@@lencavallaro6781 The book and the movie don't have that much in common though, in the book Rambo is a complete psychopath who kills everybody with little care for anything
@@valdivia1234567 oh yeah I did too, he was a very good actor, but I lost respect for him when he said how he was in Vietnam doing battle and he never was and what really kinda pissed me off is after he admitted that he wasn't in the Vietnam war, years later during an interview he lied again about being in Vietnam, like, wtf was the dude thinking,, hope I'm not babbling too much here, LoL, but do you know the actor Charles Durning? Google him and read his Wikipedia,,,, be prepared to be blown away by what that guy did,, he was a legit badass, check it out bro
The cast of this movie was absolutely gold. Every single character was a home run. From the deputies to the National Guardsman to the main stars, all were just like I would imagine in real life. And the media saying dumb shit like "...only their law enforcement training saved them..." was a nice touch
It’s such a great movie ,I live in Vancouver. And HOPE is a great little town. But it made that little town. Such a famous place !!!I Pass through there every time I go camping. And I think of Rambo! It’s so cool to think that little town has such a great Movie that was filmed there. 😎😎😎
Sly genius in each possible aspect and how wise and deep think he have about why Rambo can't die at the end it's amazing that nobody except him not think about that from such point of view
It’s nice to hear the filmmakers give props to the late cinematopher Andrew Lazslo. Other films he photographed were The Warriors, Southern Comfort and The Funhouse. He also lensed the notable concert film The Beatles at Shea Stadium.
Richard Crennas as Trautman was so epic there could of been no other person to play that part the same as Rambo no one could of filled them shoes the same it was a wonderful series of movies I’ll never forget in this life time Sylvester Stallon was golden the best to ever work a movie set
I always wondered how Sly did all of those stunts in such cold, wet weather in just an undershirt! I thought maybe he had a stunt double and did his scenes in a warm, dry studio, but I guess he did most of them himself. That's amazing!
I remember the first time watching First Blood when I was young and starting the Army cadets. This movie really captured me, it was an all time favorite. A powerful albeit obscure reminder of this movie for me, was listening to the acoustic guitar mid section of the Ozzy Osbourne song Diary of a Madman, which had that army sounding marching drum. It's weird how some music evokes the feelings and images of certain periods of time in our lives.
I watch this movie at least three times a year. I watched Part 2 the other day. I remember loving it in 1985. Now I look at it as absolute trash. First Blood should have been the only one in the Rambo series.
The novel first blood was a very dark story if it would have been made as it was written by David Morrill it would have been a horrible movie and probably would have never been shown ever again after it's release but Sly Stallone knows how to make a great movie and rewrote it and it became a one of the greatest movies ever but they did do a version like David Morrill wrote and if they were going to use that Stallone wanted to buy back the negative and burn it so it would never be seen again, Kirk Douglas was a great actor but I believe it's best that he didn't do it and Richard creena took the role of tratman, Richard creena was best for the role
David morrell, it is a complely different novel for sure, glad sly had the vision to change it up and say "I'm not dying in this" 👍 classic 80s action movies won't be beaten EVER, golden age of action movies, no messaging, no identity politics, just balls to the wall action that we all loved to see.
Of all the things they talked about they skipped the part I always wondered about lol ..The arm stitching scene..lol It looked so real, as he stitched with the blood coming out evenly.. I would love to know how that was done, one of the best special effects I remember seeing in television..
My all time favourite film, I have seen it a hundred times. I remember reading a newspaper article many years ago talking about the awful violence and many deaths, it was obviously written by someone who had not seen the movie, Rambo does not kill a single person in this film.
My all time favorite Stallone movie, First Blood. My second favorite Stallone movie is Rocky (first one). I could watch First Blood daily and not get sick of it. Lol!
@barrycrosby8602 - That depends on which films were "overacted unrealistic crap" in any period of time and which ones were not. After all, you shouldn't just assume that all films were "overacted unrealistic crap" anyway.
A very good movie. I’m seeing comments about it being on of the best movies ever. Not sure about that, but that’s what makes movies so cool, very subjective.
SUCH a timeless gem of a film! And have to say, I'm glad they sent Kurt Douglas packing 😅😝 Fully agree with Sylvester Stallone what he said about the veterans, the ending needed sensitivity and meaning, and he definitely portrayed that with that iconic ending performance. It's horrible, powerful and beautiful in such a small amount of time. Also, for those who've played the Metal Gear Solid games, isn't it awesome how much the colonel resembles Richard Crenna's Trautman 🙂
They don't make good movies like this anymore. The 80s rocked.
Got that right👍 Barely any “ real “ men left in the industry these days. Thank GoD we still have…🫡STALLONE🇺🇸
@@ReiSuzumura well said! so true.
yeah and this wasnt good
@@bill-nj6fc You didn't like Rambo?
still my all time favorite movie, i still keep my reproduction first blood survival knife on my bed stand, just in case
Im happy with Richard Crennas job as Trautman. He nailed the Colonel.
Agreed.
Are you sure?
Nobody could have played trautman better than richard crenna he was made for that part brilliant
its allways like this... if Kirk take the role maybe you have been write the same...
@@ste123456754
He was real U.S. Army and served in WW2.
The best of the Rambo series.
easily
Because it was based on a great story that was the book
Agree.
Rambo is a top 100 movie. It is extremely difficult to replicate something like that. It's been done but only a hand full of times
@@lencavallaro6781 The book and the movie don't have that much in common though, in the book Rambo is a complete psychopath who kills everybody with little care for anything
One of the best movies ever!
Hell yeah
Nothing is over 😢
You just don't turn it off
You are right about that. This is an amazing movie.
RIP Brian Dennehy. absolutely nailed it,
Him and Jack Starrett
The fake Vietnam Vet
Brian was AWESOME in First Blood, that role really made him a household name. RiP
@@Gregory-sm9pf Yeah that was disappointing. I had liked him until all of that.

Richard Crenna was marvellous ❤
He acted with john candy in summer rental.
Yes he surely was!
The cast of this movie was absolutely gold. Every single character was a home run. From the deputies to the National Guardsman to the main stars, all were just like I would imagine in real life. And the media saying dumb shit like "...only their law enforcement training saved them..." was a nice touch
Vancouver TV reporter Mike Winlaw essentially played himself.
@@valuedhumanoid6574 Trautman describing Rambo was pretty dumb shit also, 😅
Crenna has the stuff that Kirk Douglas never could have hoped to match.
Kirk Douglas is not so easily outclassed
He would have over acted the crap out of that role.
@@dbc1dc acting is over-acting
Sylvester Stallone is the biggest actor of Hollywood and with this movie he became my childhood hero.
Richard Crenna was the best
I rented First Blood out on VHS so many times back in the day. I have it on Blu ray now. 😊
Great movie
Trautman was my favorite character in First Blood. No one could have played it better.
@@tbone21158 bang on m8 class act as trautman
Ecstatic Douglas acted like a prima Donna
Rambo will Always be An Icon!!!!
By far the best Rambo movie ever!!!!
Definitely!!😅
Yes way better than all the rest combined!
Stallone being a writer at heart makes him a great actor as well.
Very rare.
Greatest action movie ever made.
Crenna nailed that role.
Masterclass movie
Best Rambo by far
@@ziruk-king4466 Followed closely by 4
This movie blows away the rest that followed. One of my favorite movies of all time.
One of the greatest movies ever made and will always be.
One of my favorite movies.
That movie was perfect.
having anyone but Crenna as Trautman is unthinkable
In my opinion the best action movie ever made.
@kdee8166 mine too great film never a dull moment
Sly is so good in this, should’ve been nominated for an Oscar
What piece of pure art 🎨
Sylvester Stallone was fantastic in the Rocky series and Rambo trilogy’s
Saw this new in the theater as a Junior in High School. It was excilerating to watch. Excellent.
It’s such a great movie ,I live in Vancouver. And HOPE is a great little town. But it made that little town. Such a famous place !!!I Pass through there every time I go camping. And I think of Rambo! It’s so cool to think that little town has such a great Movie that was filmed there. 😎😎😎
Col. Truatman kicked arse. Glad it wasn't Douglas.
second that i do think kirk douglas is a great actor but not for this film
richard crenna was awesome, just like the movie!❤️
Back when movies were still made the way they supposed to be! One of the very few movies that my late father actually liked and talked about.
I will never tire of this film 🎥
Crenna will forever be honored as Col. Trautman for all eternity.
I still remember when I watched this movie in the movie theater back then! Great movie
Sly genius in each possible aspect and how wise and deep think he have about why Rambo can't die at the end it's amazing that nobody except him not think about that from such point of view
No wonder it was such a fantastic unrepeatable films of ALL time .love it
After all these years, this is still my favourite film. One of the best 👏👏👏
Rambo can't die otherwise your preventive from making endless Rambo sequels.
Nah - It was a purely artistic decision I'm sure.
@@smw381st okay, based on your response I revised my original comment as not to exaggerate with the 100 figure.
@@davidr4523 Ok Bud
The music is fantastic as well. The end credit roll with the song playing is very emotional.
Great action movie
Great cast
My favourite movie and filming location….amazing film
Perfect movie with a phenomenal cast and a musical score by the genius, Jerry Goldsmith!❤❤❤
Welcome to 1982.
Sly will forever be a legend.
He's as good as Eastwood, Deniro, and Pesci.
Great movie, glad that Richard got the part.....
It’s nice to hear the filmmakers give props to the late cinematopher Andrew Lazslo. Other films he photographed were The Warriors, Southern Comfort and The Funhouse. He also lensed the notable concert film The Beatles at Shea Stadium.
I Grew up with this movie. It was a big part of my life. I've watched this movie 112 times. And can still watch it no problem
Awesome movie
Richard Crennas as Trautman was so epic there could of been no other person to play that part the same as Rambo no one could of filled them shoes the same it was a wonderful series of movies I’ll never forget in this life time Sylvester Stallon was golden the best to ever work a movie set
He may be egotistical, but he's earned it. An icon of cinema.
Took 19 takes for the billy club across the back scene? 19 takes? Can't imagine how hard acting must be.
Oh it is , keeping the continuity is challenging
I always wondered how Sly did all of those stunts in such cold, wet weather in just an undershirt! I thought maybe he had a stunt double and did his scenes in a warm, dry studio, but I guess he did most of them himself. That's amazing!
Great movie!
One of my all-time favorite movies. It's one of the few that I liked more than the book.
this movie is one of the most underrated MOVIES of all time. not action movies. movies, period.
What a brilliant film. Still resonates now as it did then . Brilliant cast .
Still one of the greatest movies of all time!!!
Stallone the action icon for all seasons. Great movie.
I was in Hope the other week for the first time. It was great seeing the Rambo tour!
These were the times everyone worked their socks off to make a movie on location .No CGI.
There would have been CGI if it was available.
I have First Blood on 4K UHD disc. It's awesome watching it in high quality, like it came out yesterday.
One of my all time favourite movies since being a kid. Massive nostalgia trip for me this. And the sound track was literally amazing.
I love this movie so much, thank you Sly, thank you Richard Crenna and of course Brian Dennehy his contribution to the success of First Blood is huge!
There was a special vibe about that movie from the music to cinematography
I remember the first time watching First Blood when I was young and starting the Army cadets. This movie really captured me, it was an all time favorite.

Great sound on this video
love this film
I love how Stallone honored our Vietnam vets by saying John Rambo would not die at the end of the movie...Classy move.
I watch this movie at least three times a year. I watched Part 2 the other day. I remember loving it in 1985. Now I look at it as absolute trash. First Blood should have been the only one in the Rambo series.
You would have missed a second chance if the didn't make it. At least you know now how it would have been
All time classic.
i was a kid in 82 it was the best i seen this move about 30 time it never gets old
This is my most watched movie of all time.

That’s exactly my thoughts too, I’ve never seen anything so real, I literally thought it was opened up on purpose for the scene.
@@thedigitalemotion Right? lol

Awesome action movie with a message
Stallone s solid foundation movie.An epic legend...Rambo.All the cast and all the energy of that movie....was spacetime
I'm glad they all stick to the original script.
Now that`s a movie!!!
John was gold for this part
Don't push me. Don't push me ..
It's always interesting to see BTS footage👍💯 First Blood was awesome and 1 of my fave Sly Stallone flicks❤
My all time favorite Stallone movie, First Blood. My second favorite Stallone movie is Rocky (first one). I could watch First Blood daily and not get sick of it. Lol!
The music is fantastic 👌
If only they could make movies like this now, rather then the overacted unrealistic crap we get today
@barrycrosby8602 - That depends on which films were "overacted unrealistic crap" in any period of time and which ones were not. After all, you shouldn't just assume that all films were "overacted unrealistic crap" anyway.
Hes right all films now are overacted pieces of cgi garbage
Exactly 💯
Must have seen this film at least a dozen times, also been to Hope where it was filmed, brilliant movie.
Loved the book, far better than the movie.
That movie amasing and perfect.
A very good movie. I’m seeing comments about it being on of the best movies ever. Not sure about that, but that’s what makes movies so cool, very subjective.
It was a great experience to work on this movie 🎥
Great line, he'll eat things that would make a Billie goat puke, love it, 😅
True! If the line was; "make a Billie goat sick" it would've been completely different, less-shocking.
I just saw this week Rambo I and Rambo II. They are pure testo art.
Great film!
We Holidayed in British Columbia in 2023. Stunning scenery 🇦🇺
The best movie ever
Rambo Must Die...now THAT should be the final Rambo title in the series.
Rambo Last Blood, best title for ending the series.
That would be an awesome title!
Richard was awesome
I’m glad they didn’t kill off Rambo cause the 4th edition was awesome.
SUCH a timeless gem of a film! And have to say, I'm glad they sent Kurt Douglas packing 😅😝
