The original didn't completely suck -- Patrick Swayze's character was a bit much but Powers Boothe was pretty good as the downed pilot and any film with Lea Thompson was good by me back then.

At least the concept of Russia trying a land invasion to get the resources they needed to feed their people wasn't totally laughable back then but the idea that North Korea could invade anything further than 100 km from their border is just comedic. Remaking the film seemed stupid to me but these cosmetic changes are dumber than dirt.
