Rambo hits theaters today, and if the early reviews are any indicator it may not be any good, but it’ll certainly have a lot of violence. Wait, isn’t this a Rambo movie? Isn’t violence all that’s required for it to be good? I thought that was the point?
Critics it would seem, disagree. I’ve never been much of a Rambo fan myself, so I’ll leave it to all of you to tell me whether or not it’ll be any good. While you’re considering purchasing tickets, here’s a few “is it worth your time” clues. Four brand new clips from the film, showing John Rambo doing all the things he does best. Killing, maiming, and blowing up. Play the embeds below and take a look:

Guess I'm just a Stallone fan. While I appreciated how Stallone parted with the Rocky series via Rocky Balboa, his parting with Rambo is not as touching, but then again, Rambo is not that type of character.
I liked the movie, although the violence was a little over the top. It didn't glorify brutality mind you, but it repeated the idea that sometimes, only violence can stop evil.
It's kind of hard for me to believe that Rambo rides off into the sunset via the film's ironic ending. Truly, what will Stallone do without either Balboa or Rambo.
I like Sly's movies and believe there is a still a large market for them. I liked the Rambo series and especially this version.

Rambo sucks BALLS! only FIRST BLOOD was any good, at least that had some sort of piot and was grounded in some sort of reality.
