4.6........... are you kidding me?????


How in the hell did the this movie get 4.6 out of 10????? Honestly, I understand this is no Godfather but it's an ACTION MOVIE!!!! It's not meant to be dramatic, it meant to be entertaining!!! And I can't see how this movie would bore anybody, the actions is amazing! So what's the deal?

How am I funny?

what the hell does that have to do with rambo???

reply

unfortunately , there are lots of people that cant appreciate a movie... definetely at least a 7

reply

The rating for this is simply ridiculous--the action is awesome! Maybe the subject matter turned people to give it a low-rating? Other than that, this is simply a great action movie!

reply

100% ack!!!

imho 7/10, worse than the first 2 flicks, but much better than part 4. at least its a real rambo-movie :)

A lot of movie snobs rate these old action movies low. There is no way any iconic movie like this is below a 6. I wouldnt pay much attention to the ratings system on imdb. Great info though.

reply

lol @ rambo 4 getting any kind of rating (above 0)

99% of new films are garbage

reply

It's 5.4 currently. I give it a 6 as a solid actioner. IMO the best was at the beginning with the stick fight. "Afghanistan" segment went over the top even by Rambo standards.

reply

definately a 7

rambo 2 7.5

first blood gets the same

but rambo 4 is an 8.

reply

I also don't believe it! After the first 30 min, the action is unrelenting. The climax is an all-out war. There isn't that much of this made nowadays. A classic of the "blow everything up" genre.

people need to start judging action flicks as action flicks

not every movie is made to be The Godfather

reply

Every movie here is judged upon a comparison of ALL movies.
Movie wise: 5 is acceptable rating
Action movie wise: 8 easily, it's good for the genre it's in.
But that doesn't mean it's a good movie. It's just good for what it is, nothing more.

Are you talkin' to me?

Rambo 3 is definitely the worst out of all 4, but it doesn't mean it's horrible. At least AT LEAST deserves a 6/10.

reply

I think it's pretty easy to see why most people have been regarding this film the best of the series since it came out. It's by far the truest and most artistic Rambo film that was at the time extremely important for the people in the Mid East, Africa and China to stand up against the oppression, no wonder the cultural relevance of this film still can be felt and witnessed in that part of the world even today, those who live and travel over there very much know what i'm talking about. I think this universal impact and wide ideological influence is something the 1st and 4th Rambo film have unfortunately never achieved so far in the world, which might explain why they seem to be the least known films of the series to the general public.

reply

The rating used to be 3.9/10 a couple of years back, and it deserved even less than that. I rated it 1/10 as it's horrible on every level.

reply

I felt asleep on Rambo 3, I therefore gave it a 3 for 3!

This. I loved and enjoyed all four films, I thought Rambo 3 kicked ass, the action in there was better than the last one IMHO.  Gave both Rambo 3 & 4 an 8.5/10

"it meant to be entertaining"

I almost fell asleep during the movie, and i had drank 2 coffees before watching it. It says a lot about how I enjoyed the movie. I gave it 4/10.

reply

Actually most people are wrong. This is actually the only Rambo film that is meant to be more than just entertaining, because of the subtlety the viewer is supposed to see things that are not on screen. So i don't wonder you fell asleep. lol

reply

Im surprised by 4.6 as well. I thought it would be lucky to crack 3.5. :)

reply

i thought all 4 rambo movies were different from eachother, yet they were all equally as great, i cant think of a more entertaining quadrilogy than this rambo series, absolutely spectacular, without a doubt the best action-series ever, a 4.6 rating is just sheer stupidity, whoever gave any of these movies a rating below 7 should be shot right thru the heart with a bow&arrow!

Im just watching all 4 at the moment' i'm on 3 at the moment. I think 3 is easily the weakest out of the bunch. I dont know why but the film bores me even though it is action packed I cant put my finger on what the problem is. I would rate it a 6.5 the other three all get a 10. I know they arent the Godfather but they give me an enjoyment factor of 10.

reply

A 4.6 is way too low. First Blood Part II has a 5.7. I know, it's pathetic. I think it's a disgrace to the ratings on here and an embarrassment to IMDB. People are crying about the Soviets being bad guys.

reply

I gave it an 8 but probably deserves a 6.5 or something like that.

I thougt this movie was just boring. It was kind of interesting during the first 30 or 40 minutes but once the action starts, the plot completely disappears from the movie. The action was neither suspenseful or entertaining. I didn't care very much for the characters. It also felt like it was an anti-soviet propaganda. It gets a 4/10 from me.

reply

once the action starts, the plot completely disappears from the movie.
Plots are series of actions and events ("actions" in the sense of intentional behavior, "events" in the sense of non-intentional behavior, occurrences (including "natural" occurrences), etc.). There are plenty of actions and events once the "action" starts.
