Everything Wrong With First Blood in 13 Minutes or Less 

Fun Fact: There’s nothing wrong with First Blood Part 1

Seriously though, Stallone's acting in the end segment of Rambo is fucking incredible. Intense, passionate and believable. He seriously kills, no pun intended, and it's easily his best role after Rocky.

Rambo has no regard to safety? What about when Rambo said “look at the road not me, that’s how accidents happen.”

His acting in that last scene deserves every sin taken off

"I didn't come to rescue Rambo from you. I came here to rescue you from him." Best line of the whole movie

I'm from hope, where they filmed rambo and I can say for certain that there is in fact that many gas stations on one road. Also fun fact the owner of the gas station that the blew up was going out of business so he sold the station to the movie people and they actually blew the whole thing up. People from town got to watch, it was quite the event for our little town.

00:53 - On the sign leading into town, “1858” is the year it was founded, “1958” was the town’s centennial. In other words, the sign was built for the town’s centennial celebration in 1958.

People forget how dramatic and grounded first blood was, due to the over the top action in the rest of the franchise. It's a Rambo movie with only one death!

Teasle dislikes Rambo because he sees the Vietnam vets questioning the war and everything. Teasle is a vet of Korea and there is a type of generational gap and he feels Rambo as a veteran of Vietnam is disrespecting his country and army. Rambo's "Nothing Is Over!" speech was both greatly written and brilliantly acted. It symbolizes a broken veteran from a hopeless war. His friends are gone all he has is himself. Without anyone around his nightmares and PTSD haunt his broken mind until he can break down and let it out. One of if not the most accurate representations of a traumatized soldier.

David Caruso: "We ain't huntin' him, (puts on glasses) he's huntin' us!" YEEEEAAAAH!

-1 Sin for "If you're going to send that many men, don't forget one thing." "What?" "A good supply of body bags."

If anyone's wondering, the original reasoning for Teasle being a dick to Rambo was present in the book. It was primarily because Teasle had been a Korean War Vet (you can actually see his medals and patches in his office), and was a bit jealous of the Vietnam Vets, as the WW2 Vets were hailed as heroes, and the Vietnam Vets were scorned, but him as his fellow Korea Vets returned to essentially nothing, along with a bit of power tripping over someone he saw as inviting trouble to the town (if not by causing trouble himself, then by inviting other drifters to the town who would inevitably cause trouble)

The speech he gives at the end where he has a mental breakdown deserves at least 10 sins off.

0:09 *there is nothing to sin* Cinema sins: *sins anyway*

Stallones delivery of the speech at the end is one of the highlights of his career. The emotional trauma that a War Vet has to endure is perfectly portrayed by this performance. Excellent scene

I love that having David Caruso in the movie is a sin. They really had to make shit up to get sins from this masterpiece.

"NOTHING IS OVER! NOTHING! YOU JUST DON'T TURN IT OFF!!" Literal goosebumps every time.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with first blood it's a great movie

Funfact: Something like this ACTUALLY HAPPENED in Germany recently. A man called Yves Rausch disarmed 4 police officers using nothing but a bow and basically the entire German police was hunting him down for weeks in the Schwarzwald forest. So it's actually not all that insane to think the cops would mobilize in that time and those numbers because of such an incident.

"I don't care how noisy these military trucks are on the inside, you would definitely hear the sound of a grown-ass man jumping on top of it." Wrong, cinema sins, wrong.

"Sin on me I guess" Hol up

You crossed the line on this one this film is sacred .

I like how Teasle is worried that with Rambo entering his town, they'll soon have a whole bunch of vagrants. What is he afraid Rambo will do? Tell his friends??? Because everyone knows how social and communicating vagrants are.

CS: Logos, sinned! CS: No logos, sinned Me: You’ve gone mad with power, sir....

So, in the novel it was explained that the sheriff was a Korean War vet and was angry that while the Vietnam Vets got more time and attention and the Korean War vets were pretty much forgotten about. Hope this helps and loved the F/X reference. Maybe that could be a future episode, just saying...

Another film where nothing is wrong. Turn in your “Man Card”, CinemaSins.

I appreciate that you removed a sin for the scene near the end where Rambo breaks down, I respect that.

I can assure you with years of living in small mountain towns that the sheriff's portrayal in this movie is 100% lore accurate!

I scream "nothing is over" when I am down to my last dollar in Monopoly.....

Objection to the tiny town of Hope having four gas stations... The actual town of Hope, B.C. (in Canada where this was filmed) has a PILE of gas stations because it's on the Trans-Canada Highway and is the last gas stop before going over the Coastal Mountain range. Also, the log arch was real.

You didn't know Godfathers Pizza is a pizza franchise. I love it.

Everything wrong with First Blood in one word: Nothing!

Funny part is Hope, British Columbia, Canada hasn’t changed that much since Rambo except the bridge being gone.

This is totally a low key Christmas movie! Police station, bar scene & the town r decked out!

5:39 I've heard of people being scared so bad, their hair turned white. In this case, it looks like the reverse happened. The sheriff ended up so stressed and scared from the fall, his hair turned black/brown.

Heart of the story: *He just wanted a SANDWICH!*

Releasing a sins video before or after a related or sequel movie comes out in theater -Cliche *DING*

Great movie, great acting, great action, great location and a wonderful soundtrack. On top of that it has historical relevance.

“To live off the land. To eat things that would make a Billy Goat puke. “ 😂😂😂

That last scene when Rambo talks about his PTSD always makes me choke up a little.

Just wrong. It should be "Everything right with First Blood" and then a full video of the film.

Godfather Pizza has been a Pacific Northwest pizza chain for as long as I can remember.

Last scene was the best acting performance of Stallone, ever!

I remember asking my dad why the cop was being such an ass to Rambo. He said at the time Vietnam vets were not very popular coming home. Many homeless vets were cast out of towns and shunned due to people thinking they “lost the war.” Pretty sad and shitty how people can turn their backs on those who served.

Doesn't take a genius to infer that the sign was erected in 1958 to commemorate the centenary of the town being founded.

Dude you are hilarious! You had me crying laughing. I haven't had a gut busting laugh since i watched my last stand-up vid......

Love the commentary! Keep it coming.

Actually in a small American town is precisely where one would find every breed of hunting dog imaginable.

Cinema sins when there’s logos: 1 sin Cinema sins when there’s no logo: spasm then 1 sin

Another great performance by Brian Dennehy. Rip big guy!

A big mistake for me is when Rambos position is identified by his radio conversation with Trautman and Teasle says hes gonna put every man he has on that ridge at first light and get Rambo. Special forces do most of their work and movement undercover of darkness, Rambo would move immediately and be 10 miles away by first light.

When Stallone says “get out of the way” while riding the motorcycle I realized that is probably the only time he isn’t mumbling, talking slowly, or talking quietly

Wait. No negative sins for no logos? That should be worth -20 minimum!

5:30 "Wait, that fucking worked?!?!"....LMAO

Rambos speech at the end was awesome. Relatable and made u feel sorry for the guy, even tho sometimes I didn't understand what he was saying 😅

"They started it, Sir.. They drew first Sin.."

Teasel was a Korean War Vet and that was called “The forgotten war”. Rambo was a Vietnam Vet. I’m sure that had something to do with the hate Teasel felt for Rambo which is why he pushed Rambo so far.

In the year 2050... Rambot: "They drew first oil!"

I can't stop laughing this was the best thing I ever seen

Thank you for taking a sin off for " NOTHING IS OVER!!"

This really is one of the most underrated movies of all time.

You guys killed it, mad respect for this video

I have probably already commented on this, but that sin removed should have removed at least 10 sins. That monologue is epic.

First Blood: Best movie Rambo First Blood Part II: Personal favorite Rambo III: Just have fun with it Rambo: HOLY SHIT!!! Rambo Last Blood: Check it out in theaters, folks!

One of the great movies of the 80s. A great movie period!!!

You should do one of " Everything wrong with CinemaSins "

The cop Messes with him because many people thought that the Vietnam war was not supposed to happen therefore veterans were treated poorly

The hose down scene was actually quite common to de-louse the homeless to prevent infestations of the jail

When you give first blood a sin for copying die hard with the Christmas theme, but first blood came out before die hard...

Awesome movie.. True classic. "They drew first blood"

"Cool,, looks like Rambo ALSO use to work at a pastry shop before joining the hunger games!" 😂🤣🤣😭👍

0:57 The most probable explanation is that the arch was built to commemorate the town's centennial.

1. He was a Korea vet, and didn't like Vietnam vets. It was basically a "my war has a bigger d*** than your war" issue. 2. They actually used to hose off people like that. Because of body lice mostly. Stallone said in the commentary it was extremely unpleasant. The hose pressure was just as high as it looks, and it kept blowing off the scar makeup. So they had to keep reshooting it. 3. The movie takes place in the 70s. The novel was written in 72, so it may even be set in the 60s. 4. It's a lumber town, they have to deal with lumberjacks. Stallone told a funny story in the commentary about going into a lumberjack bar and ordering some high class drink that shattered any pretense he had to be being as bad a** as he looked, and booking it because things were getting tense with the locals. 5. Those are hunting dogs. People in rural areas hunt. 6. The stuff in the woods takes place at night. Everything else happens the next day. I wont deny that the movie has some issues with making the timeline clear, but it isn't so bad that you can't tell that the first day takes place starting in the afternoon, they try to track him down around dusk and into the night. Everything else happens the second day. 7. The gas stations are there to support all the trucks. It's also on a main highway, and people stop to get gas when they're driving along highways.

Totally Agree with the Sly acting part. That last dialogue scene in First Blood was Epic!

I don't agree with this video at all, but it's still entertaining.

As some one who lives in a tiny town, it is perfectly normal for there to be that many gas stations right next to each other. It's nothing but diners and gas stations.

Sins for having intro logos. Sins for NOT having intro logos. Don't ever change, CinemaSins

This is my favourite movie of all time I just realised by the comments I’m maybe not the only one. This video should have been called * Taking the piss out of an iconic movie in 13 minutes and 57 seconds * Let it go before I give you war you won’t believe! Let it go !

This movie was legitimately good. It’s a shame it became an action movie franchise

That last monologue is Stallone's best acting moment. Good stuff.

What confused me about this movie was near the beginning, when Teasle gave Rambo a ride through town; Rambo says he's going north so Teasle supposedly drives him north. Then Rambo says he's going to Portland, in which Teasle points out is south. Yet when Teasle drops off Rambo at the bridge, Teasle says 'Portland, straight ahead'. That makes no sense. Did they do a U-turn somewhere in the middle of town and start driving south?

Loved this. Sounds bites so funny at thee end. Please watch the whole video.

I always fall down a rabbit 🐇 whole with these videos 😂

3:52 I've seen this 100 times....the only reason he pops a wheelie here and in a couple other places, is because that's not Sly. They had to find SOME way to cover his face! Lol

The underlying theme of this movie is that the cop is a Korean war vet, and I guess at that time there was a lot of resentment from the Great War generation at how Vietnam war vets lost the war; conversely, the Vietnam vet was also a highly trained and experienced commando who had severe PTSD from fighting in an unwinnable war. It's actually a strong criticism on war, and perhaps American imperialism, that still holds true even today (especially after watching the post 9/11 American wars). Secondly, Hope (in BC, Canada) is a small town, even today. But it is also in a strategic location between the lower mainland (the urbanized Greater Vancouver Area) and the BC Interior (everything else eastward/also where I am from). Today there are two main highways between Vancouver and the BC Interior: the Fraser Canyon, and the Coquihalla Highway. I don't even think the Coquihalla existed until the 1990s, so the Fraser Canyon was the main route for highway traffic during the time this movie was filmed. Hope also branches off into a couple different routes that takes you into the GVA, and today it is maybe an hour drive from GVA, while the Fraser Canyon in the other direction is about 4 hours with a few small villages. So Hope, especially during the 1980s, was an important stop for gassing up.

During the jail escape scene when Rambo slides and gives the deputy an elbow to the nose, Stallone said that he actually connected and broke the actors nose. So later when you see him in the tent, the black eyes are real and not a product of the make-up department.

The beef and back story with the sherif is cut out. The sherif was a decorated Korean war vet (only mention of it is his medals on display on his desk in one brief clip). He believed his war was completely ignored and overshadowed by WW2 and Vietnam and resented Vietnam Vets claiming some sort of victim hood while in reality Korea was a more full scale intensive war.

R.I.P. Brian Dennehy. Good man! He was a customer of mine. Very humble guy. He will be missed.

The only real Sin in this movie was that Rambo only killed ONE person.. He definitely should have murdered the Sheriff!

6:30 This sound effect was used in Sega's Golden Axe: the Revenge of Death Adder

Nothing is over, you just don't turn it off...what a great line....

The wheelie was to hide the stuntman's face as he approaches the camera. You'll notice as he drops it he turns toward the patrol car and looks back forward just before he moves out of shot.

That monologue towards the end, oh man. I watched this movie 3 days ago and I almost cried because of it

Great action film, great cinematography, great script, inspiring soundtrack. Brian Dennehy was actually an ex-marine IIRC.

“no logos to sin?? what!!?” *adds sin*

"Hear a grown ass man dropping on top of a truck." Clearly you haven't been around heavy machinery.

Meh, you overlooked the by far biggest sin: The escape scene on the dirt bike motorcycle. It's a Yamaha XT 250, 4 stroke. They silenced the real sound, and added the sound of a 2-stroke moto cross machine. I know, because I have the exact same machine myself.

Thank you sooo much for that needed laugh!

"Wait, That actually worked?" That is the best narrator comment ever!

Its kinda fun to hear Jeremy about a movie he actually likes
