- First Blood
Upon returning to the United States, Johnny J Rambo (Sylvester Stallone) has difficulty adjusting to civilian life and wanders the country as a drifter. In the beginning of the movie, Rambo was traveling to the fictional town of Hope, Washington, in search of a Special Forces buddy named Delmore Barry. Rambo arrives at Delmore's supposed residence and finds out that Delmore had died from cancer. He then travels to Hope in the attempt to find a diner and maybe a temporary job. However, the over-confident town sheriff Will Teasle (Brian Dennehy), does not welcome Rambo, judging Rambo negatively because of his long hair and scruffy look. The sheriff then takes rambo to the edge of town and drops him there. Rambo disobeys the sheriff's order to stay away from Hope, as he has done nothing wrong to the community and because of that he was cuffed by the sheriff and taken to the police station.
The harassment triggers flashbacks of Rambo's traumatic memories of his torture at the hands of the Vietnamese when he was a prisoner of war, and his mind regresses into thinking he is once again fighting in combat. Rambo fights his way out of the sheriff's department with his bare hands and makes his way into the wilderness via a stolen motorcycle. A manhunt ensues. The sheriff and his deputies cannot win against Rambo in the forest, and sheriff and his men were all badly wounded as a result of trying to capture him. Rambo deals with them efficiently and although capable of doing so, he doesn't kill any of them. However, he unintentionally kills a police officer in self-defence by throwing a rock at a helicopter, causing the pilot to lose control and an officer to fall out. The Washington State Patroland and about 200 members of the Washington National Guard are called in to assist.
At this point, Colonel Samuel Trautman (Richard Crenna), the former commanding officer of Rambo's old Special Forces unit, arrives in town and talks to the sheriff. Trautman warns that continuing the manhunt is dangerous to the authorities, as Rambo is too experienced to be captured easily in the wilderness where he thrives. Instead, Trautman recommends giving Rambo time to return to his senses by allowing him some time to settle down and can be arrested without incident. However, the authorities reject Trautman's recommendation and continue the manhunt, and Rambo's subsequent rampage culminates in the destruction of the sheriff's office and most of the town's main street. Rambo stands poised to eliminate the sheriff, but Trautman finally confronts Rambo face-to-face, and ultimately convinces his former soldier to surrender to the authorities.
All in all, I say that this is a great movie, I give this movie a 7.5 / 10
