Review of First Blood (1982) by Brian D — 01 Aug 2010
I love First Blood. I can't believe this movie is actually Sylvester Stallone. This is an absolute action classic.
Most people love that this is just a movie about Stallone kicking ass but underneath all that, it really is so much more.
It's really about bringing the horrors and the depth of the Vietnam war to middle America. That's where all the genius of this film therein lies. Brian Dennehy is absolutely despicable as the small town police chief who's just a little too big of a fish for a tiny pond who suddenly finds himself swept away into the darkest depths of the Atlantic Ocean.
This really is a movie for all the idiots and morons who spit of the Vets who came back from Vietnam.
