On the Big Screen: Tomorrow When the War Began

I just found out that the book Tomorrow When the War Began has been made into a movie, and is being released in Australia tomorrow, September 2nd. Talk about being behind!

Did you guys know it was being made into a movie? I wonder what it's going to be like. For those of you who missed the book, here's a synopsis:

When Ellie and six of her friends return home from a camping trip deep in the bush, they find things hideously wrong -- their families gone, houses empty and abandoned, pets and stock dead. Gradually they begin to comprehend that their country has been invaded and everyone in the town has been taken prisoner. As the horrible reality of the situation becomes evident they have to make a life-and-death decision: to run back into the bush and hide, to give themselves up to be with their families, or to stay and try to fight.
