For those with sharp eyes they'll notice he's a Korean war vet and so has a personal issue with Nam vets.

Therefore, she could have been a little more considerate towards Rambo, given that both of them were grieving for the same reason, you 🤡.

When you consider that in the book they dive a little more into teasles history? When he tells the colonel "rambos not the only guy had a tough time w war" Teasle is a korean war vet. A lot of korean war vets looked down on vietnam vets. The irony is that korea was the war that time forgot. Guys like my grandad didnt face the discrimination viet vets did. Makes the scene that much more powerful when you realize one treats the other like crap bc the second one didnt win his war.

They just don’t make movies like this anymore. The cinematography, the actors, the story, the characters and the 🎵score …Absolute masterpiece.

We all have a Rambo living inside of us, some more than others.

This is such a powerful beginning. The location, the cold, the mountains towering in the background. Something ominous and desperate about Rambo's plight, alone, cold, surrounded by a gigantic nature and a brutal social order ready to punish him. Learning about his friend's death, is experiencing the hopelessness of our existential journey, no compassion, no hope, this powerful man was "cut down to nothing" by an implacable disease. Rambo is a post-modern hero, no more kingdom/damsel/glory/friednship for the braves, only scorn, loneliness and rejection, but he is still a hero, and he is going to prove it, he is going to pit his desolated life against this desolated world. The ultimate affirmation of human despair, utter destruction.

Great observation. I'm 40 now. As a kid, it was all about Rambo II and III - winning the Vietnam War for 80's America and single-handedly tackling the Russians in Afghanistan. Watched both many times over, but only watched the original a couple. I liked it, but it was smaller scale and less action-packed to my naive young eyes. Once I hit my late teens / early twenties though and revisited the series -- boy, what a difference. Then it hit home. The first movie is nothing short of a masterpiece. I always have a big grin on my face when Richard Crenna (Trautman) walks into the tent and announces "I made him!"

@@dawebslave3571 You seem to be missing a crucial part of the sheriffs backstory. He isn't bullying Rambo for the sake of it, at least not out of simple abuse of power. He is doing it because Rambo is a Vietnam war veteran while the sheriff is a Korean war veteran (the movie doesn't make this very clear). Korean war veterans felt a lot of resentment towards Vietnam war veterans due to the amount of exposure and publicity surrounding the Vietnam war in comparison to their own war which took place only years before. And to this day is still only talked about rarely in comparison and largely forgotten about. His animosity to Rambo is unfair and misguided no doubt, but it's understandable.

One of the greatest action adventure movies of all time. It had everything in it. Suspenseful scenes, drama, tear - jerking moments, horrors of war etc.etc. way ahead of it's time. Cast and characters were super underrated too. This movie Inspired cinema and opened the great outdoors for movies like Predator, Surviving the Game, the Edge, The Fugitive with Harrison Ford and the Hunted in my humble opinion.

Great acting. Great script. Great directing. Awesome scenery. This movie has aged like a fine wine. The morality of the story is still very relevant to this day. If not even more so.

Honestly I have to hand it to both Dennehy and Stallone in this, their performances are stellar and they really play off of each other.... brilliant movie!

It was very different in the book. Teasle was relatively nice to him at first. Took him to a dinner and bought him a hot meal. Then took him to the city limits and wished him well. Rambo even asks himself, "this guy was nicer than most, why give him a hard time?" To which he answered himself, "Just because someone smiles when they hand you a bag of shit, doesn't mean you have to take it." And then he turns and walks back toward the town, shit storm ignited.

I've been fighting the VA for my back problems and sleep apnea, all my friends from my hometown are gone, so its kind of lonely trying to figure things out after leaving.

Imo the secret magic to this film Is the location and enviornment Itself , It's so tucked away and tranquil , and feels so "hope"full surrounded by the grandeur of pure clean untainted nature , It's the furthest retreat from the filthy theatre of war. Rambo's fragile lost demeanor really resembles a man you Instantly have empathy for trying to find his way and start over , and something about that location and It's serenity just makes you feel like he truly could've emotionally healed and blended In If they would've let him , but they're so xenophobic. The sheriff was the core of the problem , his prejudice tainted everyone else of power around him and he didn't care to understand Rambo's PTSD , he just saw Rambo's emotional unavailibility as an enemy , Instead of recognizing a friendly fellow patriotic victim trying to move on he just victimizes Rambo again for being the reality within his god-complex driven matrix of "Hope". I think It symbolically relates to the town and It's guarded sense of peace how Rambo also contrastingly represented the guarded unpleasant chaos of life and the reality that any kind of "hope" dosen't always appear or function the way you expect but you should learn to embrace It In many forms. Ironically It was really the sheriff that embodied psychotic violence and warlike truama with paranoid hatred , It's the sheriff trying to act as a hero Irrationally oppressing another man with his power who did nothing wrong but be his own man , seeking the same sense of order but In his own peaceful way.

Funny that is the same thing the VFW told me when I came home in 1971. What an act of kindness giving the mom a picture of her son.

When Rambo visited his friends home was the saddest scene for me in the whole movie because it meant that John lost his family when he learned that his friend had passed away from cancer. All of his friends that he served with in Vietnam had either been killed in action or died when he got back. He had essentially lost everything that mattered to him.

Rambo's starting scene is a masterpiece in story building. Just connects you on a deeper level with the character, the mood, and the setting. I can watch the movie many times and still never get tired.
