This movie is all about patriotism. USA is the best and the rest of the world is stupid. American kids with basic training have no problem defeating good trained North Korean forces. Personally I liked Tomorrow, Whem The War Began more, which is the same kind of movie.
And why is a part of the population prisoned and the rest just living their lives.
I live in the Netherlands and at the moment there is a lot off fear for a war with Russia and I'm asking myself why that is. But if I watch many American action movies (like Red Dawn), TV-series (like the Last Ship and NCIS LA) and videogames you know why. America has never stopped seeing Russia or communism as the enemy, even after the fall of the Berlin Wall. But then again, America doesn't even trust their allies.
