Trivia:
Stallone shoots a left-handed compound bow in the film, while he is left-handed usually it's ones dominant eye that decides which hand to use due to been able to sight down the arrow. The arrows are tipped with broadheads, used only for hunting. moreGoofs:
Factual errors: The "Tallboy" bomb was never used in the pacific theatre of operations. It was designed to smash German concrete structures and could only be dropped by a British Lancaster bomber, which didn't operate in Burma. moreQuotes:
Sarah: The man you were talking to...John J. Rambo: I wasn't talking to anybody.
Sarah: Alright. The man who was talking to you asked if we could hire you to take us up river. You said no. Why?
John J. Rambo: Can't help you out.
Sarah: Well, if you have good reasons, would you mine if I heard them?
John J. Rambo: Go home.

Being a huge Sylvester Stallone fan, I was more than happy just seeing him on screen again, and I would usually just be content watching any movie with Stallone, and that's what I went in expecting. But hell, was I wrong, this had me jumping up from my seat every 2 minutes. This had one hell of a message, and wasn't just a mindless action movie with gore. I loved each bit of the movie, and watching Stallone act so well was a total pleasure. It was also kind of shocking at how Stallone is still in physical form, considering his age. He was very flexible for his age, and that's also what helped push the movie further. Also, his ruthlessness in regards to the injustice. Overall, a brilliant 10/10 if you ask me.
