They aint ruskies.

The film is set in an alternate 1980s in which the United States is invaded by the Soviet Union and its Latin American allies (specifically Cuba and Nicaragua). However, the onset of World War III is merely in the background and not fully elaborated. The story follows a group of American high school students who resist the occupation with guerrilla warfare, calling themselves Wolverines, after their high school mascot.

Thumbs up

I watched it today too. Best comedy movie of all time.

Right from the absurd beginning with the assault on the school and some dude firing a rocket launcher through the front door.

I like the part later in the movie where they hook up with the pilot that ejected and the kids are more gung-ho about going after the enemy than he is.

Isn't this another one they are doing a remake of? I heard that it was supposed to be Chinese invading but that was put on hold due to political pressure

Red Dawn is one of those movies that, when I come across it flipping channels, I can't pass it up.

I'm not a chick flick kinda gal, fwiw.
