Plot? What plot? This movie runs like a string of clips from YouTube featuring awesome explosions and bloody deaths. And it was AWESOME! I was watching this with my fiancé and when Stallone started talking she made me rewind twice because he was just grunting and grumbling through the dialogue. I swear that made it better because I didn’t even have to try and follow plot. I could just hear a grunt and then watch mayhem ensue. I especially enjoyed when Rambo takes over the enemy 50 cal and proceeds to annihilate legitimately a hundred plus guys. It was absurd and fantastic. In the final showdown with the big bad (who never speaks the entire film) he disembowels the guy with the famous Rambo knife. It was like Jem… Truly outrageous. (Yeah, I did). I hope Stallone is done trying to reboot franchises because while enjoyable they are still just caricatures of the once great characters he played a LONG, LONG time ago. I probably won’t watch this one again unless I can rally a bunch of boys together to watch while drinking. That’s about the only way it would be worth taking up another 90 minutes of my life.
