Rambo

The word "bloodbath" tends to get thrown around at every garden-variety onscreen massacre these days.

That said, Rambo is the closest you will experience to a churning soak in a Jacuzzi full of Type O-negative.

I didn't think to start counting when the movie started, but there are literally dozens of heads blown clean off in loving closeup. Every time a landmine blows, it sprays a blood-red geyser. Arms and legs are hacked away. People are fed to pigs. Our hero disembowels a bad guy and lets him roll downhill, his entrails flapping around like abdominal dreadlocks.

Sounds pretty violent. I'm not sure if this is a wait-for-video movie or not but I will definitely see it at some point

Shouldn't be any more explicit than say 300 or APOCALYPTO. I love the RAMBO concept, with so much outdoor photography in the series. This new one looks good from the trailer, but haven't read any reviews yet on the story, and how well it's "executed". But hey, we're talking Sylvester Stallone as John Rambo here. Enough said. ACTION FILLED FUN.

My dad keeps asking me when this will hit DVD. lol

I've had 2 friends tell me they wanna go see it this weekend and these guys haven't been to a cinema in years! :p

Hey it's Rambo, it's not going to be a movie with an incredible plot or anything. It's just fun seeing Rambo again as it was to see Rocky last year and Indiana Jones (obviously Harrison Ford) in a few months.

Good call Falcon - try to see it in a theater with DTS sound if available in your (Canadian) area.

How do you dare to compare Rambo and Rocky with Indy??? You crazy??

Hey I grew up with all these characters so they are ALL special to me

I can't wait for Indiana Jones though and I'm excited about Star Trek too. The hardest movie will be to watch The Dark Knight though

EDIT: Sorry it won't be hard to watch it but I think you know I mean.

Uh oh... just read my USA Today newspaper, and the reviewer is giving it 1 star (out of 4)...

"This RAMBO is way off-target. Stallone's latest fires and misses." - Claudia Puig

93 minutes, Directed by Sylvester Stallone
Rated R - for strong graphic bloody violence, sexual assaults, grisly images and language

-LH (The Loverboy)

Wasn't USA today the same newspaper that said Land of the Dead was a good film? Their opinion is pretty much worthless.
