I got it on DVD a few years ago and watch it about once a year. I think it is actually a pretty entertaining movie. Some of the messages are a bit overt, but the lessons are good regardless.
It has more staying power than any of the last star wars movies, lethal weapon movies, etc.

I imagine that starting this weekend it will be non-stop Roadhouse and Dirty Dancing again on AMC.

I know that at one time it was rated as the movie with the most killings ever shown in film . I wouldn’t rec. for kids under 12. ( when they can usually legally own a weapon or hunt )

You can usually find a copy or two on dvd at pawn shops. Shoot, I have 300 movies and only a handfull were purchased new. If you’re paying more than $4 for DVD’s your paying too much. And THAT is an upper limit. ;)

The thing that ticked off liberals the most was the scene where the Cuban commander instructs his men to check the gun registration forms to find those that would likely put up the most resistance.
Interesting its being remade as we discuss this, btw.

Ive never seen this, but it seems like the kind of movie my little boy and I might like. Is it good? The production quality is typical of the 80's, which is a bit lacking by today's standards.
But the plot, script, acting, etc.. All terrific!

Its a very well made, written, directed and acted movie, although there are a few low-budget mistakes.
The main problem is the supposition that a consortium of Mexicans, Russkies, Cubans and other left-wing statists could launch a successful invasion of the USA.

Yes and they are doing a remake right now of it, but unfortunately with the way things are going you son may just get to live it!

High school kids fighting communists who have attacked the US! That was a great movie but I swear I never saw it run again.
I hope there’s a lot of his movies on this weekend. I’ll record Red Dawn for sure.
