First Blood is not the Rambo movie you would expect to see. The moral ambiguity of the film makes it much smarter and more subtle than its sequels. And the fantastic performance of Sylvester Stallone sells the whole picture.

It was ok. It was interesting at first but then it just turned into a full fledged action film that was rather pointless and unrealistic (plot wise). Overall it was decent.

First Blood. He thought the war was over for him. A great start to the new Sylvester Stallone franchise. You worry about his Rambo and you understand why he does certain things. In general, a good action movie.

I certainly felt on the side of the main character and it'd be hard not to be annoyed at the local sheriff, William Teasel. It was interesting how he reacted to the colonel who stepped in to try and save him from Rambo. The dynamics of the characters are good I suppose but of course this is, first and foremost/primarily, an action film. There are certainly some good explosions and chase scenes. I thought this was quite a good film I'd recommend. Expand

Great movie.
It holds so well year after year!
The sequels were awful, but the first one meant a milestone.

this is the best action thriller movie of all times, the best performance of Sylvester Stallone in my opinion the best of the trilogy. First Blood should win an oscar

I own them all and i like them all, but Rambo 2-4 are just "Lets Rambo kill hundreds of bad guys" without a real story. Rambo - first blood, shows a vietnam vet mocked without a reason by some Polivemen. Because of his experience during his prison in vietnam he starts raging and runs away from the cops and hides in the woods. The Cops start to act violently against him, until he starts to return the favour. In this movie Rambo avoids violence for a long time. Its not a blood and gorefest like the other parts. Thumbs up for one of the best true action movies. Good storytelling and good entertainement, without CG Explosions and stuff, needed in todays movies. Expand

Una de las mejores actuaciones de Stallone sobre todo en la escena final. Expand

Classic movie not only with some nice and intelligent action, but also with a good story, nice duell between Rambo and the police chief and a sad ending. Sylvester Stallone with a great performance

"Character actors! Who cares if we get fat?!"

From the stage, to the silver screen - Brian Dennehy is the type of talent that comes once in a life time. He played a hand full of roles. Larger than life, but still brilliant. I first saw him
"Character actors! Who cares if we get fat?!"

From the stage, to the silver screen - Brian Dennehy is the type of talent that comes once in a life time.

He played a hand full of roles. Larger than life, but still brilliant.

I first saw him in 'First Blood'. He and Stallone made that film a classic.

RIP

A great premise and a nice insight on the effects of war, but that was it. It was thrilling and suspenseful, I'll give it that. But other than that, the movie's action scenes where lackluster.

Una de las mejores películas de acción. Si bien es cierto que el ritmo de la película no esta muy bien logrado que digamos, la combinación entre venganza y malentendido la empuja para arriba.

I have seen this movie at least 20 times. For some reason I ended up watching this every time I get ill (go figure). But by far his best movie as it is even half believable and has a good plot.

Way more of a soft spoken action movie than I expected. Stallone probably only has 10 lines total, he gets a great scene to cook in at the end which was worth the wait.

[PTSD is pretty bad too.]
Stallone at his best, right after Rocky. Unlike Rocky, I don't have much love for the subsequent Rambo films.
