Trivialidades:

Originally, Rambo was supposed to hold the M2 .50 caliber machine gun in his hands and fire it, but when fully assembled the .50 weighed 120 lbs. Stallone was still capable of holding and firing it but it was too cumbersome for quick movements, so they mounted it on the back of a jeep instead.

Errores:

Errores Reales: When the sniper shots two guards, they get thrown backwards like three or four meters. This is against physics and not possible with any kind of light weapons such as pistols, rifles and even 12,7 mm anti-aircraft.

Citas:

Sarah: What do we do?
School Boy: Nothing we can do.

An modern 80s action movie that pulls no punches.

Rambo is an 80s-style action movie with modern sensibilities. Stallone is not a one-man army as in previous movies but rather a dogged old soldier that comes to terms with what he actually is while racking up a body count that would make Tarintino proud. In many ways, this movie parallels Rocky Balboa as a mature ending to a series of sometimes over-the-top but fun action movies. John Rambo in this movie is an aging but potent killing machine that for the first time since First Blood accomplishes his mission in a very believable manner. The action is visceral and downright gory at times surpassing the hard-core scenes of Omaha Beach in Saving Private Ryan. The film pulls no punches when showing exactly what a Barret .50 caliber sniper rifle can do to a human body. Stallone mutters only a very few lines of dialog in this movie... there's no speeches or patriotic flag waving going on here but there is a clear lesson on how well liberal idealism holds up under barbaric realities amid genocide and war.

A must see but not one for the kiddies.
