Too bloody, but still moving

It was so bloody that he could scratch his throat with his hands and kill him. Slashing people's stomachs with a knife, almost cutting them in half, heavy machine guns, rocket launchers... It's terrible, maybe it satisfies the desires of those violent elements. The action superstar Stallone, who is nearly 60 years old, wrote, directed, acted and produced himself, "alone" and continued to write this legendary film, which is as legendary and full of wisdom as the story of the lone hero Rambo in the film. I haven't seen the first three parts of First Blood.

What moved me was the hard work for life. After nearly 60 years of civil war, the Karen people on the Thai-Myanmar border faced brutal and inhuman treatment by Burmese soldiers such as torture, violence, and massacres. Burma's military regime has laid landmines along the road to the refugee camps, making outside aid to the Karen even more difficult. In fact, Rambo gave up and became a hermit by helping others catch poisonous snakes to make a living.

However, despite this, a group of enthusiastic American missionaries and doctors are still trying to change this situation. They hope that Rambo, who is familiar with the environment, can take them into the refugee camp. Of course, Rambo, who was absolutely opposed to them entering the refugee camp at first, was later was persuaded. Sarah's credit, a woman, hehe, I thought there would be a love story about Sarah and Rambo later, no, it's because Stallone is old, otherwise, there will definitely be love, show muscles or something.

The middle and last parts of the film are the essence of the rescue of the trapped American hostages, and Rambo returns to his old business. So, a life-and-death struggle began, and the enemies who were hit were almost all smashed to pieces. That scene was too violent to say it.

I really like the song and picture at the end of the film, but I don't know the name of the music, but it moved me again.
