And Even More Rambo
Later in the Sullivan link they reference the first movie...which, incidentally, is a great film. It should be taught in screenwriting classes for a both the structure and character.
And, this first Rambo IS a film which can be leg discussed in political terms because it is about the return from Vietnam. In fact, I'd argue, it can be put up there with some of the great Vietnam movies like Apocalypse Now, Deer Hunter, and Platoon, as worthy films contributing to the national dialog on Vietnam.
As for this newest Rambo, it's not good enough to discuss in political terms, nor is it popular enough to be able to contribute to the Iraq War discussion.
