I forgot to mention in the other thread of mine on this movie that Rambo doesn’t actually wield a gun of any sort until the final battle of the movie except for one very brief scene towards the beginning. ---

I saw the flick last night. It was definitely the goriest movie I have ever seen (but I haven’t seen movies like Hostel or Saw). I mean, we’re talking utterly over the top violence. We saw at least a dozen heads blown or chopped off, not to mention zillions of body parts everywhere. It made me wonder if there’s something mentally disturbed about Stallone that made him \*want \* to make this movie. The story/dialogue/acting were weak, of course, but if you’re into sadistic brutal violence, you get your money’s worth. Regarding the speculation of the day: who would make a cameo as John Rambo’s father? I have two recommendations: Sylvester Stallone, as Rocky Balboa or PeeWee Herman ---
