While part of 'Rambo: Last Blood' offers the expected, it's also a surprisingly brooding examination of a warrior in winter, that’s in its own way bleaker and more despairing than we may be expecting (review by KennethTuran)
While some actors resist even playing the same type more than once, Sylvester Stallone has made a career out of, in effect, saying: “Bring it on.”
After all these years, these characters function as kinds of alter egos for Stallone, and, questions of story aside, it’s intriguing to watch them age both physically and psychologically as the actor does.
The initial setting here is the horse ranch in Arizona hinted at a decade ago in the closing images of 2008’s “Rambo,” a place where, in an attempt to keep his raging PTSD in check, the man pops pills and has constructed an intricate system of tunnels he spends quality time in.What is new for Rambo is that he’s found a surrogate family, college-bound Gabriela and her grandmother Maria , both acquired when Gabriela’s mother died and her father skipped town.
Although Gabriela says she changed her mind and won’t go, there wouldn’t be any movie if she stayed home, so off she goes to Mexico and a world of trouble she cannot even imagine. But once the action shifts to south of the border , things have a way of turning out worse than even Rambo anticipates., the old man the bad guys arrogantly mock, initially without any coherent plan for freeing Gabriela and needing the conveniently provided help of independent journalist Carmen simply to stay alive.
