Editorial Review:
It's easy to forget that this Spartan, violent film, which begat the Rambo series, was such a big hit in 1982 because it was a good movie. Green Beret vet John Rambo (Sylvester Stallone) wanders into the wrong small town to find a fellow 'Nam buddy and gets the living heck kicked out of him by the local law enforcement (led by Brian Dennehy). The vet strikes back the only way he knows how, leading to a visceral, if unrealistic, flight and fight through the local mountains. Based on the 1972 novel by David Morrell, this film saved Stallone's then-foundering career and the Rambo character became the inspiration for countless political cartoons. But this film is Deliverance without the moral ambiguity. --Keith Simanton

Rating: - 1st Blood
I still love and enjoy this movie everytime I watch it. Thanks to blu ray technology, it got so much better. Big improvement with the picture quality and sound. A great addition to your movie library. I recommend it. Enjoy!
Rating: - Involving survivalist flick
Although the next two Rambo movies get progressively sillier, this is a good movie that has a surprisingly moving finale.
Apart from the bull headed attitudes of the local cops, we see a veteran who is a genuine guy. And we see him hurting. The final scenes, after tremendous destruction and skills with violence, are thought provoking and emotional.
A surprisingly thoughtful movie.
Rating: - Pretty good action movie.
This is a pretty good action movie. Now you probably know that considering the title First Blood. But this movie is not only decent, violent, and cool, but it stars one the greatest actors ever, Sylvester Stallone. Now, this movie isn't my favorite, or the greatest action movie ever. But it has enough violence for you to like it, for those who like violence. It's not a total blood body count shooter like Scarface or The Punisher. You've probably even already seen this. It's sort of a classic. ... Read More
