Guinness Book of Records considered it the "most violent film" at the time with a rate of 134 acts of violence per hour, or 2.23 per minute. Yet it was also the first film given a rating of PG-13. I guess the point was how much violence was depicted rather than how graphic it actually was.

One minute in and I'm already confused, why is Russia targeting a small town when it could've been New York or Washington DC? And the teacher who walked out expecting to talk to armed hostile soldiers just won the Darwin award...
Little to no resistance as it doesnot have many people. A little town still has infrastructure to scale up a bit to house their supplies and troops. It might be closer to a theater or a big city that's why. During German occupation of Ukraine, they chose a small town in Ukraine instead of Kyiv as their capital. Reasoning was the same as above. Setting up a base or supply town in some large city would be risky (stalingrad like situation ).
Because most defense will be in bigger cities like New York Washington Los Angeles smaller towns will either have to wait or locals should defend themselves until help arrives
Red dawn(1984): makes highly detailed mock up Russian weapons (suchlike fake Mi-24A, T-72 MBT, ZSU-23, and Yak-38...

Apparently one of the parachutists in the opening scene got blown off course, and landed in a farmers tree. Then he had to explain at the point of pitchfork that no he wasn’t a Soviet paratrooper. He was just an extra rigged up to look like one. The farmer wasn’t convinced until the police arrived.

The reason Bela let them go was because he started to sympathize with the Wolverines. He says somewhere in the movie that he had always been the insurgent, never the Occupier. He knew what it was like, fighting in your homeland against an invading force. He knew he would have been doing the same things. So when he saw the brothers unarmed and gravely wounded, rather than kill them, he took pity/mercy on them instead.
@DisealBitches Yeah, this is most certainly false. Newer movies sometimes completely ruin the feel of the original movies, and sometimes the plot is even changed and things are "modernized"

The infamous french Exocet missile stolen from East German agents with perpetrator from west germany. so I guess lada's (Russian cars) also got stolen too. Or that might be wrong because I think some Lada brought to the US after the Reunification of Germany. Who knows.
@@Its_Me_Romano The Soviet vehicles in the movie were in fact _very good_ mockups, referenced from many pictures and captured soviet displays around the 1st world. They really went all out to try and replicate the T-72 tanks with local cargo tractors and the "Hind-Ds" were French helis with visual modifications to look like Hinds. Many of these vismod vehicles would later appear in other movies of the time period, such as Rambo III. Most of the small-arms were sourced from non-Soviet-aligned countries, like Egyptian AKs, Romanian Valmet machineguns or in the case of the "DShk" heavy machineguns, were actually American M60 machine guns modified to look Soviet.
The reason Col. Bela let the two brothers go as a sign of mercy and respect (Respect is big in Latin countries) was because he himself was a guerilla fighter during the Cuban revolution, one of the things that Fidel, and his brother, Raul Castro and Che Guevera said they were fighting against was imperialism, which is what the Soviet and Cuban joint operation was. It was not a revolution. It was imperialism. He became what he had fought really hard against, and Col. Bela felt regret, anger and rage, shame, and sadness at what he was doing and was tired by the time he and his executive officer saw the dead men from Nicaragua, El Salvador, Angola, Cambodia and Mexico. Col. Bela even wrote it in his letter to his esposa that there was no more revolution and that he wanted to be back on the island, resting in the sun in peace with her and you could tell he was completely tired by the letter. He saw two men that did their time in Hell. Jed and Matt went into war as boys, they died as men.
"russia, back then known as the soviet union" Moldova, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, and Ukraine: am I a joke to you?
Colonel Bella fought as a Partisan in Cuba and in a scene while writing to his Wife he felt disillusioned about the War and was going to resign his commission before Jed and his brother attacked the Headquarters near the end.
“Enemy soldiers are killing innocent civilians for apparently no reason” as he’s showing a clip of a Russian soldier picking up a handgun off a civilian… this guy
Yes, but seeing as how there are more guns than citizens in the United States, the natural assumption of any occupying Russian soldier would be that every American is armed.
@@davidanderson_surrey_bc Pretty sure every country has this thing where they say this, even Japan itself, at least one of their generals said, "You will find a gun behind every blade of grass." which means, at least at the time when the US Federal Government permitted people to get guns, it's just too many people with guns, to the point you might as well not invade. It's not worth invading for you will not be facing some hundred of thousands of soldiers, but millions to tens of millions of armed patriots. Not worth the risk. I suppose any occupation force, or any invasion force, would not take risks involving Americans. The meme of America is all about guns, so of course people stereotype Americans to have guns.
@@SgtHawk45 Personally, I'd think the entire population being armed would make it easier to invade, as you can drop the pretense that anyone is a civilian and just kill anything that moves. The biggest obstacle to a modern military (aside from another modern military) is the desire to NOT do war crimes, and it's not a war crime if they were armed.
I remember watching it in the theatre when it first came out. Everyone was shocked. It's not often you see a child killed onscreen, but in Red Dawn they're killed in the opening and throughout the movie! Still, it's shows how ugly war can be and how it can destroy innocence.

The Soviet Union isn't just Russia, the Soviet Union was a Union of 16 Countries (Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, Krygystan, Uzbekistan, Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan)
The soldier letting the brothers go made complete sense, before the attack he wrote a letter saying he would not want anything more than to leave America and enjoy the company of his wife an and child, he let them go because he can think about how hard it is to loose someone that he loves the most
Being a black man I could tell you America is not all of that but Russia especially right now with how crazy Putin is acting seems like a bad guy right now
Which country would project themselves as the bad person in the story? Pretty much no countries. That's why countries have propaganda to convince their citizens that they are the hero's in the story. Soviet Union probably does the same thing as USA as well.
@@yeelin723 I could not find Soviet movies about bad Americans, a few of them are based on books and a few depict social problems but no war or invasions.
@@Crashed131963 it’s not it also had 18 countries a production of great military weapons and tanks, the most powerful country and different military tactics
probably no one asked for this but the tanks seem to be like the russian T72 tank or T80. It seems modified from another tank so it’s like a whole different tank but they added stuff on it to make it look like the T72 / T80
Colonel Bella letting them live makes sense. He himself was once a guerilla fighter and could understand what they went through. In fact, he hates that Russian general guy and later resigns because he no longer wants to fight.
Hmmm “wolverines” heard that before in this channel, its definitely not from a another group which survived a attack from a country and were also named the Wolverines
Was able to see the original film and loved it and still love it now, I'm really hoping Ukraine is taking a lot of notes from it too in terms of trying to fight back against the Russians
Notes from this? I understand your concern. But the Ukrainians should never take notes from this. It's unrealistic, very. The Spatnaz could've already killed the, "Wolverines", if anything the soviet HiCom should never get involved in a small group of Gorilla fighters. The Soviets paratrooping there is also unreal... how did the American radars not detect a huge column of planes? Theres a million reasons why this simply wouldnt work and unrealistic. I understand this is a movie and I may as well be missing a point, but taking notes from a movie that isnt even historically accurate?

The Boeing B-29 Superfortress is an American 4 (four) engined propeller driven heavy bomber, designed by Boeing and flown primarily by the USA (united states) during Ww2 (world war 2) and the Korean War. Named in allusion to its predecessor, The B-17 Flying Fortress, the Superfortress was designed for high altitude stragitic bombing, but also excelled in low altitude night incendiary bombing, and in dropping naval mines to blockade Japan (imperial japan). B-29s dropped the atomic bombs (2 of them actually) on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the only aircraft ever to drop nuclear bombs in combat.

They did hit and run attacks on supply convoys behind enemy lines, it was never implied they single handedly won the war.

i love how americans always make the soviets look like the bad guys when the americans are the good guys
Being a black man I could tell you America is not all of that but Russia especially right now with how crazy Putin is acting seems like a bad guy right now
BUT TRUTH IS COMMUNISM IZ ALSO GOOD IF IT HAS RIGHT LEADERS BUT SHITTY THING IS CITIZENS HAVE NO RIGHT TO QUESTION GOVT.
It was the Cold War. So the film is supposed to be anti communist.
Which country would project themselves as the bad person in the story? Pretty much no countries. That's why countries have propaganda to convince their citizens that they are the hero's in the story. Soviet Union probably does the same thing as USA as well.
@@yeelin723 I could not find Soviet movies about bad Americans, a few of them are based on books and a few depict social problems but no war or invasions.

“And they must be nets fans” little out if charecter lol
probably no one asked for this but the tanks seem to be like the russian T72 tank or T80. It seems modified from another tank so it’s like a whole different tank but they added stuff on it to make it look like the T72 / T80
Probably because it’s a movie
I like how it’s released in 1984
Also relevant today
Colonel Bella letting them live makes sense. He himself was once a guerilla fighter and could understand what they went through. In fact, he hates that Russian general guy and later resigns because he no longer wants to fight.
Cool
But it's undigestable that he let the brothers go away!

they got their hands full with all the WW2 movies

If the Russians were to invade Uvalde, the police would wait for 77 minutes, before responding to the attack.
The best way to prevent Russians invading Uvalde is to restrict the number of doors in each building to just one.
Interesting movie, hope that will never happen!

Hmmm “wolverines” heard that before in this channel, its definitely not from a another group which survived a attack from a country and were also named the Wolverines
Definitely I hear a bell 🔔 ringing . I think some movie about North Korea 🇰🇵 invading America
@@iaku2227 yea bro
Guys i think the movie was called the blue dawn idk
Was able to see the original film and loved it and still love it now, I'm really hoping Ukraine is taking a lot of notes from it too in terms of trying to fight back against the Russians
Ukraine used to be part of the Soviet Union and the same people who would have done this in this movie
Notes from this? I understand your concern. But the Ukrainians should never take notes from this. It's unrealistic, very. The Spatnaz could've already killed the, "Wolverines", if anything the soviet HiCom should never get involved in a small group of Gorilla fighters. The Soviets paratrooping there is also unreal... how did the American radars not detect a huge column of planes? Theres a million reasons why this simply wouldnt work and unrealistic. I understand this is a movie and I may as well be missing a point, but taking notes from a movie that isnt even historically accurate?
This is a movie which is unrealistically written they should never take notes of this
@@yes8032 As always some random us citizens kills like 100 of soldiers, that is stupid and straight up propaganda. They will die within days of occupation...
They actually wrote “Wolverines” on a BMP.
This is my favorite one so far
This was one of the best movies I’ve ever watched, the ending was also perfect
As a Russian, I see this video and I cringe because I know that this is how people see all Russians.
I mean... It was made during 1984.
I'm not even going to click to SEE the video and be subjected to a distorted view of reality and pure propaganda. As if Russia would EVER invade USA (unlike USA's secret aspirations).
@@ember2933 I mean... most of the people now see Russians as even worse due to propaganda brainwashing...
I mean your czar is doing it right now Georgia and Ukraine

"Comrades, we will begin our multi-pronged invasion of United States!"
"Da! To victory!"
*Soviet military leaders in real life:*
"Comrades, we will begin our multi-pronged invasion of United Sta-"
"Are you fucking kidding me????"
Facts
Yup, both the Soviet Union and the USA are superpowers, if either tried to directly invade the main areas, it would be doom for the invader.
Facts
Yeah, if Russia decided to attack the U.S the world would turn to ash from nukes
BLYAT!!!!!
i tought in the last you posted the same thing it was north korea
The Boeing B-29 Superfortress is an American 4 (four) engined propeller driven heavy bomber, designed by Boeing and flown primarily by the USA (united states) during Ww2 (world war 2) and the Korean War. Named in allusion to its predecessor, The B-17 Flying Fortress, the Superfortress was designed for high altitude stragitic bombing, but also excelled in low altitude night incendiary bombing, and in dropping naval mines to blockade Japan (imperial japan). B-29s dropped the atomic bombs (2 of them actually) on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the only aircraft ever to drop nuclear bombs in combat.
This movie was way more believable then the remake
"then"???

The most surreal fact of this movie is soviet troops actually even coming close to touch mainland american soil
This film must be in Guinnes book for "Least reallistic film"
The war is actually still going on between, Russia and Ukraine. This is crazy 😮
SOMETIMES I JUST WONDER “WHY?” WHY DID WAR EVEN START LIKE WHY CANT WE JUST ALL GET ALONGGGGGGGGGGGG 😡
There's people like Michael Jackson or Mandela who tried to unite us.
Unfortunately they died and then the world divided even more. Rip
A year ago I wouldnt have thought the scenes where The Soviet Union targets civilians was very realistic but I realise now it’s spot on.
Back when we thought Russia was capable of this. When in reality a 2 week military operation has turned into a 3 year one
I mean, they did get poor intel, they thought it was gonna be like 2014 during the Crimean annexation so they weren't ready, after that first echelon things started changing tho, now they're doing small scale advancements towards the front and are currently winning the war of attrition
1:05 If that happened in real life I don't think they would commit war crimes
Have you not been watching the news lately?
Red dawn is the best movie ever fun fact the "soviets where driving in their mock armored vehicles so two undercover cia agents pulled them over”
"where"???
This is like Russia in the war against Ukraine
Except that the Russians fail terribly
i just finished the chapter called " Socialism in Europe and the Russian Revolution " in our school , so excited get to more about Russia !!!
Such an impossible scenario......
Even at this time in history the Soviets was about to collapse so nice they got bare strong
They weren't, a lot of what happened is a mix of political sabotage by in-party members and the eventual neo-liberal policy change which absolutely wrecked the economy. It was so bad multiple riots wanting the USSR back ensued.
8:24 It’s kinda unrealistic how a group of untrained teens, can easily win against a group of highly trained Soviet Soldiers. Even if they had the upper hand.
"Highly trained" lmao, the soviets were a disarray in Afghanistan and in 2022 the Russian's are losing at in thier old territory
Calling them Highly trained is an over statement
