Starring : Sylvester Stallone, Brian Dennehy, Richard Crenna, Chris Mulkey, David Caruso
Director : Ted Kotcheff
Running Time : 92 mins
Whilst hitchhiking through a small town, ex Vietnam veteran John Rambo (Stallone) finds himself getting picked on by local cops, who arrest him for possessing a deadly weapon – his knife. His treatment in jail causes him to have major flashbacks and, when he does escape from confinement, he starts to kill off his pursuers one by one…
A simple idea and a simple plot, this would have been the perfect stand alone movie. Unfortunately Stallone and Hollywood keep insisting on making less and less likely sequels to this otherwise fine and historically accurate movie. Dennehy is especially affective as the main cop out to get him, and Stallone seems generally confused throughout – though I’m not sure how much of that is actual acting.
