Not seen a thread of this so any fans of Rambo? Who watched the latest one already? Read many mixed reviews so far but one thing in common is that this particular one has many gory scenes. Thoughts?
Rambo’s niece gets kidnapped and sold into sex slavery by Mexicans. Rambo rescues her and the Cartel follow him back to America for a one man vs an army showdown.What's the plotline this time?
Sounds like a shit Taken.Rambo’s niece gets kidnapped and sold into sex slavery by Mexicans. Rambo rescues her and the Cartel follow him back to America for a one man vs an army showdown.
The first hour or so is a very shit Taken that makes little sense. The rest is like an extremely violent Home Alone and is decent.Sounds like a shit Taken.
Smelly foreigners kill/kidnap his dog/woman so he has to mass murder them all.What's the plotline this time?
They should've put that on the poster. That's something you might vaguely want to watch.The first hour or so is a very shit Taken that makes little sense. The rest is like an extremely violent Home Alone and is decent.
Well put.I hesitated, but I finally saw it.
Shameless piece of relentless self-righteous sadictic revenge. No apologies. It is what it is. Same way Rambo/Stallone adressed the "human rights being violated" in Burma with epic gore violence, here he adresses the problems of the Mexican frontier (drugs, kidnapping, slavery) with even more violence, because this time it's deeply personal.
It's a Rambo entry that certainly fits the Trump era, same way Rambo IV suited the W.Bush era and II and III Reagan's. Yes, Rambo is a self-righteous republican killing machine. Rambo is beyond Heaven or Hell. Rambo is about killing what a big portion of americans think of as "evil". Love it or hate it.
Solid 3 / 5.
I've read that Sly plans to set Rambo VI in an indian reserve. Dances With Wolves meets Rambo IV-V.Well put.
A little that I want to add here is the pacing of the movie is very off from the beginning. Its way to slow and has such a long build up but the last 30-40 minutes are full of action and gore.
A slow but solid brainless entertainment with absolutely nothing to add to the series 2/5.
Sly doesn´t even want to rule out another Rambo movie so I guess the next one could be more to the left, as John J will be in his retirement and living of his retirement plans only to find out that the system has bled them dry and nothing is left of these funds. Rambo goes to work on the financial institutes and government. That will be very very personal indeed.
