Leave your thoughts about Rambo: Last Blood.
| Slant MagazineKeith UhlichThe Looney Tunes nature of Rambo’s murder spree tempers much of the script’s ideological offense. |
| UproxxVince ManciniThis movie is the product of truly deranged minds. It’s a must-see. |
| Film ThreatAlex SavelievThe film’s no-nonsense approach is a neat tribute to 1980’s action flicks of yore, where badass heroes said and did badass things. |
| Los Angeles TimesKenneth TuranWhile part of the film offers the expected, unsparingly violent action tropes typical of the series, there’s another aspect to the story, a surprisingly brooding examination of a warrior in winter, a dark story of a berserker who can’t let go, that’s in its own way bleaker and more despairing than we may be expecting. |
| IGNWitney SeiboldRambo: Last Blood captures everything that's gone wrong with this action franchise over the years. |
| New York PostJohnny OleksinskiRambo: Last Blood features what’s easily the most violent movie scene of the year. It’s awesome. |
| The Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckThe character deserves better, and so does the audience. |
| New York Magazine (Vulture)David EdelsteinQuick as it is, though, you have time to wonder how these Mexican assassins can watch their comrades getting skewered, dismembered, and eviscerated by Rambo’s traps and not think, Maybe we should pull out and rethink this assault. |
| The A.V. ClubIgnatiy VishnevetskyThe sequence is Last Blood’s pièce de résistance, and perhaps the only compelling reason the movie has to exist. But it’s also pure, relentless, grimacing punishment at the end of a joyless film, choreographed like a ritual sacrifice. Rambo has always been a monster, but in his old age, he has become something even worse: no fun. |
| The New York TimesGlenn KennyWhile the killings (replete with beheadings, dismemberments and more) are zestfully depicted — the director Adrian Grunberg has a way with pace and bloody impact to be sure — the picture overall is rote, mechanical. |
