Released in 1984, towards the tail end of The Cold War, Red Dawn was an action-packed and testosterone-fuelled tale of a group of teenagers banding together and fighting back when Soviet troops invade the United States. And while it's no classic, it has developed something of a cult following in the intervening years as a flag-waving flick that's dumb fun.
This remake – which was shelved for two years due to MGM's financial troubles – takes much the same plot but replaces the Russian threat with one from North Korea. The result is a film that actually feels like a Cold War relic, the characters one-dimensional, the effects second grade, the tone at times somewhat racist.
