      Tragedy of two people

      "First blood" was filmed a long time ago. My parents hadn't started dating in that era. However, every time I watch this movie when I’m bored in my spare time, there will always be some new experiences...
             The whole movie is very depressing, maybe it’s the director’s arrangement to let Rambo suffer from all kinds of abuses that are close to hell. To impact the audience's senses, it conveys the character of a tough guy; of course, Stallone's vicissitudes-filled appearance and...

      first drop of blood

      From Rambo's eagerly-anticipated trip to Oregon to find a comrade in arms to the shooting that happened after he met the bully sheriff. Scene after scene unfolded before his eyes. I don't know what Rambo went through, but from his painful recollections I can feel a small part of the unbearable, helpless, hysterical roaring he had at the police station at the end.
      "I remember a kid in Saigon, holding a boot box and asking me if I want to clean my boots? I said I don't have to, but my...

      He is not the "Emperor", but the Emperor

      He is not the "earth emperor", but the emperor. Not an ordinary policeman, but the town sheriff sheriff. He has administrative duties.
         He is not sent from above, but elected locally, so he only needs to be responsible to the townspeople. . So you see that he is not afraid of the colonel of the Ministry of Defense. . Except for federal and state courts, no one can order him. .
        
        His character is very bad, but what he did is not wrong in itself. A homeless person came to the...

      existence and silence

      Language, with the help of letters and sounds, translates thoughts into public codes that can be communicated, and expresses what one sees and thinks. The essence is to express self-existence. What does it mean to exist? Is one just living in this world? or one just living to death? Whether it is just to live or to die, why must language be used to express existence?

      In many cases, expression occurs in a struggle for survival, a necessity, a need to explain, and interruption,...

      "First Blood": Only old-fashioned action movies have the real truth


          I have never liked to watch films of field combat, action, and killing. Although "First Blood" is famous, it is also a vain name for me. With zero sleepiness, I accidentally flipped through "First Blood" on the client and took a look. No need to mention the story, what hit me was the real fight of Stallone's fist to the flesh in the film. Compared with the current special effects, blue backs, and keying, the "special effects" without technical assistance are only old-fashioned action...

      I have heard the famous classic for a long time, but I never thought that there is no footage of Vietnam at all. It is completely a PSTD war hero returning to China to abuse the sheriff. It seems to be very similar to another film or have I watched this before and forgot? In short, Stallone is by no means a coquettish bitch who only shows off his muscles, but a very thoughtful muscular...

      "Nothing is over! Nothing! You just don't turn it off! It wasn't my war! You asked me, I didn't ask you! And I did what I had to do to win! But somebody wouldn't let us win! And I come back to the world and I see all those maggots at the airport, protesting me, spitting. Calling me baby killer and all kinds of vile crap! Who are they to protest me, huh? Who are they? Unless they've been me and been there and know what the hell they're yelling...

The sheriff summoned a large...

    Movie quotes

    • Teasle: He was just another drifter who broke the law!

      Trautman: Vagrancy wasn't it? That's gonna look real good on his grave stone in Arlington: Here lies John Rambo, winner of the Congressional Medal of Honor, survivor of countless incursions behind enemy lines. Killed for vagrancy in Jerkwater, USA.

      Teasle: Now don't give me any of that crap Trautman. Do you think Rambo was the only guy who had a tough time in Vietnam? He killed a police officer for Christ's sake!

      Trautman: You're goddamn lucky he didn't kill all of you.

    • Deputy Lester: [referring to the mistreatment of Rambo] I was just talking to Mitch, and he said that Gault and a couple of the deputies were... a little hard on the guy.

      State Police Capt. Dave Kern: Assholes!

      Teasle: It doesn't make one goddamn bit of difference, Dave, and you know it! If one of my deputies... gets out of line with a prisoner then the prisoner comes to me with it. And if I find out it's like he says I kick the deputy's ass! *Me*! The *Law*! People start fucking around with the law then all hell breaks loose! Whatever possessed God in heaven to make a man like Rambo?

      Trautman: God didn't make Rambo, I made him!

    • Trautman: I don't think you understand. I didn't come to rescue Rambo from you. I came here to rescue you from him.

      Teasle: Well, we all appreciate your concern Colonel, I will try to be extra careful!

      Trautman: I'm just amazed he allowed any of your posse to live.

      Teasle: Is that right?

      Trautman: Strictly speaking, he slipped up. You're lucky to be breathing.

      Teasle: That's just great. Colonel, you came out here to find out why one of your machines blew a gasket!

      Trautman: You don't seem to want to accept the fact you're dealing with an expert in guerrilla warfare, with a man who's the best, with guns, with knives, with his bare hands. A man who's been trained to ignore pain, ignore weather, to live off the land, to eat things that would make a billy goat puke. In Vietnam his job was to dispose of enemy personnel. To kill! Period! Win by attrition. Well Rambo was the best.
