Red Dawn (2012)

It's lazy remake time again, lets pick a movie from the 80s the twenty somethings won't remember, update it, stick some pretty faces in it and Bobs your Uncle, cash in the Bank.
The original Red Dawn had a bunch of 'kids' defending the good old US of A from those Commies, after a Russian invasion, this time it's those even nastier Commies, the North Koreans who invade.

The whole premise is laughable with no insight into just how North Korea has managed a land invasion on US soil, just where are all the US troops, surely if the US felt an invasion or attack was possible, a nuclear strike would have been threatened?

The whole film is laughable in the wrong sense, utter nonsense, pathetic flag waving BS and a total disregard for any logic whatsoever.
