I've seen this movie on every format it has been released on. And I have enjoyed it each time. But with the Blu-Ray format, the picture and sound really add to this movie in a way I never thought possible. Watching this movie on any other format is alright, but if you want the full experience, Blu-Ray is the only way to go! I suggest grab a Blu-Ray player, a 1080p HDTV, and a decent surround sound system and sit back and enjoy the ride.

The Blockbuster description for this movie is wrong. Rambo does not kill anybody until after he flees into the hills, and this 'killing' was accidental, to boot. Rambo also does not kill everyone in a '50-mile-radius'. In fact, he lets people live and only kills one person in the whole movie. Who wrote that description anyway?

Very good Action Movie. Does Stallone much justice. Even if you not a fan this is a movie to get if you want an old school action movie with brain.

This is a great movie but it was an even better book. If you get the chance read the book but it can be hard to find.

i love 80's action flicks and this movie defined the genre. It was great and i love stallone. It is a bit of a boy movie but a great one.

Much more than the cheap macho escapism the word "Rambo" has become associated with, First Blood suffers from an overly eager attempt to make Rambo sympathetic, which takes some of the bite and tension out of the finale, which would work best with Rambo as an unstable quasi-villain. Took the safe path and is less interesting as a result.

Rambo First Blood started off the trilogy and I've been a die hard Rambo Fan ever since. This movie isn't too heroic, meaning that the character seems average, but very skilled as a green beret. I like movies where the character and the story line evolves and your not left thinking "only in the movies". Good stuff!
