Except that to even a foreigner, a Hungarian, like myself sees that isn't what the movie is about if the trailer is any accurate indication. It's about playing into the US fantasy of having a revolution again like the one it was founded on, the one that textbooks tell children. A big, glorious people's revolution where the evil oppressor is thrown down, where the country is turned into an idealized paradise its people see in response to the ideology of the invaders, etc, etc.
Red Dawn is a sensible film plot. You have two very powerful countries, arguably on the verge of war, so let's see what happens if they fight.
Again, I'm basing this guess on the trailer, but LOOK at it: it doesn't show the US military fighting back, it doesn't show how one piece of super-costly cutting-edge technology pays offs against the enemy's slightly-less cutting-edge technology. It doesn't even have iconic military stuff, like jetfighters ridicolously dogfighting like its 1917 or navies firing at each other in a surprisingly-followable-from-the-sky naval battles or US missiles trying desperately to shoot down incoming Chinese ICBMs, or whatever goes on in modern military movies.
No, if the trailer is of any accurate indication, Red Dawn 2.0 is not about the interesting idea of "what if the PRC decides to fight the USA or vice versa". The trailer heavily implies that the USA simply handed over to the PRC (which fits into more and more into the "right-wing power fantasy" theory), and people are suddenly living in deep oppression from the Chinese. And for some reason, this is done completely, with every government employee 100% complying (I imagine the stereotypical American sheriff to be the LAST person to comply with an occupying power).
It isn't Chinese soldiers that tell the titular couple to wear a freedom-bracelet or whatever, it's white person dressed like local police (with big, stereotypical sheriff glasses). In fact, the soldiers dragging away the husband are clearly American soldiers.
The trailer clearly states that the biggest problem the resistance fighters are facing is that all modern computer technology is made in China and therefore designed to suddenly turn against you when the Chinese invade (which is ridiculous). The people depicted as the main, important people are clearly civilians fighting a war to free their nation and return it to its own ideology (as the "reboot the system" metaphor which is actually a trope of "revolution" fantasy: return the nation to its ideological purity). The idea that a citizen-resistance can win against a modern war machine is clearly ridiculous (as Hungarians experienced during 1956) to everyone but to Americans who grew up with a American Revolutionary War legend and its citizen-uprising fantasy.
So no, Red Dawn 2.0 does not appear to be at all a sensible film, but the same scaremongering, citizen-uprising fantasy mental-masturbation fest that the original had but blatant, more unlikely, more obviously propaganda and done far more cheaply.
