No movie has ever depicted the brutal and horrific reality of war like "Rambo". A combination of no-nonsense direction, and clear acting convey the plight of the innocent people of Burma (and we can only imagine, that of similar people around other troubled parts of the world). We, the audience can be grateful that we live in a nation without such evil attrocities occurring to us and our families. The first time ever that I have been to the cinema twice to watch the same movie. Also, the first time ever that people of all ages and backgrounds stood up and applauded at the movie`s end, on both occasions. Mr Stallone should be commended for his work. A true masterpiece. .

I wouldn't say that it is the best ever, but I agree that it is a very very good film that I enjoyed a ton. Other movies that I think got it pretty good are "we were soldiers" and obviously "saving provate ryan." "flags of our fathers" is good too, but isnt about eh actuall fighting as much as politics. Rambo does do a very good job showing the utter brutality of totalitarian governments and how citizens' lives are demoralized to objects of sport. I also noticed how people of all ages seemed to appreciate this movie both for its great melding of action movie and real world problem themes.

OK, if you are serious, Rambo doesn;t come close, rambo NEVER came close, as it is filled with too much histrionics and superficial characters. you want brutality, "Saving Private Ryan", "The Big Red One" "All's Quiet on the Western Front" take the lead.

It was entertaining, but much of it was super-human fantasy. If you want to see a superbly written and directly war movie that depicts a turning moment in history, watch "The Longest Day." Not as entertaining, perhaps, but real and yet artful.

Haven't seen the movie so can't comment on it, but with respect to movies that accurately depict war, if you're looking for something from a much different perspective, try Das Boot. It's a German film about submarine warfare during WW II. Very realistic description. Also a very long movie. It will wear you out, emotionally.

Rambo was ok there are alot of better war movies out like we were soldiers,the patriot,flags of are fathers,saving private Ryan,and not that many war scenes but home of the brave was good really makes you appreciate the stuff we put our soldiers through.
