Red Dawn

Red Dawn is an American action film of the same name. This takes place in an alternate timeline where the U.S. gets invaded by it’s former, ally Japan renamed the “Monikan Empire.”
 
==Plot==
An introductory montage shows the fallout of an economic crisis in the European Union and a weakened NATO alliance, amid increasing cooperation between an increasingly militant Monikan Empire, formerly Japan and an ultranationalist-controlled Russia. The increased deployment of U.S. troops abroad leaves the mainland vulnerable.
U.S. Marine Jed Eckert is home on leave in San Diego, California. He reunites with his father, San Diego Police Sergeant Tom Eckert and his brother, football player Matt Eckert, as well as his childhood friend Toni Walsh and her cousin Erica Martin, Matt's girlfriend. The morning after a mysterious power outage, Jed, Matt, and a man with his Porsche are shocked to see swarms of invading Monikan paratroopers and transport aircraft landing in Rancho Santa Fe. Jed and Matt’s father tells them to flee to their cabin in the woods while he helps the townspeople. The man Jed and Matt talked to was killed by the Japanese. They are joined there by Robert Morris, Daryl Bates, Danny Bates, siblings Akane and Greg Goodyear, and Senpai, and later by Toni; Erica is captured by the Japanese. Tensions build as the teens try to decide whether to surrender to the invaders or resist, with Senpai ending up betraying their position. The Japanese soldiers revealed to be Monikan soliders, under the command of Captain Itami, bring Sergeant Eckert and the mayor out to convince the group to surrender; while the mayor persuades the boys to give up, Itami executes Sergeant Eckert after he refuses to cooperate and actively encourages them to resist.
The Wolverines eventually encounter Marine Sergeant Major Andrew Tanner and two other Marines, Corporal Abe and Sergeant Hodges. They reveal that the Russian-backed Monikan Empire invasion used an EMP weapon that crippled the U.S. electrical grid and military, followed by landings along the east and west coasts (Camp Pendleton is destroyed. American counterattacks eventually halting their advances, leaving an area stretching from Michigan to Montana and Alabama to Texas as "Free America", using the Rocky Mountains in the west and the Appalachians in the east as geographic buffers, as pockets of patriotic guerrillas in the Cascades and the Sierra Nevada mountains continue to fight. They also reveal that Captain Itami suitcase contains an EMP-resistant radio telephone, that if captured would enable the U.S. command to listen in on enemy communication, and gain a tactical advantage in a counter-offensive. The Wolverines assist Tanner, Smith, and Hodges in infiltrating the local police station, the Japanese center of operations. They succeed in stealing the suitcase with Jed avenging his father's death by killing MC, though Hodges is killed in the firefight.
Tanner and Abe depart in a UH-1 with the suitcase. The remaining Wolverines went with them to continue to fight, recruiting more members and raiding prisoner camps, with Matt now leading the effort to continue opposing the occupation. The flag of Free America is flown by patriots daring a raid on a Japanese concentration camp. Tanner got killed by a grenade leaving Abe the only one alive.
Later, Jed announces that he intends to fight and the others agree to join him, calling themselves the Wolverines after their school mascot. After acquiring weapons, establishing a base in an abandoned mine, and being trained by Jed, the Wolverines begin a series of guerrilla attacks against soldiers and collaborators, including Senpai, his friend, and some other men. As Matt manages to free Erica from her imprisonment, he jeopardizes the mission resulting in Akihito’s death. The Monikans retaliate by bombarding the surrounding woods to destroy the Wolverines' base, killing Robert, and Toni, with the remaining survivors fleeing deeper into the woods.
After they successfully escape with the suitcase, the Wolverines and Abe regroup in a safe house. After a brief conversation between Jed and Matt, however, they are ambushed by Russian Spetsnaz and Jed and Matt is killed in the firefight after leaving everyone. Visibly shaken, and the rest of the group escape with the suitcase. Robert realizes that during the escape from the police station, Daryl was ejected with a permanent subcutaneous tracking device that the Monikans/Russians used to find them. After some thought, Daryl accepts the fact that he cannot go on with them and decides to stay behind, he gets shot by Robert. The rest continue on to the Marines's extraction point. At the end of the movie it’s implied that the USA won and the remaining Wolverines Erica, Danny, Akane, and one soldier, Abe who survived visit the stone.
