"First Blood," starring Sylvester Stallone, is one of the rare movies that has created a character that is today known the world over. Telling the tale of a Vietnam vet with special skills who is unwittingly pushed into a corner by a stereotypical redneck sheriff, this is one action movie that is a must see. Not only does it have fantastic action seems, but also a tense psychological dramatic element as well.
Our fable kicks off with a drifter, a veteran of the Vietnam challenge wandering into a tiny town. On the exterior of town, he is met with some police force who tell him that his class is not acceptable in this city. Drifters are not allowed, as they are perceived as vermin who will undermine the cities resources without giving anything back. After giving him the word of warning, the law leave him, and think that is that.
However, our hero, John Rambo, shows up again in town, and is arrested. He gets booked, and thrown into the county lockup. But he doesn't represent any harm, and he hasn't yet shattered any laws. He just required something to eat, and a friendly place to sleep. He may appear a little slow, but we feel for him, as the police seem to be mistreating him.
Then there is a crusade, and the police chief steps over the line. And faintly injures this outwardly big brute. Drawing initial blood, the sheriff has opened a can of worms he will shortly regret, likely for the rest of his life. Because John Rambo is a highly qualified killer, and well equipped to control any kind of resistance, and come out on top.
This commences the center of the picture. One lone man, John Rambo, is pressed into a trap, and he responds with the only way he knows how. He retreats into the close by hills, and immediately finds himself in his element. Taught to stay alive, to hound, and to execute. The police speedily recognize that they have their hands full, and bring in as many officers as they can.
Then an army Colonel shows up, and claims that he was Rambo's commanding officer during the Vietnam combat. The police erroneously suppose he is there to look after his charge from the police. But they have it the other way around. Rambo's CO is there to bring him back before he does unalterable harm to the entire police force. He is there to save the police force from Rambo, not the other way around. We chase John Rambo through the wasteland, and watch him battle his own psychological demons in one unusual movie that has created one of he most well known action heroes of our time. If you haven't seen this movie, you must, as it is an instance of remarkable filmmaking, acting, and directing. - 40725
