let me get this straight, he's killed Asians, Russians and Goathumpers by the score, but kill some mexkins and everybody loses their mind... is that it???Paging Boo-Hoo Girl!
“...lacking soul...I felt dehumanized...”
Hey, it’s a freaking RAMBO action movie for heaven sake!
I haven’t seen it yet but given the track record of previous Rambo sequels, it’s probably not going to be that great even though it’s making the critics mad that the Cartels are depicted rightfully as vicious killers. Rocky was another series that they kept making unnecessary mediocre sequels in my opinion.
-—maybe this has something to do with his opinion—????
To be honest I didn’t like the movie. A collection of cliches from all around the franchise. Easily the worst of all Rambo movies.
Maybe off topic, but has any actor made more sequels than Sylvester Stallone? Between Rocky and Rambo, that’s a bunch.
I used to be a fan of some of his stuff (never much liked the Rambo stuff though)... But I guess he hasn't written anything good enough to make it to the local book shelves for quite a while.
I’m guessing taking any $$ associated with Last Blood is ok though.
Start by giving back all the monetary compensation he got for selling the rights (and any input) to Rambo and then he can lecture people.
I read the First Blood book back in the ‘70s. If memory serves me...both Rambo and the sheriff died at the end...maybe blown up by dynamite.
That being said, I’m glad Rambo was resurrected, at least for some of the sequels. The previous movie (4th?), gory also, should’ve been the end of the series. The end of the movie pictured Rambo returning to his homeplace farm in America...walking down the long drive to the house. You just assumed it was the homeplace because of the “Rambo” name on the mailbox. The ending scene left you feeling like Rambo was finally home.
That being said...heck yeah I’m watching “Last Blood”.
The fan score is 86%.
Looks like the people who pay money to see movies are enjoying it.

FWIW, I'm surprised the critic score isn't a 0%. The critics who praised the film will likely never work again.
Yes, that's a mixed metaphor, or something.
If y'all want to see the worst, but funniest movie Stallone ever did, look up 'Rhinestone'. Dolly Parton takes a bet to turn a cab driver (Stallone) in to a country music star. Hilarious!
We are supposed to be anti NRA. How about we do away with all violent movies and video games. How about a government buyback? Hollywood should be asked this.
More and more it seems that:
Low critic score/high fan score =
“GO SEE IT..!!”
Much like Rick James with MC Hammer, the indignation of artistic integrity vanishes with that first royalty check.
From the article:
“Last Blood” stars Stallone — reprising Rambo for a fifth time — as a vigilante hunting down Mexican brutes who kidnap his niece and force her into the sex trade.
Salon.com film critic Matthew Rozsa referred to “Last Blood” as a “dramatized manifestation of the most notorious sentences from Donald Trump’s presidential campaign announcement speech,”
If you're counting on a movie to make you feel MORE human, you should probably seek help. It's entertainment, not edification.
let me get this straight, he's killed Asians, Russians and Goathumpers by the score, but kill some mexkins and everybody loses their mind... is that it??? You remind me of a liberal. If you don't like someone's opinion you want them ostracized. Good job, First Amendment proponent.
