Red Dawn (2012)
A group of teenagers look to save their town from an invasion of North Korean soldiers.
Superfluous remake of a silly Cold War propaganda actioner has no redeeming qualities except for some watchable action, but probably worse than the original, since the premise has even less clout than it hardly had 30 years before.
Maltin**1/2: "...surprisingly watchable remake of John Milius' 1984 kids-versus-Commies shoot 'em-up. Premise is silly, performances and dialogue are uneven, at best, but some rousing action sequences have an impressive semi-documentary quality."

John Wick (2014)
An ex-hitman comes out of retirement to track down the gangsters that took everything from him.
Above-average actioner which offers a lot of neatly choreographed action and a high body count, but is otherwise unremarkable - well, if you ignore the fact that the hero is avenging the killing of his puppy.
