What do you get when you re-engineer a Reagan-era hero for the MAGA age? Our review of the toxic fearmongering that is 'Rambo: Last Blood'
When we last saw John Rambo — Vietnam vet, social pariah, savior of POWs and stoic killing machine — he was saving missionaries and mercenaries in war-torn Burma at the end of Bush II’s second term. Then our man returned home to Arizona, walking down the dusty path to the front door of the Rambo family ranch and, presumably, towards a sense of peace. That was then; this is now.the maybe, possibly, could-be final chapter of the franchise , finds the warrior at rest and in full Marlboro Man mode.
Ever since the series started adding its hero’s name to the title with its second, straight-outta-Reagantown 1985 entry, these movies have hewed to more or less the same template: Stallone’s iconic character just wants to be left alone. He gets dragged into a conflict, he gets knocked down, shit gets crazy — Rambo, rinse, repeat.
