Review:
Well, it's far more over the top feeling than the original, but I enjoyed both about the same. Both are rather nicely filmed, and both are violent (though I think this one with the rocket launcher and exploding arrows takes the cake) and both should make any action film fan happy. This time Rambo is in jail breaking hot rocks in the sun when he's offered an out, if he goes to Vietnam and takes pictures of any POWs he can find he may receive a pardon. Of course he volunteers, and quickly finds where the POWs are kept and he goes on a rampage killing and blowing up everyone in his path. It's pretty exciting and action packed and yes the body count is very high. He can't follow instructions and neither can the Army so things get out of control of course. The actual character of Rambo could use a little personality but I'm sure that's just a small quibble since to most it won't matter. I enjoyed it and so will most, it's exactly what you think it is.
