Review of Red Dawn

Red Dawn (2012)
8/10
A lot better than I thought it would be!

Because this movie was a remake everyone already hated it without even giving it a chance. I understand the North Koreans would have a tough time invading the U.S. it was originally written as China but had to change it. This Red Dawn was way more believable in the sense that a group of kids could be trained by a Marine to fight guerrilla warfare instead of an average Jed (Patrick Swayze). I also liked how they differed from the original and didn't follow it to a T. One thing i did not appreciate was how Jed died instantly. Should of went out with a bang. This movie was only one hour and thirty minutes. I would of liked it to be longer to develop characters and their relationships, maybe explain more about the takeover etc. The action was well done. Actors also good. Very entertaining movie. I would hope for a sequel. This movie was screwed from all these haters who complain about everything instead of enjoying a good movie. Overall well worth the $10 ticket.
