After Rocky and its sequels, Sylvester Stallone cast about for another character that would bring him the same kind of box-office hit--and found it in disillusioned Vietnam vet John Rambo in First Blood, a solid little action thriller. So when all else failed, Stallone went back to the same well in hopes of recapturing the same commercial success. Which this film did. But where First Blood was a no-nonsense thriller that pitted Stallone against a worthy (and not necessarily bad) Brian Dennehy, this one is a sadistic chest-thumper in which Rambo gets to go back to Vietnam: ostensibly, he's there to rescue missing POWs, but in fact the movie was a lame excuse for him to refight the Vietnam War--and win. Audiences ate up the cruel Vietcong (and their Russian manipulators) and Stallone's bogus heroics, but it was strictly by-the-numbers action. --Marshall Fine

Rating:  - Reagan-era revenge fantasy
Rambo (Sylvester Stallone) is emancipated by Col. Trautman (Richard Crenna) from the prison camp where he is serving time and sent back to Nam to gather evidence of the existence of POWs. Problem is, the "government," as embodied by a square-jawed tool named Marshall Murdock (Charles Napier), doesn't want anyone to be found.
This stunningly illogical piece of garbage trots out all the reliable boogeymen of Cold War Reagan-era America: evil Russians, loathsome Asians, and two-faced bureaucrats (government is the problem). I'm not sure that Rambo's mission even makes any sense except perhaps as a piece of intra-governmental propaganda since a convicted criminal's failure to find evidence of abandoned MIAs could hardly be expected to be persuasive to the general public. Rambo's enemies conveniently show up where needed so that they can fall into his clutches, and the two Russians who torture Rambo, a lieutenant colonel (Steven Berkoff) and his sadistic henchman (Voyo Goric), also turn out to be the two helicopter pilots that he faces in a dogfight later. The filmmakers have loads of fun blowing up a Vietnamese village, which would no doubt result in the deaths of numerous peasants, thereby demonstrating why the natives might not be so appreciative of our efforts to "liberate" them.
Rating:  - Mixed Reviews
I just want to say, I have no mixed reviews for this movie
I have seen rambo 1-3 and I would have to say this one is my favorite. The first one built up to part 2. And the third one had more stealth, but this one was just perfect. It had almost over 25 explosions in one scene alone and had him hide in the bushes and get people that way (as in the first) and I think that's just awesome the way he does it. This movie had one of my favorite scenes in movie history. After he was being tortured and was forced to talk to his command station, all hell breaks loose.

really a good remake of Rambo 2, the best in the series in my opinion. clear and fine in HD. the only step back i had was my wish to see arabic subtitle, so i can i enjoy it with friends who do not speak english. but i guess thats the same problem with all new blue ray titles.
Rating:  - He Went Home!
