nice change. There was no one person there as the 'save the day' hero, nor was there the intrinsically evil character.
The acting was pretty good and the story was well done considering it was all really done on a shoestring budget. NOT every film is going to be a hollywood blockbuster, and I'm so grateful for that!

Not as bad as many say!
I enjoyed it.
Can't understand all the bad reviews. Although it's a bit corny and illogical at times, I enjoyed every minute of it. It is just a movie after all, and movies are meant to entertain, which it did. I think some people expect too much in a movie.
It's a country town. What could happen?
Aliens try to take over the world but meet the "Red Dawn" type of resistance in rural Australia. The film gives us some background on a group of individuals who are not compatible but somehow come together to fight the invading aliens, just as Reagan would want. (Seriously they open with a Reagan speech on the advantages of invading aliens.)
This is a low budget Aussie "Independence Day" with a female colonel giving a very poor "save the world" speech. I didn't think the characters were that great. No Will Smith, Randy Quaid, or Patrick Swayze.
