School Of Movies

[School of Movies 2019]  We cover the five movies each in turn. 0.00 First Blood (1982) 0.25 Rambo: First Blood Part II (1985) 0.49 Rambo III (1988) 0.59 Rambo (2008) 1.12 Last Blood (2019) It's quite a wild and bumpy ride, going from a sobering critique of the military industrial machine and what it does to our soldiers, to a critique on political chicanery and lack of transparency in warfare to just an all-out blockbuster western with tanks to a gruesome revenge-porn exploitation action and finally to a grim take on American/Mexican border-relations. There are good and bad elements to be found within, as a shell-shocked soldier morphs into an unbeatable saviour and then into basically Jason Vorhees minus the hockey mask.
