Rambo Reviews

If you are a Rambo fanatic this is your kind of movie.  If you love war, blood and guts this is your movie.  If you are into lofty, humanitarian ideals regardless of the price to be paid this movie is for you.

If you are wanting to head out to a feel-good movie with a significant other and/or the rug rats, this movie is NOT for you.  If you get sick seeing a hang-nail this movie is NOT for you.  If you want to laugh and have a great time for about 90 minutes this movie is NOT for you.

I fall more into the first paragraph but even I was shocked by the amount and method of tossing blood, body parts...

I did not expect this movie to be the apex of movie making, but it was not even a fun action movie. The violence is not gory in a wacky fun way, or in a tough, action hero way. It is gritty and realistic and the plot is still a wacky, unrealistic action plot, which just makes the violence seem unnecessary. The acting is terrible and the dialouge is awful and rare, since most of the movie has no talking. The plot is full of holes and very predictable. Set your standards low, and then prepare to be disappointed.

      As with all Rambo movies the action is very prolific. Of course it is a bit too fictional, Rambo being hired by a church goer along with several mercenaries on a suicidal mission to rescue humanitarians caught in the middle of Burmese civil war. As with the other precursers, Rambo minds his own business and is suddenly caught up in a struggle for which he reluctanly takes part in. Clearly a good guy, bad guy situation. The Burmese corrupt military kills innocent civilians with no remorse. Rambo consists of the hero with war demons lurking in his soul.

In the latest Rambo movie all we see is blood. Sylvester Stallone is good in the series with his stone face and all, but too much blood in this one gives you a feeling of sickness. It is great to be back in the adventures of John Rambo, but does he ever get away from too much killings and all? In order to save a few missionaries that asked him to take them into dangerous territory, in order to save some lives with their medicine, these doctors are taken prisioners (the ones that survived the massive killing!). A missionary has to decide if the dangerous area he is entering into is worth his killing,...

This movie obviously stars Sylvester Stallone.  He does appear to have done a lot of body building, but he never takes his shirt off, so it is hard to tell if the bulk is really muscle.  His face looks strange and puffy and he doesn't make a very convincing hero.  Also, the veins stand so far out in his arms that his arms look deformed.  The main point of this movie appears to be to show very gory killings.  Limbs are cut off, people are blown up with limbs flying through the air, and many people get their heads shot off.  It seems unrealistic that a bullet would totally blow up someones'...
