Critics blast new ‘Rambo’ as racist, pro-Trump
BizPac Review ^ | September 19, 2019 | Zachary Leeman

Critics are branding the new “Rambo” movie as racist because it dares to depict the actual violence that takes place on the Unites States’ southern border.

“Rambo: Last Blood” is being slammed by professional critics as xenophobic, racist, and a call for President Trump’s border wall thanks to its politically incorrect storyline.

I had no interest at all in seeing this movie. I saw the first Rambo movie and have not bothered to watch the last three. When I heard that Stalone was making another Rambo movie I assumed it would be about Rambo breaking out of a nursing home while wearing Depends.

Now this movie has made it to my must watch list.

You use the made up word “Latinx” if you want to signal that you are really woke.

“Some also accused the film of xenophobia, citing its stereotypical depiction of most Hispanics and Latinos as criminals, and its portrayal of a crime infested Mexico.”

OK, so there is no crime, thus there are no legitimate refugees

“Rambo-how the left in this nation treated our returning Vietnam veterans.

Rambo II-how our gov’t spends money trying to avoid finding POWs left on the battlefield.

Rambo III-the atrocities of the Soviet Union that our press actively avoided talking about...especially the brave Afghan people.

Rambo IV-naïve leftist relief groups are when dealing with brutal war zones run by dictators.

Rambo V-the brutality of war, despots and death right here on our southern border.”

I think, just maybe mind you, there’s a trend here. A common denominator in these movies.

There cannot possibly be any crime in Mexico because Mexico has very strict gun control laws.

Then I’ll have to see it.

But, boy, does Stallone look like crap.

His face could scare small children.

Wait until they see “3 from Hell” Rob Zombie’s new movie. He depicts Mejico as a shitehole and kills a bunch of them too:-)

The leftists Hollywood types, their critics and fans, have ruined movies.

They have all painted themselves into a corner to the point where they cannot make any new movies. Maybe this is the reason the retreads. Anyway, not a good business model and the future is very uncertain for them. Good riddance.

All the right people hate it, so it will probably be as good as Dave Chapelle’s last stand-up special. Count me in!

NPR used to commonly use the term “some say,” meaning “our newsroom full of Bolshevik worms believes this...”

I’m reading nothing but great reviews. People comparing it to Logan.

Reasons 1-10 to see the movie!

Actually, High Noon was propaganda by the hollywood commies while they were being exposed as commies. Gary Cooper was the lone man persecuted by the evil conservatives.

Rio Bravo was in response to High Noon. John Wayne, Dean Martin and Ricky Nelson were conservatives being persecuted by evil commies.

It is a Rambo movie and a good one. Yes, it is violent, but nothing like the countless over the top horror movie violence that movie critics praise, so why the double standard? Possibly because this portrays real life violence with real life problems at the border and in Mexico with drugs, human trafficking, open borders, lawless Mexican towns, and criminals crossing the border into America unchecked?

This movie tells a fitting story to the Rambo character attempting to come home and live a normal life with PTSD and having real life problems open up old wounds. But hey, this is Rambo and as often as he runs from violence, when it is forced upon him, there is no mercy to the enemy. In this case ruthless sub human Mexican cartel gang members that kill his niece.

Also, the fact that Rambo first uses a Winchester Model 92, than an M1 Garand, pump shotgun, long before he starts using an H-bar rifle. So much for those evil black rifles. Plus blasting the enemy in his home alone movie version of Rambo built Vietnam tunnels with the Doors "Five to One" blaring at them as the criminal illegals are eliminated. what is not to like?

Great job Stallone.
