Plot
John Rambo is released from prison by the government for a top-secret covert mission to the last place on Earth he'd want to return - the jungles of Vietnam.
Sinekatalog’s take
A one-man army returns to the jungle for a rescue mission, and the film is pure muscle: explosions, arrows and flag-waving. It is crude, loud and politically one-note, yet undeniably effective as Reagan-era action. Nostalgic bombast for genre fans only.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
