First Blood is a 1982 American action film directed by Ted Kotcheff and co-written by and starring Sylvester Stallone as Vietnam War veteran John Rambo. It co-stars Richard Crenna as Rambo's mentor Sam Trautman and Brian Dennehy as Sheriff Will Teasle. It is the first installment in the Rambo franchise, followed by Rambo: First Blood Part II.
The film is based on the 1972 novel First Blood by David Morrell, which many directors and studios had unsuccessfully attempted to adapt in the 1970s. In the film, Rambo is a troubled and misunderstood Vietnam veteran who must rely on his combat and survival skills when a series of brutal events results in him having to survive a massive manhunt by police and government troops near the small town of Hope, Washington.
First Blood was released in the United States on October 22, 1982. Initial reviews were mixed, but the film was a box office success, grossing $125 million and becoming the 13th highest grossing film at the domestic box office[5] and the seventh highest grossing film worldwide. In 1985, it also became the first Hollywood blockbuster to be released in China, holding the record for the largest number of tickets sold for an American film until 2018. Since its release, it has been reappraised by critics, with many highlighting the roles of Stallone, Dennehy and Crenna, and recognizing it as an influential film in the action genre.
Its success spawned a franchise, consisting of four sequels (co-written by and starring Stallone), an animated television series, a comic books series, a novel series and several video games.

![[RE-UPLOAD] Rambo: First Blood Part II (1985) First Time Watching! Movie Reaction!](/img/n.gif)
This is actually an important movie. It's an action movie but does encapsulate how Vietnam Veterans were treated and especially how they were portrayed in media.
Gee, why would people be upset that you joined the war machine and went to another country following orders to kill people over there?
PTSD is no joke. My grandfather was among the first to stumble upon the concentration camps at Buchenwald in WW2. He would drink to forget, but then that's was all he would talk about.
Sylvester Stallone actually performed that cliff stunt himself. I believe he cracked some ribs for real on them tree limbs. Look it up. Sly’s a bad ass
Actually I believe it was a total of 3 stuntmen used for that. The initial jump is one guy, the freefall is another, and the last 3rd is Stallone, and he did genuinely injure himself landing on that tree. I watched this on DVD years ago with Stallone's commentary on all the scenes in the movie in the background. Stallone was very good at performing a lot of his own stunts, but not everything. That was a professional biker on the motorcycle. When he comes out of the river, that was Stallone and he said that water was slightly above freezing temperatures.
@@mikeshoe74 I’d have to look at it again, I could be mistaken?
@@mikeshoe74 I stand corrected sir! Lol You are right but it was him in the bottom half of the fall. Still a pretty risky stunt for a lead actor. Oh well, you learn something new everyday.
Lol and he also copies the plots of the late great Charles Bronson's movies
Chatos Land 1972
Death Hunt 1981 with the great
Lee Marvin and Carl Weathers
They used to have Rambo action figures and a Rambo cartoon too like : Now you too can be a renegade and tell the man to stick it where the sun don't shine.
I'm glad you're getting to see why Stallone is such a legend. The next one is classic 80's action. You'll like it.
My favorite line is when Teasle says "he killed a police officer for Christ sakes" and Trautman goes "You're GD lucky he didn't kill all of you."🔥🔥
He has PTSD it is not warranted to harass somebody on the side of the street. You should know that he got arrested for being in town. One of the most important movies about the Vietnam war is most people have no idea what happened to them and how they were treated when they returned home.
Man, if the only great thing about this movie was Rambo's monologue at the end, it would still be an epic movie but the whole thing was so different in its time. Now the next few Rambos are just action packed, pure 80's style non-believable fun
Officer Mitch is played by David Caruso who would later play a cop again in both NYPD Blue & CSI: Miami....his scream in the woods, from this movie was sampled & used in the Sega (both the arcade & Genesis/Mega Drive) video game 'Golden Axe'.
He was also a cop in a couple of more films - 'King of New York' and 'Jade', so that's at least five times.
One of the great movies of my childhood
Nah, youngin, that was FIRST BLOOD, like the novel it was based on. RAMBO title came later, when the sequel turned it into an action franchise.
Great reaction! Love your sense of humour! Lol This is one of my top favorite movies!! All he wanted was something to eat! Smh....
Yeah, first blood was the original name. Also, the dialogue troutman has for the first time when he visits Teasle, they cut out some of the best lines from the original movie release in 1982. I still have the VHS video of it, This is what he says, .
"You picked the wrong man to push. Teasle says, "No troutman ,he picked the wrong guy'.
The strangely cut out part starts here when troutman says, "That boy is a heart attack", "he may be the best that special forces has ever produced". "whatever you plan on throwing at him ,he's been through a lot more in a lot worse places than this"
Man I agree %120
All all the Rambo movies are worth watching 👍🏼
All the Rambo movies are different from each other but still great and worth watching. Don't let anyone discourage you from watching them.
Congrats on 2k bro
Watched this in the theater, it was great. ✌️
RIP to Brian Dennehy (The Sherrif) who passed away in 2020. Great actor. He often played tough characters, but was said to be a very nice guy, and super generous. A lot of the extras used in the film were unemployed locals and going through very tough times economically. Dennehy was known to pay the bar and restaurant tabs for them while the movie was being filmed.
Great in Cacoon
In the book both Rambo and Sherif are war Veterans one Korea the other Vietnam and in the end of the book they both die
the rambo movie's are excellent
Stallone actually did his own stunts in this movie.
Stallone has chops!
The book expands on it, but back then, a lot of Korean war vets (which this cop was) and WWII vets, seemed to despise nam vets, or at the least turn their backs on them for losing the war. Also being over there when a lot of people felt, we shouldn't be there, it was the first widely televised war, and the public/vets all heard or saw brutalities like villages being burned, some soldiers killing kids/babies, and preggo ladies, also a lot of rapes. Many soldiers lost their fucking minds over there with all the drug use, and paranoia from all the booby traps, and tactics the Viet Cong. They were always hiding in the jungles and in little rat holes/tunnels, they knew how to use the jungle unlike Americans who were out of their element, you had to have ears and eyes in the back of your head, the top of your head, on your back, everywhere and that kind of stress breaks you mentally.
A lot of old vets felt like they shouldn't be there fighting farmers and shit, not real soldiers. If you pay attention to the cop's office he has korean war shit hanging on the walls. That was stallone who actually jumped off the cliff into the trees. That scream he let out was real, he broke a rib or two.
"Only their skilled police training saved their lives". Damn, talk about some liberal spin doctoring 😆🤣👍
Edit: Don't know if it was intentional but the chipmunk voices for the National Guard was gold! 🤣😂🔥👏
Please do all 5 of these 🙏🙏🙏🙏please
4:53 I collect knives. That knife to me is just a normal OAL (overall length) knife.
The First Blood book and film reference a time when PTSD and the value/needs of Vietnam vets weren't taken as seriously as they are today. I don't have much sympathy for homeless lifers, however, at least not for expensive yet ineffective propositions purportedly passed to aid them.
You should really watch all 5 movies. Rambo II is good. Rambo III is OK, but it does continue the story. Rambo (2008) is probably the best one. Last Blood is very good also.
Great reaction 😎
I saw this movie in High School and then after graduating college I enlisted (yeah enlisted) in the Army in 1988 for four years. I was in Iraq as a medic and got the CMB. Very odd.
You need to watch the other Rambo movies
The name of the movie is first blood about a man named John Rambo partly based on a true story. As for Rambo the second movie because the first film bacame so popular they decided to continue about Rambo's story even though the second movie is not based on John Rambo real life story they called it Rambo and in small letters they had first blood part 2 but later releases they removed that and left it as Rambo.
Could've all been avoided if the sherriff just drove him to the waffle house smh
The rest are fine but have a totally different tone. They're just kinda normal cheesy action movies without most of the heart this one shows.
First Blood was more of a drama with some action elements, whereas the sequels, although equally entertaining, are more straight up popcorn action entertainment, in my opinion...
Murdock...I'm coming to get YOU!!! 😂
@@vancelubben5300 Maybe don't with the spoiler next time?
@@anthonymiele4320- Ernest when he went to jail in 'Ernest Goes To Jail' said the exact same line, poking fun at Stallone,... oops a satirical spoiler, lol. 😆
@@MLJ7956that's not an opinion, that's facts. The Rambo sequels were billed as action movies, straight up. That's what they are. Weak on story telling and character development. Just have Rambo as a one man killing machine wiping out all the bad guys.
The old black lady look like NBA young boy
Officer Mitch is crazy 🤣🤣
All he wanted was a sandwich.
❤❤
The sequels especially 2&3 are more of what you expect with 80's action there's also a 4 just titled Rambo and it's very graphic but great then Rambo last blood the 5th and final but it's not that great and was unnecessary. But yeah i'd watch the others they are all different in their own way.
Personally, I think that Rambo 5 is better than 3 (which I still love) and a perfect ending to the series.
Stallone always copies the plots of the late great Charles Bronson's movies
Chatos Land 1972
Death Hunt 1981 with the great Lee Marvin and Carl Weathers
Bully cops to military guys and civil people, was a thing back in the days. Even still.
When the soldiers came back home, civilian people, the media were against the soldiers, government didn't take care of health and mental health care for the soldiers either.
Combine that with bully cops, was a bad mix of cocktail for the soldiers.
Rambo crying on mainstream tv, was a big thing too.
Before that, many male lead in Hollywood roles, were tough guys, womanizing roles.
This made though guys in movies, human with emotions.
You see the colonel almost tear up, because Stallone 's cry, acting.
Hit home for him, the actor was in war too, and lost comrades.
🫡
He cries in his other movie that year too, Rocky III
It still is in some places. I’ve experienced it myself. Its not as bad as in the post Nam days though. Those guys got fucked on both ends. I always say Welcome Home when I meet a Viet Nam Vet. Why? Because nobody did that for them & a lot were forced into that brutality.
@@vancelubben5300I know exactly how he feels. Ive climbed out of the pit of Hell after the fighting was done. Its not just the violence but the training too but how do you expect to win unless you dehumanize your opponent. Its fucked up & there’s a better way. If we ever figure it out.
Anyways, that ending always gets to me. It hits real close. I hate what they did to the character & turned him into a cartoon.
They had no business in Vietnam in the first place. Just following orders is not an excuse. If you sign up and join the war machine, you don’t deserve respect from people.
How many bootlickers come up to you in public and thank you for your service not knowing who the fuck you are or what you did? Americans are brainwashed to support the military.
The title is first blood
Next part 2
You've got my last view my friend, you're constant cussing is too much. Every other word. Notice all the top channels don't cuss every other word. Ignore my advice, best of luck to you!
Good for you man.
Part 3 is total shit, the others are good though.
