Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 2/5 --
Though such subject matter may sound provocative on paper, Macdonald's big screen translation is too dour and generic to ever truly capture the imagination.

Rating: 3/4 --
There's a clear message here: Sometimes it takes extraordinary circumstances to realize it, but we all have the capacity to shed our petty concerns and focus on the greater good.

There's a lot left unsaid in How I Live Now - but it's unsaid with unusual force.

Ms. Ronan grows in screen presence, and grace, as her character opens up...
Wall Street Journal
Rating: 2/4 --
Although ambitious with its take on young love within the possible confines of a grueling Armageddon, dullards Daisy and Eddie opt for a hormonal hayride in the English countryside.

3 stars out of 5 -- Macdonald's film is a noble stab at bringing Meg Rosoff's YA novel to the screen, which sees Ronan in typically watchable form.

Product Description:
A New York teen visiting relatives in the English countryside must fight for survival after the entire world is plunged into war in this drama directed by Kevin Macdonald, and based on the apocalyptic novel by Meg Rosoff. Fifteen-year-old Daisy (Saoirse Ronan) has recently arrived in the United Kingdom to spend the summer with her cousins when her heart flutters at the sight of her handsome cousin Eddie (George MacKay). Just as the pair have begin to form an intense connection, however, the bombs begin to rain down on London, and an occupying military force seizes power. Now, with Eddie nowhere to be found, Daisy must protect his younger siblings Isaac (Tom Holland) and Piper (Harley Bird) while attempting to navigate a frightening new world where survival is a day-to-day struggle. Later, when the trio is separated, the uncertainty of not knowing Eddie's fate begins to take a heavy toll on the psyche of the frightened, misplaced Daisy.
