First Blood

First Blood

1982

You'd think in this first film in a long line of sequels, the law would learn not to mess with ex-Green Beret John Rambo (Sylvester Stallone). Alas, no. When he's harassed by local law enforcement, this Vietnam vet snaps, runs for the hills and rat-a-tat-tats his way into the action movie hall of fame. This edition includes commentary by Stallone and deleted scenes -- including an alternate ending.

One war against one man.
