You gotta admit he does look good for 61.

(I'm sure he's had plenty of "help" though).
 
Even downloading this film on bittorent was a waste of time. If ignore the american obsession with their nationalism if ignore rambo being a 61 old man with more plastic sugery than micheal jackson and if ignore the body counts then it is a pale reflection on the original rambo film. In the orginal no one died but 3 films later old mad dog rambo is on a killing spree that makes no sense. Well only to hollywood.
 
Possibly the best film ever made. The extreme violence was satisfactory. The number of killings was great enough to earn it 5 star status on points alone. There was a commendable amount of head, limb and throat chopping. Numerous people were cut in half with gigantic machine guns. Obligatory sniper stuff was very well done. I was saddened by the absence of silenced weapons. No bombs were defused and no helicopters exploded. There are plenty of gigantic explosions. Scenes were reminiscent of the jungle bits of Metal gear Solid 3 and the more country side-esque parts of COD4. But all of it was quintessentially Rambo. There hasn't been a film made like this since the 80's. Despite the body count and sheer ridiculousness of it all it managed to suspend disbelief in a most entertaining way, unlike Commando or Rambo 3 (which are both still awesome). And it doesn't pussy out on the violence, although I can't help thinking that the guy who gets his throat ripped out had his scene cut - by the BBFC? All in all a thoroughly enjoyable watch and highly recommended.

Cracking review :D

I saw the uncut workprint version of it so I got all teh gore and there was no close ups of the throat being ripped out :)
 
Yes indeed the description on the tin proved correct, no unnecessary feeling or pussyfooting about. Rambo is wronged Rambo rights the wrong vigorously.Very satisfactory.
 
Got sent this today:

I don't know. We can say "What can you expect from a rambo film" but the first one is deceptively good. It's a taut psychological thriller. After that they turned to shash.
 
Saw this the other day. :D


Ludicrous but entertaining.

'Go home', I think he had a point. He should have mentioned the 200+ people he'd have to massacre if they got captured.
 
it can't be as bad as alien vs predator can it?
may give this a download as First Blood is one of me all time favs.

Picked it about a month ago. (It's great in SE asia for pirates :)).
Blood and guts all over the shant. Burmese army made out as a set of total twats into rape, torture and murder.
Bits of people get shot/bombed off every few seconds.
The SAS type in there is a crap advert for the British military. Think that was some sort of US revenge for their army rangers being a bunch of flower pressers.
(Sorry had to pop that in as they insulted the SAS first - cunts :D)
I wonder if it will ever come back to sting the US in the dick end as rambo 3 did with the hero Muslims. (sorry nasty terrorist muslims :D)

Not one for the children but as all these type of movies its a brain switched off and enjoy job.
 
at last!
i've downloaded it!!!

saw the opening sequence and lol!!!

will watch another 5 mins and see happens.

(plan is to watch 5mins a night).
 
First Blood was seriously a great film. I only recently found out it's adapted from a novel. The other two are just dumb fun but classic action movies nevertheless.

This, on the other hand, was just fucking garbage. I wish someone had warned me. I know you don't watch a film like this wanting or expecting a sophisticated plot but I didn't realise it was going to be so one-dimensional and pedestrian that it played out like a children's book! The other films had love and betrayal and ham fisted political rhetoric. It was all corny as hell but at least it was entertaining. This was just shit. When it finished I couldn't believe that was really it. Didn't Stallone write this rubbish? He must be fucking stupid. And he was surprised no one wanted to fund it? Take a fucking hint! Jesus, what a load of old shit.
