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?

This movie was pretty good but not as good as Rambo 2. Rambo 4 was also a little better but the original First Blood is better than all of these movies combined.

The problem with Rambo 3 is the setting. All that cave and desert warfare is not that much fun to watch. Its great watching Rambo in the jungle where he can use his stealth skills to their maximum. The kid in this film was kind of annoying too, always getting in the way. LOL! Those muslims shouldn't let kids fight in a man's war. It also felt very much like anti-soviet propaganda. The thing is, half the people that watched this film probably didn't know anything about the afghan-soviet war but after viewing this, how could you not hate the soviets? So it just felt very one sided. And you gotta admit, the plot in this film is ridiculous. Rambo is able to get into a fort that heavily guarded?

But its not too bad for an action film. I kind of liked it. Its just not as good as the other Rambo films, especially the original which still blows all the sequels away.

It's not entertaining, just bad.

Its a bloated unfocused mess of a film.
The story is poor and underwritten, the action incoherent and confusing.
I loved the previous two Rambo flicks but found little enjoyment from this.
Believe what you want about the whole Taliban/Afghanistan vendetta; this movie is plain bad.

All the rambos were great. Screw critics. All that matters is what you think

Sure it's dated and a bit over the top but what 80s action movie isn't? It definitely deserves more respect.

I gave it a 1/10. You have to judge it as a movie, not an action movie, a western, a romance, a gay and lesbian movie or whatever...

For me this movie is one of the best action movies ever. At my childhood he standed with Terminator 1 and 2, Predator, Robocop and Aliens. 4 stars is pathethic.. War is a sh*t, it is not something we could like (as it seems after watching Hurt Locker).

I completely agree with you.
All of the rambo movies are legendary!
