You guys actually wasted your money watching the new Rambo Movie??? What makes you think that Stallone learned to act since the other Rambo movies? Besides, doesn't he use a bow an arrow to take out a whole platoon? Yeah... whatever. 
Horror movies like Saw 4 seem more realistic.

WHAT???!!!
How can you not love Rambo. Where else could two men fight a mano-y-mano final battle with one in a tank and the other in an attack helicopter?
Reading back on that ... it does sound kind of stupid.
Oh well ... I'll still watch it. The last Rocky was suprisingly good.

Rambo was a safety violator! Firing that LAW out of the Huey! Sheesh!
I like BAD movies. Bruce Willis running around barefoot through broken glass in Die Hard with that pip squeak Beretta 9mm he has about a thousand rounds for (yeah, right!), any movie with Ah'nuld shooting like crazy and never reloading (Commando is a hoot!)....bad movies are so bad, they're good.
"You want a war? I'll give you a war you'll never forget!" Oscar worthy? Nope, just fun.

Jurassic Park is actually more realistic than Rambo. At least people get eaten! As for Lord of the RIngs, I never sat through any of them so I can't say. The bits I did see seemed interesting though.
I was channel surfing and saw one of the earlier Rambo movies. Its not really the "realism" I want from a movie. Its just that the acting sucks and the odds against him are so outlandish, yet he still kills everyone.
One quick bit of 80's-action-nerd trivia about that scene;
If you look closely in that scene when he fires the launcher, you can see that his firing hand changes postions and he's actually firing an RPG. The next camera shot shows him back with the LAW though. The RPG was from the "patrol boat" shot earlier in the film.
Truly an epic for the ages. Maybe Norris will follow suit with another Braddock.

You know ... I can understand why people might not like the Rambo series. Personally, I do, but that's my preference and I think they're a lot of fun.
Although it bothers me that Stallone talks about living life without fear and a bunch of other macho stuff and then is anti-gun, I actually think that with the right part he's a decent actor.
The first 2 Rocky movies were true classics. The 3rd was a lot of fun. And then you can pretty much jump forward to the last one -- which was pretty good too.
Of course ... there was also Judge Dredd ... that horrible movie with Dolly Parton ...
Maybe he should have stuck with Rocky and Rambo.

Chuck Norris (as himself of course, who else?) versus Sylvester Stallone as Rambo?
I liked Rambo because it did not try to twist accepted norms. It was like the westerns of old. The bad guys were clearly bad, and the good guys clearly good. The sense of justice surged when the bad guys got what they deserved.
Rambo and the other characters had to make individual choices of right and wrong. It showed when they chose the right decisions good things followed. The other thing I think the movie depicted accurately is the Burmese commander. It showed the child molesting and homosexual behavior for the evil perversion it is.
