The reviews are in, and critics have reached an unsurprising verdict: “Rambo: Last Blood” is not politically correct. Review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes has scored what is presumably the final entry in the Rambo franchise at 27 percent positive based on 100 reviews from critics. In contrast, 85 percent of moviegoers gave it a thumb’s up on Rotten Tomatoes.
Here is a sampling of headlines:
‘Rambo: Last Blood’ Is a Trumpian, Anti-Mexican Nightmare ‘Rambo: Last Blood’ Is A Rollicking Good Time Of Hyper-Violent Xenophobic Revenge Fantasies ‘Rambo: Last Blood’ Is An Ugly, Xenophobic Mess Right wing “Rambo” propaganda is alive and well in “Last Blood” ‘Rambo: Last Blood’: Sylvester Stallone Leads A Manic MAGA Fever Dream & Radicalizing Recruitment Video

A sampling of those headlines makes me interested. I love a good orgy of blood and violence.
I now have to go see it.
I enjoyed it. Predictable but an emotionally intense movie.
Sounds like a good flick then.
Looks like a manly movie.
Ping.
okay, I’ll see it.
Well, I’m sold!
Soy Boys will run in terror at the mere mention of the movie.
Yikes, Stallone’s playing Rambo? Ridiculous. How old is he? I liked the series and I’ll watch this one, but I’m not gonna be able to get past an old man playing Rambo!
The main reason I went to see The Deer Hunter was because Jane Fonda called it Pentagon propaganda. Hey, buy to defy!

This portends well for President Trump in Election 2020:

Stollone is 73. I haven’t seen the movie yet. If “Rambo” is shown as a 73 year old and not running around hip shooting a mini-gun it could work.
Clint Eastwood was 78 when he made Gran Torino. Not exactly “Dirty Harry”, but still a tough old bird.
Gran Torino is one of my favorites. Last blood not so much.
Oh, my. Are sex traffickers now in line to become a protected class? Wouldn’t surprise me since we know how many years they protected Jeffrey Epstein and his friends. Probably still doing that.
Hmmm, wasn’t planning to see it, might have to go now.
