Movie review: Red Dawn
Updated On: 01 December, 2012 09:25 AM IST | | Mihir Fadnavis
Red Dawn is a remake of the 1984 movie of the same name, and the biggest difference between the two films is that the newer version is considerably dumber. It's got all the crummy B-movie vibe of the original in addition to its own flavor of brainless xenophobia.

Starring a singularly uncharismatic pack of youngsters, including Chris Hemsworth (Thor), Josh Hutcherson (Journey), Josh Peck, Isabel Lucas (from Transformers 2) and Friday Night Lights hottie Adrianne Palicki, Red Dawn makes the mistake of confusing American patriotism with teenage bigotry, unabashed racism and classless antipathy. While the original was a campy escapist piece of cinema, the new version is a ditchwater dull, albeit thoroughly offensive piece of drivel.
