Heres what one review said: "This is not a movie for children"
hmmm.really? what gave that away? maybe this?
"R for strong graphic bloody violence, sexual assaults, grisly images and language."
As far as Rambo goes - cool as hell. Rambo is not for people who want to see real time war stuff. You know how he rolls: starts off nice, gets beat up on, gets pissed and then takes out an entire army or two.
Classic Rambo in all its gory glory. Good stuff.
I looked at some old ratings and why are some silly mouthshut members rating this movie low? what did you expect from this movie stallone is 61.He aint 30, why are expecting high stuff from a 61 year old?
This is the final chapter. Rambo is finally forced to deal with not only his gift of war but the simple fact that he has been running from anything resembling home. I saw the movie at the midnight showing and yes it is a grafic movie but a true look at the cold face of war. In this country we do not see the hard evidence. This is the movie that will give Rambo an outlet to vent his fire.
had my suspicions before I went to see this movie why it was panned by many critics. After I saw it my suspicions were confirmed. This film violates two of the most important un-written rules of Criticdom:
- Christians/Christianity is shown in a positive light. The heroes of the film are missionaries from a Church in Colorado who risk all to help some village in Burma. They volunteered to bring medicine and the Word of God while laying all on the line. Showing anything positive in film about Church or Jesus will get you an automatic thumbs down. Anybody knows they must be made the villians or some far-out cult to get a positive critical review. A simple study of the film history of the past 30 years will confirm this well-known fact.
If that wasnt enough Sylvester violated the second most important rule of the Critics:
- The villain in this film was a homosexual. This could put being Gay in a negative light. This flies in the face of all politically correct film making. Violating this is enough to bring down the wrath of the entire industry.
My only question is: Did the Critics come up with these rules in some closed door meeting at the Sundance or Cannes Film festival? Or worse, is it just "grass roots" arising out of a liberal mindset?
Sylvester Stallone has been around Hollywood long enough to know these rules. He went ahead and bucked the system. He should get another Medal of Honor.
