“I came to rescue you from him”

Classic line. Bad ass movie!

This is a film that I personally consider flawless as an action film. And this is probably my favourite Stallone performance. That scene where Rambo breaks down into tears and recounts something that happened in 'Nam was so powerful that it made me cry, that scene in my opinion is the best acted scene in Stallone's career.

When people mention Rambo they think about the character in the sequels just running around shooting but when you go back to the original, you can understand his pain & suffering, being in Vietnam is like a long nightmare.
All of this because he wanted to find a diner. Thanks a lot Sheriff.

"Youtube drew first blood; not me" - Oliver Harper

One of the best films about PTSD.

When he reaches fir Troutman to embrace him in the end scene—this probably the most vulnerable that Stallone has ever allowed one of his characters to be portrayed. Very well done and for me it makes the scene as it completes the breakdown of what was, essentially the psyche of a child who had to become War to deal with its horror, returned to the child he once was.

Excellent film and way more complex than it gets credit for. The mountain location is a character in itself too.

Stallone is kind of an underrated Hollywood genius.

I never noticed the war medals in the Sherrif's office before, that little detail makes the movie and his character even better!!

“I just wanted somethin to eat!”

First Blood is in every way the perfect action movie.
No matter how many time I see it.
It never looses its effect.

I've always felt the ending of the film was the strongest part. The fact that he still has a good man inside him that can be reasoned with really goes a long way to highlight how PTSD has damaged this man and how he's actually a victim and not an antagonist.  Im also very glad that he never directly killed anyone in the film

You made a good point about Stallone creating two iconic movie characters that have lasted decades the only other i can think of is Harrison Ford with Han  Solo and Indiana Jones.

First Blood is my favourite Rambo film and the only one I truly love.
Jerry Goldsmith was an epic composer! Damn, they don't make em like him any more.

My favorite line in the movie is the one where he says that in the army he could command million dollar equipment but in the world he can't even hold down a job parking cars. That line always gets me emotional

It took him four movies to finally get home.  If only that sheriff had let him get something to eat.

I, for one, am glad they changed the ending (and the story). I have read the book, and I feel that First Blood is a rare case where the film is actually better than the novel it is based on.
It is well directed, the acting is good, and the music is great!

Truly an A+ film in every respect, and one of my all-time favorites! I was bullied as a kid, and felt such a sense of catharsis watching Rambo stand up to the bad guys.

The Rambo franchise had some of the best one-liners of the 80s.
