"Occupation is an action-movie throwback, a comfortable old combat boot. It's rousing in the old, familiar ways, but shouldn't all that sound and fury signify something?"

Village Voice"A small-town soap with intergalactic embellishments. Picture A Country Practice invaded by aliens."

Sydney Morning Herald
Sydney Morning Herald"Occupation (a second film is already in the works) feels like a film that wants to be the next Tomorrow When the War Began, but sometimes seems more akin to Peter Jackson's debut Bad Taste - without the laughs."

Stuff"Clearly hoping to capture an old-school feel, the movie is just too long and too cliched, bordering on ridiculous towards its end. Even the soundtrack, which swells to epic heights as often as possible, feels cheesy rather than stirring."

New Zealand Herald"This is the rare action movie that's almost more exciting when the characters put down their guns and take up an argument."
