Rambo (2008) reminds me of the most memorable parts of First Blood, and the most entertaining parts of its sequels.

I'll tell you where he is: In the forests of Burma kicking butt and being a raw savage as he always is! This film is excitingly adventurous and violent, but does it offer more of a challenge for tough-as-nails John Rambo? I don't know... But what I do know is that the extraction squad in this film was relentless and stealthy. Talk about a tough job. Saving a few missionaries within an army of Burmese soldiers who are witlessly dangerous and scary isn't an easy assignment. Nevertheless, the warriors and heroes in this film fought like heck to make it out alive and made this film an action-packed, 90 minute banger. Two thumbs up.… Expand

Rambo: First things first yes I love action movies like the ones from the 80s because it's all practical effects that's why l love this movie franchise and it continues with this movie.

Sure the story isn't too bad but we all watch these movies to see Stallone kick some ass and he delivers on it. All the kills in this movie are great because of how evil they made everyone from killing people in cold blood and killing their children. This movie does not sugarcoat the war that he has to go through and it all leads up to the best finale because he is on a 50 Cal mowing down enemies everywhere.… Expand

Finally Rambo is not alone killing everyone, but in a team and therefore more realistic. Stallone plays his character perfectly and interesting. The setting is good, the atmosphere and music are also well done. And the movie is not so politically correct like the 2 before, there are even some nice political incorrect dialogues.

There are only little problems: the story could be more detailed, especially some explanations for some behaviours are missing or too superfically written. In addition the movie could be a little bit longer.… Expand

Rambo (2008) took a long break.

After the third part, which I personally like, but it was not so well received by other people, it is understandable that they simply said that it would like to wait a while, invent something and create some solid seed that people will like. So was it worth waiting for those long years for the new film Ramba? Well, hard to say. As people's reviews say, yes. The film was a success and yes, I liked it too, but not so much that I would have liked it during the waiting time. It's even the weakest part of the series in my opinion, but that's my opinion. The film works great in one thing and that is that it's simply not as frantic as the previous ones. It didn't take long in the previous films and we immediately got a proper event, which we somehow managed to devour. Here we will wait for some time before one starts and thus create space for a deeper story. To put it bluntly, or at least I don't think the story is anything extra, but I'm glad that the film took its time to salt all the action, but it has one catch, at least in my eyes. The point is, it will end quickly. Yes, it means that the film runs away quickly and is not boring, which is good, but I mean that you are just waiting for some event here and it will happen. That's right and it's delicious. But as soon as it happens, it is soon over. I'm not saying it wasn't enough. Not that. The event was great, but it just started to go and it ended. Otherwise, after a long wait, we got a good film, which I recommend especially to lovers of the event. Those who expect a good story may be disappointed. This is mainly the event, which is a long-standing classic in the Rambo series. For me, a good film that I recommend.… Expand

This is the second best Rambo movie. A movie that could go wrong, but Stallone looked deeper into just making another bloody action movie in the vein of the previous two from many years back.
The story is very simple, Rambo being talked intoThis is the second best Rambo movie. A movie that could go wrong, but Stallone looked deeper into just making another bloody action movie in the vein of the previous two from many years back.
The story is very simple, Rambo being talked into bringing a handful christian missionaries deep into conflicted Burma, manages to do so, but all go so horribly wrong for the group of missionaries. Rambo gets called into another trip of boating up a group of trained soldiers with a mission to try to free them. Rambo, on the other side of the river decides to track behind them because his instinct tells him it will go wrong. The rest is not hard to figure out.
So what make this movie so good if the story is so linear.
The answer is the brutal honesty of it. Stallone, did not just wanted to make a action movie, rather, he wanted to bring a political message to show how the long standing conflict in Burma has resulted in years of genocide.
With this road taken, there was no option to show how bloody and brutal war can be. And it resulted into a peak PG18 movie where Stallone are not sugarcoating anything about the Burmese military junta savage methods.

The movie paces very well along. and ends into some of the best scenes in war action movies. A solid return of the Rambo formula with a message more clear than ever. Back into the jungle where John Rambo belongs.… Expand

Rambo is not a perfect film, but its reviews truly do not belay its quality. Some of the major outlets got the film, but we were just entering the PC phase that has now turned itself over and inside out.

This film is really brutal, and itRambo is not a perfect film, but its reviews truly do not belay its quality. Some of the major outlets got the film, but we were just entering the PC phase that has now turned itself over and inside out.

This film is really brutal, and it will turn off some people. That doesn't mean that it's not realistic in places. The dialogue is mostly good with some funny one liners. There are a few questionable sequences, but you can only ask so much out of an action film. It's not better than the first, but it is right up there, and entirely more visceral. It blows most action films out of the water, which is hilarious since a lot of top critics you see that gave negative reviews for this film would give some of the worst Bond films and Comic Book films positive scores. I get that Rambo is not for the faint of heart, but it has a decent story with likeable characters for the most part. It is basically a kind of Predator film in that way, except the monster is a ruthless dictator.

At any rate it also has some beautiful shots of Burma, and the overall quality of the film is sharp and colorful. The night sequences are well done, and altogether there are only a few action films that are better than this one in the last decade. Period.… Expand

Stallone is great as usual, presenting us a character that we all love from the 80's, but everyone else is very one-dimensional. When you watch a Rambo movie, though, you don't care about the story, you care about the action. And there's plenty of it here. There's tons of blood, flying body parts, and exploding heads.

It has more in common with Saving Private Ryan or Black Hawk Down than something like Die Hard or Terminator. It's a film about soldiers - and what they have to endure to make sure the rest of us can sleep safe at night. (In fact, listen carefully to the music near the end of the movie. There are several pieces that are very similar the to music played at the beginning of Saving Private Ryan) As Rambo himself said to the mercenaries, "This is what we do. This is who we are. Live for nothing, or die for something." And there's nothing wrong with that.… Expand

I really enjoyed it. Stallone is a man with moral as well as physical courage--he has the cajones to say that when dealing with evil men it takes more than appealing to their better nature.

While the ability of one man to survive such events is all Hollywood, the underlying story and violence is probably illustrated more accurately in this movie than any other fake propane explosion that Hollywood has ever created. This is what it feels like to see people ripped to pieces by high explosives and large caliber bullets. As a fan of well done action, this war movie is without peer. Talk to some of the folks coming home from Iraq who have been too close to an IED or had to pick up what was left of Pat Tillman. As for the acting, it was just what the story called for. Characters close to caricature but not so simple as to be ridiculous or unsympathetic. There is more entertainment and REAL message in this short film than all six of the last Star Wars and the Lord of the Rings films.

If you want action, here you go. Rambo is not a good all around movie, but when you go to a Stallone film, is your first thought, "I hope there is a solid plot" NO! You want action, and Rambo serves it on a golden platter.

Wow, what a ride. Rambo offers an unadulterated, boiled down depiction of the warlord-driven and uncontrolled human rights situation in many countries in the world today.

Rambo offers an unadulterated, boiled down depiction of the warlord-driven and uncontrolled human rights situation in many countries in the world today. Rambo is stoic and statuesque in his actions, but in my opinion, making him all the more bad ass. The violence in this movie is gruesome and sometimes overwhelming, but never gratuitous. The basic message is that war sucks, and it is here to stay. The only reason this movie got a 9 instead of 10 is that sometimes the dialogue is poorly executed (mainly the group of missionaries), but in every other way this movie is awesome. Don't listen to the critics: this is bad ass at it's best.… Expand

The whole movie can summed up like this: Intro, meet major characters (15 mins). Plot line 1 (15 mins) Plot twist which drives the rest of the movie.

Plot line 1 (15 mins) Plot twist which drives the rest of the movie. (5 mins) The rest of the film is one big action scene (35 very fast minutes) into 5 minute conclusion (roll credits, queue laughter) The interaction between good old John R and the female do gooder, set the pace for the movie. Her "negotiation" to get Rambo to take them up river is all of 4 lines of dialog and 30 seconds of screen time. I exaggerate slightly, but this is a common flaw of the Film. The plot is simple, to be expected. Which is why I don't understand the lack of any sort of character development beyond the superficial first impression we're given. It feels like the movie was constructed to rush us through the ride like a bad amusement park. Everything just starts and ends way too quickly. I was just getting into the movie when the credits rolled. What I saw, I really enjoyed. The action was fast and gory like a classic 1980's movie. No sign of bad CGI. The targets of Rambo's rage all explode into red oatmeal like goop. What action there was, they did a great job with It was simply way too short to get higher than an 8.… Expand
