Red Dawn wasn't so bad, a little jingoistic, but that's what you expect
from 
movies about your country being invaded. Still, the "guerrillas in the 
mountains" angle was interesting especially since it took place in the
US, 
which hasn't been invaded since Panch Villa. I always wondered what a
modern 
war fought in the US would be like, since we have some incredibly built
up 
areas, and some pretty desolate ones, too.
