Rambo (2008)
9/10
The perfect Rambo movie!
28 June 2012
Warning: Spoilers
This is like what would happen if you took the first 2 movies and mixed them in a blender. You get the dark and realistic tone of First Blood and you get the balls to the wall action of Rambo: First Blood Part 2. Ya Stallone is 62 years old in this movie, but who cares? He's still got the chops to be a complete monster on screen. And who could forget that amazing action scene at the end with him on the back of that jeep mowing down everyone with a .50 caliber machine gun? One of the best action scenes in a movie. And the movie ends on just the perfect note. If there is something Stallone knows how to do right is make up his previous films and end them right. Rocky 5 ended the Rocky series on a dissatisfying note and Rocky Balboa ended it the right way. Same with Rambo. Rambo 3 ended Rambo on a dissatisfying note and Rambo ended it the right way. This is why I love Stallone. He cares about his work.

Overall, if you have not seen this movie, go see it. Is it the best Rambo movie? No, that's still First Blood. Is it the best action Rambo movie? Yes! If not his best action movie ever made! Final Rating: 9/10
