...an entertaining, sporadically electrifying piece of work that makes up in thrills what it lacks in relevance.

It's a very bad film, but now has an interesting element when viewed in retrospect -- Rambo goes to Afghanistan to fight with the Mujaheddin against the Soviets.

A mindless and uninspired effort.
June 14, 2008
Engages the plight of the Mujahideen with a humanizing, doc-like approach (fascinating to witness, all these years later, when the ally/enemy tables have turned so drastically).

Strays slightly from the formula and therefore loses some of its mindless fun credentials.

Stallone scripts the wall-to-wall explosions too haphazardly and unimaginatively.
February 03, 2008
Lacking the overall mojo of the first two

Always at ground zero in the chaos is Rambo -- gloriously, inhumanly impervious to fear and danger -- whose character is inhabited by Stallone with messianic intensity.

Rambo may, in fact, have outlived his usefulness. His moment may have passed.

Mostly, Rambo III is one breathtaking sequence after another, with an absolutely mind-boggling scene with Rambo removing a spike from his side, and then sealing the wound with flaming gunpowder.

Mr. Stallone has by now made Rambo parody-proof, since the character is every bit as laughable as he is grandiose; that's part of the fun.
