What Did you Think About the New Rambo Movie?!
Question: I just Watched this movie and heard alot of people thought it was to violent and that the scenes in the movie where women and childeren were getting slaughtered was way to much but i think you are wrong i know rambo is not real
but when sylvestor stallone made this movie he made a film where he told us how horrible war can really be
i think we are stuck in our suburban homes to busy to understand such horrible acts that happen in the rest of the world. we sit in front of our tv's watching some kids in a poor country and a jolly old fat white man telling us we should send money maybe 7 cents a day can help feed a starving child.
i dunno i just think that this new rambo movie is very well made. the violence is not glorified as i keep being told but shown so we can understand what these people go thru.

one of his best movies ever
that and Rocky Balboa (rocky 6)
great ending on both for the two series's
...although I thought that the film was at least on some acceptable level, quite entertaining and satisfying, I felt that the film had a definate measure of unintentional humor and campiness about it (...I mean, just how old IS Stallone, anyways???). The unrealistic-looking CGI bloodshed appeared more cartoonish than the real deal, which has been done many times before, and more effectively, using mechanical and prosthetic especial effects. I find it also very hard to fathom, that after all of these years, ever since the events which have transpired all the way back to the first film, that Rambo is still clueless and gullible enough to get suckered into yet another 'against all odds' mission, by deceptive people, who ultimately have some other alterior or underlining purpose, other than what they claim, when they first offer/approach Rambo. Despite Rambo's penchance for once again (...as always) winning out in the end, I also felt that the 'in order to survive war, you gotta become war' attitude has long become tedious, old and stale, kinda like having the same flavor of soup, day in and day out, for 20 years straight. In addition, there have definitely been greater and more poignant & meaningful films made over the past several decades, which have expounded the horrors and inhumanity of war....far greater than what "Rambo" even hinted at; in fact, in examining the gammut of films, which have featured the 'Rambo' character, the first film seemed to emphasize the horrors of war, the most (...surprising, as the first film was directly based upon a very applicable, poignant and descriptive novel), whereas the rest of the films were merely war-exploitive, head-numbing, entertaining pulp adventure 'popcorn' films
Ironically, not unlike the way that Rambo was suckered, the filmmakers themselves have taken advantage of the character, and suckered us audiences into believing that yet another movie excursion with this character would be viable, much as they did with the last two sequels, and as a result, they have blown off the dust, and knocked off the mothballs on this character, once again; I mean, really, for those who have read the original David Morrell novel, "First Blood", John Rambo actually dies at the end of the book...
Ultimately, was the film entertaining??? Yes, to a certain degree, and on a level probably not intended by the filmmakers. Did we really need it??? Nah, I probably could have done without it!!!
