There has been many a Red Dawn  movie made since movies started hitting the screens - but when the original first hit the screens it created something more than an underdog story. I should correct myself here I suppose, as it was nothing really all that new as far as movie history goes, but it somehow managed to evoke a whole new sense of feelings from it's audience when suddenly the cold war came down on us hard, and the world rested on the hands of a few teens and their determination. Enough about that movie though, this is a remake and all, but I feel we need to look at it on its own before we cast any judgments!
