From Amazon.com:
If you've been wondering what ever happened to ex?Green Beret superwarrior John Rambo since he singlehandedly shot up a Pacific Northwest town (First Blood, 1982), returned to the jungles of 'Nam to free U.S. POWs held long after war's end (Rambo: First Blood Part II, 1985), and interrupted the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan long enough to blow lots of stuff up and rescue his old commandant from the Reds (Rambo III, 1988), then Rambo (2008) is for you. Without so much as a IV to dilute the brand name, Rambo--which is what most of us called the second, most iconic film in the series--may aspire to open a new era for a pop legend. But it's a thoroughly mechanical attempt to reanimate a franchise that, absent the anger, frustration, and self-loathing of the post-Vietnam years, has no meaning or purpose. For some time now Rambo (Sylvester Stallone) has been putt-putting along the Thai-Burmese border in a longboat, catching exotic snakes to sell. As for the 60-year civil war in Burma between the brutal government and the Karen independence movement, he ignores it. Enter a party of American missionaries whose dewy blond spokeswoman (Dexter's Julie Benz) asks Rambo to haul them upriver so that they can bring medical aid to the insurgents. After the requisite number of monosyllabic refusals, he does. Soon afterward the do-gooders are in a world of hurt, and he's summoned to lead a squad of mercenaries on a rescue mission.
As storytelling, the latest Rambo is the most bare-bones of the bunch. Rambo has little to say, so it's especially galling that Stallone, as director and co-writer, obliges him to have essentially the same conversation at three different points (the final distillation: "Live for nothing or die for something"). The Burmese army goons seem in competition to commit the most hideous atrocity (e.g., child skull-crushing underfoot), the better to justify the eventual, lovingly protracted spectacle of them being eviscerated by high-powered weaponry. Although shot in Thailand, the movie has mostly been photographed in brown, reducing any particular sense of place but, perhaps, perversely increasing our gratitude for the splashes of purple whenever hot metal tatters flesh. --Richard T. Jameson

Better than expected -  |
Rambo DVD Review |
|
I wanted to hate this movie so much, but came away having been throughly entertained (in an extremly violent way) for 90 minutes. It was a blood splattered 90 minutes but it was better than I expected.
Rambo has retired to Thailand, but he's still in top shape. Stallone of course is still in good shape aged 60. I won't discuss steroids at this point.... A group of missionaries are trying to helped the sick and wounded in Burmah. The people are living under a military regime which is brutal in the extreme. The missionaries are captured and Rambo ultimataly helps a group of mercenaries to get them out. The body count is vast, it might be a record for I know. If you have any problems with watching bloody scenes I'd give this film a miss as there are a great many which involve huge blood loss! The ending is well done, taking you full circle back to First Blood from 1982. However making comparisons with that film are a mistake as it isn't in the same class. The main reason is a lack of another major character to support Stallone. In First blood we had the always excellent Brian Denehy as the local Sheriff, in Rambo there's nobody. However overall I shall be quite happy to watch this again when the circumstances |

The Best Rambo yet -  |
Rambo DVD Review |
|
This is without a doubt the best movie in the Rambo series. It shows more depth to the character, than any of the Rambo's. The ending is how fans of he Rambo series would want it to end. It plain felt good.
The fighting scenes are graphic, but the movie rating should tell you this was going to be rough. It's an 'A' movie, and a good job from Stallone. If you're not into the genre, you're probably thinking 'What the heck does he mean 'A' movie. No way. Simple answer for those that feel that way, 'just don't watch it'! For those of us who are, watch it over and over. It never seems to get old. |

Living hand to mouth in south East Asia John Rambo
doesn't want to get mixed up in the civil war in Burma. A beautiful Christian missionary changes all that. Can one old guy make a difference against just another set of military bad guys who live off killing and stealing from their own people? In many cases the US Government has given uniforms, weapons and tanks to just this sort of people in the name of regional stability. US tax dollars at work in the world, you ask? In another daring raid into enemy territory... the end is pretty predictable. In a time of another unpopular war Rambo is back, because people need heroes. |

Rambo DVD Review |
|
To keep it short, this movie has a great story. It's also absorbing and realistic, with up to date special effects. There is also good character development. The movie kept me on the edge of my seat. Some movie critics may not like Stallone, however, I think he plays these "action" roles very very well. He doesn't have to use a lot of words, because the few words he uses are meaningful, powerful, and pertinent to the movie. I am confident you will enjoy the movie, like I did! I purchased the movie from Amazon, and it was shipped by Movie Revolution in MN. They gave me good service! |
