Rambo (2008)
10/10
Review of Rambo, *wonderful wonderful spoilers*
25 January 2008
Warning: Spoilers
I don't care what critics say, this movie was GREAT! The villains were people you didn't like at all, not even a little, in fact, I WANTED EVERY ONE OF THEM TO DIE! And that is really what a great action villain should be, nothing else. And Rambo delivered by killing what seemed like a whole country full of them.

From the very first shot of this movie you know it's gonna be good. The first thing you see is the villains killing innocent people and seeming to be invincible while they do it. Until Rambo meets the first group of them they inspire fear in everyone who see's them. Dialgue is nice for artsy movies, but this is a movie that knows actions speak much louder than words.

Which brings us to Rambo himself who looks like he's only gotten meaner since he wiped out an entire soviet army in Rambo III. He moves very slowly for the first part of the movie, making the audience think if he has any fight left in him... until out of nowhere he kills a boat full of RIVER PIRATES! From there we get lessons on why even the best Christians need to kill every now and then, why the toughest mercenaries in the world are chew toys next to Rambo, and, of course, the greatest lesson of all, if you get in Rambo's way, your gonna get SHOT BLOWN UP DECAPITATED CRIPPLED DECINTIGRATED AND GUTTED LIKE A FISH!! Man, this movie made me feel great, I felt, uplifted. Like, your down on your luck and a sweet sweet angel with muscles like trees comes down and kills an entire army just to make you happy.

THIS MOVIE GETS THE Oscar. forget no country for old men, if Rambo was in that movie he would have killed that annoying foreign guy in thirty seconds!

A good fun movie.

These are the kinds of movies I loved, and still love growing up. Unlike big budget movies that crate huge plot holes and never acknowledge them. This movie takes in all in stride and just makes something you can sit back and enjoy.

There was some film student earlier that complained it wasn't A list material. But that is not the point. The point of this movie is that no everyone likes huge CGI Cliché' filled movies. There are a lot of people who like movies that are meant to just entertain you, and not get as much money as they can.

Besides, its also nice to know that good ol' Bruce isn't dead yet.

Wow this was funny. And very original. There were no superpoweres used in the movie, it was all about the personal lives and struggles with the hero's themselves. Very good.

Just dont go looking for a lot of action, this movie is built more around personal drama and comedy. This isnt for everyone, but those who understand it will enjoy it.
