Still action-packed and explosive!
Not as good as Rambo First Blood Part II, but highly entertaining. This time, Rambo travels to Afghanistan to save Trautman from the Russians. Rambo travels to Afghanistan and meets up with rebels awaiting more help when Russian helicopters show up and attack. Rambo blows one of them up and the other escapes. The Afghans retreat to the border but Rambo, another rebel, and the kid stay behind to save Trautman. Rambo shows some crazy survival techniques here such as when he gets impaled by a shard of wood, he breaks part of it off, and then later pushes the rest out of his side. Then he takes the gunpowder from a bullet and pours it into the wound and sets it on fire, cauterizing it. The Rambo and Trautman characters are expanded more here as we see them form almost a father-son bonding relationship here. They get along well and pick off the Russians one by one in the pit. Rambo seemingly finds a life for himself after years of drifting around. Trautman risks his life to assist the Afghans. The one character I can't stand though is the kid. He's completely annoying and an unnecessary character and he's my least favorite character of the four movies. Aside from that, the rest of the Afghans are cool characters. Rambo also has some other cool scenes, such as when he's fighting the Russian soldier, he ties the rope around his neck, pulls the pin on a grenade, and kicks him into a pit, where he gets caught and then blows up. He also is able to pilot a tank and kill the Russian commander. There are also great quotes from the movie such as: "Who are you?" "I'm your worst nightmare.", "Who do you think this man is? God?" "No, God would have mercy. He won't.", and "What do you say, John?" "F*** 'em." Rambo III is a fun and highly entertaining action movie that, despite some flaws, still has entertaining elements to it. It's not as good as Rambo First Blood Part II, but a close second, tied with Rambo (2008). I love First Blood, but the sequels have more fun action to them. Definitely buy Rambo III because it's just awesome.

80's Action Classic with Current Times Twist
It seems America needs the help of John Rambo one more time as he treks out to the rugged mountains of Afghanistan to save his friend. This movie is packed with action straight from the beginning until the end! Starting off in the Orient where Rambo seeks to find inner peace by living with Buddhist monks and making some extra money by stick fighting locals. All is well until old pal, Col. Trautman and his CIA friend show up to persuade John to help them funnel arms to the Afghan freedom fighters, (who at the time were fighting the Red army). Rambo quickly declines the offer (Even after seeing some persuading pictures of maimed Afghan children) claiming his war is over. Dissapointed, Col. Trautman leaves on a solo mission with a convoy of Afghan and American fighters to end up being caught by a ruthless Russian commander who tortures him, and Afghan men and women prisoners day and night. Rambo learns of the news and now is forced to back to the war he didn't want to fight to save his friend. Along the way, he makes Afghan friends and saves the day by almost single handedly taking out a whole Russian battalion including Spetnaz commandos. The story is straight out of a comic book, but this movie was made to please one market. Die-Hard Action fans like me who just love to see a one man army take on overwhelming odds, kick enormous butt, and live to tell about it. On a Sidenote: In the end of the movie, a message gives thanks to: "The Gallant People of Afghanistan." Which is the least the makers of this film could do since during the whole movie, Rambo is depicted as the man who turned the tide. Anyone who doesn't know yet, the Afghan/Russian war was solely fought with Afghan blood, but with our gold. In ways Afghans and Rambo are alike. Both were given covert help by the CIA, both were lied to, and both were left to die. Now again USA is helping Afghan freedom fighters to topple the evil Taleban and Al Qaeda, but this time they want in the action. Rumours of Rambo IV are everywhere and there are claims that Stallone is writing a screenplay as we speak. If it's true, let's hope this trilogy wraps up with a bang!

Rambo 3
This is a great action movie from the late 1980's. It holds up quite well and does not appear dated in any way. The HD visuals found in this bluray have done the movie justice, as Rambo's blood and sweat is clearly defined and the environments offer great detail. I am greatly astonished that this film in the original Rambo trilogy was critically and commercially trashed in the box office. The movie itself is full of non-stop explosive action. Unlike the first (which does offer a good story), or the cheesy second in Vietnam that was merely alright. The first two clearly don't hold up as well in HD, as the superior action oriented third. I hate when retards bash a movie for deviating from its original story or because it does not offer enough character development. For those individuals they can find what they want by just reading a book! I personally watch a movie for its sheer entertainment value, and if I seek more in the subject matter then I would just watch a documentary. These individuals who bash a movie for its unrelenting action and explosions, essentially kill any possible future sequels. The movies I know that have suffered this fate was of course Rambo 3 in the 80's, which the public clearly spoke by hardly making a dent in its box office numbers(and you dare call yourselves Rambo fans!) There are also other movies, like "The Chronicles of Riddick," which obviously was not like Pitch Black with its heavier action scenes that was too much for some folks, which essentially killed any possibility for a third movie in the franchise. Also, there is "Terminator Salvation", which was a great modern take on the franchise with its direction clearly veering into a dark future war introduced in the original movies. I just believe people should enjoy movies for what they are, and stop complaining about what there not!!! The same could be said about the recent movie "Battle: Los Angeles", that was bashed for its heavy action emphasis. Those of you that are constantly getting your unbelievable expectations hurt your just ruining it for everyone else by killing any future sequels with your hate! Consequently, destroying what could otherwise be a great action extravaganza on bluray!!!

A worthy UHD upgrade if you’re a fan
If you don’t have a nostalgic attachment to this film, this isn’t going to win you over - just watch the first movie and then skip to the 4th movie. Rambo III is a good action movie, but it had a very troubled production and release path and got its timing hopelessly wrong. It’s interesting to rewatch this now from a cinema studies perspective and certainly there’s a lot to admire in how this film was crafted given its budget and the technological limitations of the time. Helicopter combat sequences with real helicopters are not easy to film, just by the by. Studio Canal have done an amazing job of remastering this from the original film negatives. Trust me, you’ll never watch the old Blu-Ray again. A word to the younger generation - this was filmed on film and includes a number of night scenes shot in low light that are very grainy. That’s just a consequence of using photochemical film. This looks better than I recall it looking when I saw it at the cinema but that print had been through a few dozen screenings before I got to it. If you’re a fan or a cinema studies student, I recommend adding this to your collection.
