Trailer

Lo and behold, folks, another entry in the inexplicably still popular genre of modern invasion fiction: A fearmongering 'China attacks the US' flick that's even dumber than the remake of Red Dawn!

Hell, I wouldn't even mind these invasion flicks so much if they could just mix it up for a change. It's always China (if the producers want to flat-out ignore their market such as with this low-rent piece of shit that's apparently so bad that they couldn't get a single Asian actor) or North Korea (if the producers do want to market it in China as well). Why can't they turn the whole thing on its head for once and have the invaders be American? Or simply go for a premise that's deliberately insane, like having America invaded by Europe, some preposterous future version of Germany, evil timetravelling Americans from the future or, fuck, simply EVERYONE.

Try Iron Sky. Moon Nazis vs Sarah Palin.

Maybe I don't watch many movies, but what other Chinese invasion movie is there?
