Loved it. In fact REALLY loved it. Not often I leave the cinema happy that Ive just spent the best £7 ever but this was something special. Not everyones cup of tea but an action fans wet dream. God bless Sly may he continue to make more!!
Career, Wife, Mortgage... my sig was better when it listed guitars and PC's and stuff!

i was dubious about this expecially following the rocky (which i didnt rate) however yes the new rambo is quite good.

Cypher

I thought it was quite a decent movie actually.

The CG was a bit poor tbh, but I think hes just trying to close off his characters.

Whats next - Cobra 2??

Even though its very very easy to get a rea;;y good quality R5 rip of this, I would say its worth every penny to watch at the cinema 8-) If I had watched this for the first time on a boggo DVD setup I think it would have lost some of the magic :cheers:

Oh yeah definitely, I make special effort for any big film when I know that you really need to have an initial cinema viewing to get it all in with the full wow factor. :thumbup:

Agreed, having seen it yesterday I left feeling very satisfied and was impressed that they didnt hold back an inch on keeping it all raw. Fantastic action film! :wub:

A film really has to stand out for me for the accolade, but 5 w00ts for this! Oh and as Matt pointed out, spend the £6-7 on the cinema to see it. Its an experience, dont get some rip.

Not a common site when you think about it, sequels and long term ones at then seem to lead to being very more politically correct or aim for a lower age rating to try and be viewed by more thinking that that is the only means to bolster the viewers when in fact if they stay true to the movie series more then they are doing they would actually get a better film and more views.

Die Hard 4 was not a bad movie for example but from the main concept of the story to how it was filmed in terms of death, blood and swearing it just killed what a die hard movie is meant to be.

Die Hard 3 lacked some of the blood and action from the first 2 movies but what it replaced it with was two actors who bounced off each other well and made it entertaining.

What I found most amusing was the fact that I was the youngest person in the audience, everyone else watching was middle-aged or older, there were some retired couples in the audience. I think this says something about what people must expect of an action film these days and the sort of people that must either remember the first films and that generation well or knew they were in for something a far cry from the typical Vin Diesel xXx namby pamby bullsh*t.

You know else? They all left grinning saying how good it was.

Couldnt agree more - the cinema experience for this is essential - and Imnot a big cinema goer at all.

I still havent watched this yet but £7 to go to the cinema!  Ill get the R5.  Not paying that much its a joke.
Support your local  :yarr: until they realise that they are charging too much for the privilege of sitting in a cramped, stuffy cinema.

Loved the film :)

Really wanted the closing credits to show him walking across a bridge, police car drive up, "Where you head.... OH GOD!!!!!"
