Being a two time war vet myself, his breakdown at the end of First Blood, in front of the Colonel, was emotional as can be. And Sly's performance was Oscar worthy. I don't watch war movies anymore, but I remember his performance as a vet who felt absolutely alone in the world. Sly is a great actor and he knew how to portray that image with utmost respect to those REAL PoW's and war vets who lived it.
Masterpiece in cinematography , editing , acting - music is heartbreaking. This is the best Sly film ever. Its 2024 and you can watch it in one go without getting bored.
I just saw First Blood. I never made time to see it and I’m sad I hadn’t until now. What a fantastic film. Especially highlighting the PTSD that American seemingly wasn’t ready to acknowledge or deal with. Man, what a performance at the end.
Sylverster Stallone admitting he isn't proud of 2 and 3, that it was his fault that they didn't strike the tone he would have liked to. Humility is cool.
Yep, but not entirely his fault, in the 80's the audience started to change, didn't want depressed antiheroes anymore like in First Blood part 1, he just gave people the entertainment they wanted at the time.
I appreciate and respect how the feels about the second and third film. They're not on the level of the first or fourth (perhaps not even five) But they're still fun times. I just respect how he can recognize thier faults and not just say "yeah they're horrible" like someone like Schwarzenegger would do with most of the Terminator sequels. First Blood at 41 years old remains gold, just showed it to my little brother and he absolutely loved it. Generations to come will always watch
Epic. Recently rewatched and First Blood is just too good! Seeing it for the first time growing up in the 80s was awesome. The battle in R4 was also pretty great.
Sly tells a lot of the same jokes in interviews over the years but I’m charmed by it every time. Plus I understand that’s just how doing press works,it’s a relatively recent phenomenon for people to have access to every single interview a person has ever given
As a kid I hated first blood and loved Rambo 2. As an adult I realize that first blood is a masterpiece but 2 is still kind of a guilty pleasure even though I realize now it's got great action but the story is crap.
The novel as it was written by David Morrill was very dark and if it would have been made as it was in the novel would have never been seen again as a matter of fact Stallone tried to buy the negative if they were going to use that version and destroy it so it would never be seen it was just horrible and makes Vietnam veterans seem like bad guys when they were really victims and those nasty disgusting hippies were really a true disgrace to the country, Stallone is a great writer and knows how to make a great movie that will make the audience will cheer and first blood is one of the greatest action movies of all time,now 2 was awesome as well 3 was better than it was given credit for it just was released during a time when the cold was was ending
Rare movie where there aren't really good guys or bad guys,or has a clear distinction between right and wrong. Just survival. All characters are motivated by what they believe is right. Teasle played it wrong from the beginning, but Rambo did escape from jail and wounded a bunch of cops. But is that right or wrong or just survival.
I love ALL the Rambo films! Although I will admit that Rambo 3 has a kind of weak storyline. Rambo 5 is great but suffers from slowness in quite a few scenes (mabey because of Stallone now being in his 70s?)
@@michaelkrolewski7406 Because Sly did say he is a good choice. But Gosling is 42 so to old for playing pre Vietnam parts. No one will look like Rambo its obvious.
Doing a First Blood prequel film is going to be tough being that not only does it require a twenty year old Stallone lookalike but a twenty year old with enough acting depth. That's going to be a big challenge. Sly Stallone and Sasha Stallone could play Rambo's parents. Also what about Josh Brolin as Trautman?
First Blood is a great film. Very thematically rich, grounded, somber, has a great massage and performance 2 & 3 - 80's action flick / dumb fun popcorn movies Rambo 2008 - Going back to the feel of the first movie while still bringing some element of 2 & 3 but tone down the dumb aspects and making the war feels horrifying than fun like 2 & 3 Last Blood - Justa generic action movie that does not feel like a Rambo movie at all. It's more just like a Stallone action movie
