rambo ......reviewed

Published Jun 1, 2008

 This Film was good!

 John Rambo (SYLVESTER STALLONE) has retreated to northern Thailand, where he's running a longboat on the Salween River. On the nearby Thai-Burma (Myanmar) border, the world's longest-running civil war, the Burmese-Karen conflict, rages into its 60th year.

As a lover of action-shoot-em-up films, I enjoyed the original Rambo movie.  Then Rambo II and III came out, and they proved, well, not worth watching.

I  brought home the new Rambo DVD this past weekend only becuase it was the only new release available (at the local BlockBuster), in Blu-Ray.  Wow... were we suprised!

 Albeit a lot of graphic (especially at 1080p) violence, and the typical bad guy gets it at the end, the film was without a doubt the best in the series!

I cannot wait to see this. I did enjoy the first one, like you and the other two were...just ok. I guess it goes without saying..that Rambo is like fine wine...It get's better with time. Thanks for the heads up!

Cliff Hanger was good also. I like to see this one too.

You know, I walked past this one at BLockbuster last week based largely on II and III. (The first one has a lot of subtext that makes it worth watching.)

I'll stop next time and give it a try.

This movie rocked. I couldn't go to bed after seeing it. I wanted to watch it again that night.

I like all of his 'Rambo' movies, especially when he learned how to talk.

I wish I had two more hands so I could give it four thumbs up...hahaha. I enjoyed it.

Saw it this weekend..Very good action movie!!..

Lots of good combat action! John Rambo is starting to show his age but his 500 to 0 kill ratio is still hanging in there. If only I could shoot my bow that fast and accurately, make Robin Hood look like a novice!

Hi there: I've added your review to the GOLO DVD and movie reviews collection. Keep them coming, and thanks! -Angela
