I don't know about this one, chief. At least he is not running through the jungle at 70.

Trailer being built around Old Town Road is hilarious though.
Not removing until John Elway is fired.

Looks like it could be good, but the feel seems off for a Rambo movie. Could it be the clean cut hair throwing me off?

Probably just the way modern movies are made.

Might rent it but probably not looks more like a wait for it to come on HBO

Looks fun. Saw a trailer today in the cinema. Definitely worth the watch.

Very enjoyable. Saw it in 4DX which felt gratuitous. But funky.

Can't believe the lefty political shit critics are trying to say about the movie. It's really like they don't want sex traffickers villainized. "Oh, the villains are mexican, so it's racist." Nevermind that Mexico's sex trafficking problem is huge and there were non-villain mexicans in the movie too, one very helpful.

I heard some guy on the radio today say something like "Rambo doing his usual racist thing of killing ethnic minorities".

I lol'd. What a superhero that guy is for all ethnic minorities!

Jesus Christ. Not even the awesomeness of Rambo with a hammer is enough to stop the whining. Best combo since chocolate and peanut butter.

That collar bone scene was intense. Fucking epic.

And any idea this is racist is bullshit. The race played into having a border to cross and no police help on that side of the border. Nothing more. Certainly if child sex traffickers aren’t an acceptable villain then what is. Even the last one the baddies were Cambodian, but so were all the victims. That was the setting.

Also, the Rambo recap of the entire franchise over the credits was actually very cool.

And agree the hammer scene was also excellent. Really cool.

I think the hammer scene was an homage to You Were Never Really Here, where Pheonix helps those in similar situations, armed only with a hammer.

It was epic. I thought it might’ve been inspired by The RAID, but either way it was effective as fuck.

You mean like First Blood, where he doesn't actually kill anybody and a bunch of fucking white dudes are trying to gank him.
