Movie Reviews of Rambo (Full Screen Edition)
Movie Review: Great to see on here the Reviews this movie deserves!!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
It's great to get on here and see reviews that do this amazing film justice!! I watched this dvd last night and I'm still blown away by what I saw, absolutely speechless! Most film critics gave this movie a very low rating and I have concluded that they are complete MORONS and the people (such that gave reviews on here) really matter and gave this film an accurate review. I've never payed much attention to film critics (you shouldn't either, they are liberal scumbags) but it saddens me to think how out of touch they are to good film-making. I've seen just about every war movie ever made and the brutality in this one sets a new standard, it's better than ANYTHING I've ever seen! It's not just gore for gore's sake but is shown to give the viewer a full sense of the horror of using knives and high powered weaponry against other human beings. This film is vicious, and I say that in giving it the best compliment possible. It's also a great humanitarian effor to show the atrocities of what has occured in Burma and what is happening at this very moment, Many thanks to Stallone for making this and I hope that idiotic critics don't dissuade him from future projects.
I would love to see what "School Boy's" .50 caliber sniper rifle would do to a critic's head, much like what you get to see happen to these low-life burma soldiers ;)
Summary of Rambo (Full Screen Edition)
The next chapter finds Rambo recruited by missionaries to protect them during a humanitarian aid effort on behalf of the persecuted Karen people of Burma. After the missionaries are taken prisoner by Burmese soldiers, Rambo gets a second impossible job: rescue the missionaries in the midst of a civil war.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.
