Critically Acclaimed: The Rambo Movies
Sylvester Stallone is RAMBO, a tragic allegory for the failure of the Vietnam War, a heroic allegory for America’s victory in the Vietnam War, a heroic allegory for Vietnam’s victory in the Vietnam War, and a tragic/heroic allegory for Burma. It’s a strange franchise with very contradictory messages, and we’re reviewing every single one of these RAMBO movies in an all-new Critically Acclaimed!
Plus! Reviews of the new releases SOLO: A STAR WARS STORY, MARY SHELLEY, HOW TO TALK TO GIRLS AT PARTIES, IN DARKNESS and the Amazon mini-series PICNIC AT HANGING ROCK!
