Few actors can create two iconic characters and turn them into franchises. Good for you Sly.

Brian McGovern

I am all for Carly to do a solo reaction. Can't be violent because she has to comment on what she is watching. I am not sure the ceiling in the bedroom has much going on, or the inside of her eyelids. Lol

Don't forget that other thing, the unwatchables or untouchables or whatever that series is called...

Michael Lynch

I am just patiently awaiting Crocodile Dundee. Is your sister watching it with you?

Above Average Dave

Thanks Cassie! I thought this was one of Stallone’s best non-Rocky performances (also CLIFF HANGER and TANGO AND CASH - with Kurt Russell - and NIGHTHAWKS). When you’re ready, THE OUTPOST (Orlando Bloom, Scott Eastwood) is a great true story of Army Rangers from the Afghanistan war. The action, when it comes is like 13 Hours - as real as it gets. Beware: lots of salty language (how soldiers are wont to do when they’re isolated and in country), but a great watch.

Björn Von Knorring

Of course I want Carly to do a solo-reaction. It would be great.

Pianodean

Rambo's PTSD breakdown at the end was so unexpected when I first saw this in theaters...arguably Stallone's FINEST acting moment PERIOD.

Kevin V

In the book, the characters are less clear cut. The sheriff is wrong at times, but he isn’t so over the top as in the movie. And Rambo is way more of a loose cannon. The ending is very different. But both versions are good in their own way.

Brian, I suggested the same exact thing, that Carly do a solo, about a year ago on YouTube........I was crucified!...so much so, I had to delete my comment. -Just sayin' -J

James Sweeney

This is a very good movie and I so enjoy you and Carly's reactions. I think you 2 are super great together. I do want to help you with one point in the movie. Rambo went back and did what he did because the Sheriff kinda started a war with him. He tried over and over again to stop it. But the sheriff just wouldn't stop. They tried to kill him several times. But when he emerges from that mine shaft he determined to end it by getting that sheriff. So Rambo is not the bad guy. They just pushed the wrong guy over the edge. I mean try to imagine being in his shoes when he has to jump off a cliff risking his life because Psycho Gault is shooting at him trying to murder him. They sick the 3 dogs on him which he has to eliminate. He disables all the deputies and pins the sheriff to a tree with a knife to his throat telling him to stop this war and let it go. Which he does not do. He could've killed everyone of them, but he didn.t. Then they tried to blow him up in that mine, which he miraculously escapes. They weren't trying to arrest him, they were trying to kill him. This wasn't 2 wrongs. This was almost justice. Now that is In the sense of Hollywood movie making.......lol

Well Cassie brought it up. I am just voting yes to it. If I get pushback, so be it. Remember, YouTube comments are not exactly something we should wanting to use as a bar for judging acceptable behaviour.

Apropos nothing at all, I am reminded of Serena van der Woodsen: "It’s just sometimes that my thoughts come so fast that I get confused." :-) :-) :-) The reason you're finding it difficult to pronounce Rahm-bo, Cassie, is that you are a cultured young woman who keeps thinking of Arthur Rimbaud. :-) "It's like Home Alone in the woods." Yes, but only in one of these movies is the protagonist a gleefully sadistic psychopath. The movie obviously leads us to sympathize with Rambo, while his antagonists strike modern audiences as almost cartoonishly evil. In the novel it is based on, the Sheriff is a veteran of the Korean War. Question for the slow: are the Sheriff's actions themselves entirely divorced from his past? 32:30 This mission is over; have a coke and a smile. 🤨 The lesson of the movie is: You got to let it go. As to the sequels, they veer into popcorn action film territory.

Michael Labs

I see that the book by David Morril was mentioned. The story got told from both points of view and the sheriff wasn't as much of a hard case. Once I read the book "First Blood", I much preferred it to the movie.

Bill Maurer

For those who’ve seen “Rambo”, the one set in Thailand / Burma, isn’t there a resemblance between Cassie and the female lead in that movie, Sarah ?

Donald Holloway

This was my favorite in the Rambo series. I think he was more of a typical action hero in the rest.

Happy Hanukkah

John Rambo? I thought you said Jean Reno! Zut alors! :-) (I'll recommend the romantic comedy For Roseanna (1997). I am dubious about Leon, and I'm far from convinced Cassie would appreciate Ronin. Many would push for The Big Blue. If we're considering French-language films, the choice is obviously far greater.)

Don

First Blood! I loved this film when I was a kid. It was that film I wasn’t allowed to watch but I would just get up early and find where my dad hid the vhs tape and watch it anyway. But it’s only as I got older that i started to understand what the film was actually about and how sad it is. The safest aspect for me is that many people who are anti war and rightly so are so stupid that they make the soldiers the target of their anger. A soldier is told where to fight and many of them suffer as a result. It’s the people who make the decisions to send these people to war that should be the target. Blaming it on the soldier is either laziness , stupidity, or just plain cruel. The follow ups to this film are more action orientated but they still explore the same themes about a soldier who can’t find his place back in the world anymore. The only one i didn’t like was the last one. First blood 2 is great. 3 is very meh whatever. Rambo is fantastic. Will Cassie enjoy them? I don’t know.

I know the movie company probably changed it but it should just be titled first blood. It’s like pitch black became chronicles of riddick pitch black. They should just leave it be. It’s a classic

Brent Fugett
>>127358317

Agree, also could be great acting but Richard Crenna's reaction to the childlike breakdown looks pretty genuine, like Stallone took his hand adlib (I don't think it was adlib, just good acting). I'll save my thoughts on the parallel scene in the second one (the real Rambo) for when they see it..

Dan M
>>127381466

I agree. Up until this reaction was posted, I knew the movie as just First Blood. I’m assuming once the name Rambo became a household name, the studio execs changed the name to include Rambo so newer audiences would know it was the first movie in the franchise. I agree ladies, its hard not to associate Sylvester Stallone with Rocky, but this movie is an example of the acting range he has. I would also recommend Copland as another example of his acting abilities.

Regarding your opening, your sister and you have an act that just can't flop. Your sister and you are headed straight for the top! (Look out, Carly! :-) ) Say, that woman in the beginning who plays Delmar's ... widow? mother? sure impressed me. I'll just take a minute to look up what else she's done...

Dissonant Bard

I know you have reacted to several war movies at this point. For a movie, that is all about giving greater context to the Vietnam War era, I would love to see you react to The Greatest Beer Run Ever (2022) with Zac Efron and Russell Crowe. It is based on a true story and I think you and Carly would love it. For a December War War I movie also based on a true story, please check out Joyeux Noel. Both of these push against the typically gritty, gore realism, to say something bigger almost in the vein of Hacksaw Ridge.

Steve Holton
>>127393298

Actually, despite her incredible performance, the name of the actress who plays Delmar's family at the beginning of the film is lost to history. She is uncredited in the film and no readily available information on her exists. Perhaps someone on the production crew has that information, but they have not published it.

Steve Holton
>>127367464

Jean Reno was also in the original French film La Femme Nikita (1990) as "The Cleaner" But I agree Ronin or For Roseanna would be a nicer introduction. Though Cassie has already seen him as the treacherous chopper pilot and scrounger in the first Mission Impossible.

nick bell

I loved it because it felt personal and real. Unlike the sequels.

FYI: The flashbacks he was having were from time spent as a POW in Nam. Yes there are 3 additional Rambo movies, #2 starts with him in prison. All members of Special Operations (Special Forces (Green Berets), SEALs, Rangers, Marine Force Recon) are trained basically the way he indicated for self survival.

The big blue is great 🤩 The underwater scenes are amazing and creepy at the same time. An underrated movie imo 🙂

The most difficult vietnam movie for me to watch was "Casualties of War"....

Ria Grix

I remember boys being obsessed with those survival knives in the 80s…. and shurikens… and any movie with the word ninja in it.

David Conroy

This movie came in the middle of a run of several years, starting maybe with The Deer Hunter (1978) and culminating with Springsteen's "Born in the USA", when popular culture started recognizing that not everyone comes back from war ok and a lot of vets were struggling. The respect for vets you don't see here but you do see a quarter century later in Taking Chance is an evolution that grew out of this time period.

I grew up in the 90's and we were still super into ninjas

Happy Hanukkah

Y'all will notice I decided to be on my best non-trollish behavior and refrained from mentioning the 1998 Godzilla. :-) (As far as I'm concerned, it's a 10-minute movie featuring Jean Reno exclusively. :-) )

Stranger2Reality
>>127381466

Yeah, they started doing this with these movie sets when they wanted to sell them as DVD box sets, where they add the franchise name onto the first movie. The same thing happened with Raiders of the Lost Ark, where now people mistakenly think it's called "Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark". It was just a marketing ploy for home video sales decades later.

Stranger2Reality
>>127424613

There's four sequels, actually. There's Rambo: First Blood Pt. 2, Rambo III, Rambo, and Rambo: Last Blood.

Stranger2Reality
>>127453121

This movie, like Born in the USA, are both often misinterpreted as jingoistic "America is the best country in the world" type media/entertainment, when in fact they're much more critical of what was going on in America in the 70s & 80s. But Rambo as a character and Springsteen's song both became very big icons of Reagan's "morning in America" in the 80s.

Happy Hanukkah
>>127381466

Think of it as them being very considerate of people who want to alphabetize their movie collections. :-)

Stranger2Reality

Cassie, I really think you should stop after this movie and not watch anymore Rambo movies. For one thing, they get incredibly violent going forward, where even though only one person conclusively dies in this movie, going forward after this the death tolls begin to pile up into the dozens (at least). The rest of the movies in this franchise have none of the gravitas or moral complexity that this movie does. Instead they quickly turn Rambo into a version of Captain America, except that he brutally murders all the "enemies of America" in the subsequent films. The rest of the movies in this franchise are more like Schwarzenegger's Commando or many of the movies by Chuck Norris and Jean Claude Van Damme. Gone are the ambiguities about the character, as instead Rambo becomes a musclebound killing machine who's draped in an American flag. Those movies have their place, if you enjoy "mindless action films", but that's clearly not you. This first movie is great, and has interesting things to say, and was a good choice to watch. But none of the other films in this series are really anything like this. They're more like the scene where Rambo is stalking all the cops and wounding them in the forest, except drawn out as that for the entire movie, and with Rambo much more heavily well armed.

That's what I said, three (3) additional, I just didn't list the titles. Personally I consider the rest to be way off base. First Blood exhibits a lot of the "survival training" we went through, including SERE training.

Cassie, my eldest sisters husband spent 2.5 years in Vietnam in the early 1970's and in the 1980's he had to have a cancerous tumor surgically removed from his ankle. The Vet administration took care of the surgery as part of the Agent Orange settlement process and he survived into his early 70's passing during the lockdown of various problems not related to COVID. Other than the letters he sent home to my sister he never talked about the war and when the county listed all the Vietnam vets at the memorial park he declined to have his name on the list.

james flack

Allen, in my 75 years of life, I have been exposed to people of all ages, who have fought in six different wars. Most (but not all) who had seen any real action, had a real problem talking about it. -Just sayin'.....

Yes, he was a USAF cargo handler, the only thing he ever mentioned was a sniper shooting at the pallets of ammunition. As he was unloading them for transfer to the ammo dump. Once I was old enough to understand it gave me the willies. My father and two of my brothers served in the USN and one sister is a USAF vet.
