If you weren’t born in the 80s, or perhaps before that, you probably won’t get how weird it is to stumble across a new Rambo movie starring Sylvester Stallone.
I thought he retired.
Nope, he’s back – this time without the headband which is kind of iconic so that’s sad.
Despite the lack of headband, you’ll still get the bad one-liners, shooting, bow-and-arrowing, knifing, and blowing things up that you’ve come to expect from the franchise.
Here’s Polygon:
The original Rambo movie, First Blood, hit theaters in 1982 and confronted post-war PTSD, The series evolved into a Gen X action franchise people know today.
…Rambo: Last Blood is the fifth Rambo film, in which Stallone’s iconic character travels to Mexico to save a friend’s daughter from a drug cartel. The film has gestated since 2008 and gone through many iterations and names. (At one point, Rambo was going to fight a wolfman super soldier!) The final plot hews a little closer to the John Rambo stories people know: full of vengeance, murky politics, and plenty of bloodshed to get the job done. Can’t nobody tell me nothin’ …
Take it in, because this will probably be the last film in the series:
We say probably, but you never know.
You can catch Rambo: Last Blood in cinemas September 20, 2019.
