Rambo (2008)

[Movie 3 / Day 2]


The best Rambo movie since First Blood, indeed, probably the best Rambo movie (so far).

It's a return to the ultraviolent action movies not seen since the 80s, but also carries a message about the horrible state of affairs in Burma. Definitely worth a watch as long as you can stomach the blood and flying limbs (although if you could cope with Saving Private Ryan, you can probably cope with Rambo).

Stallone proves (again) that he can not only act, but can also write and direct. Why he insisted on making tripe like Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot is beyond me.

My rating: 7.8 / 10
IMDB rating: 7.4 / 10
Running time: 91 mins
