The dark-horse box-office hit
First Blood spawned this even more successful sequel in which
Sylvester Stallone, reprising his role as ex-Green Beret loner
John Rambo, is extricated from prison by his former superior
Colonel Trautman (
Richard Crenna) for a top-secret operation to bring back POWs still held in Vietnam. Teamed up with a female Vietnamese freedom fighter (
Julia Nickson),
Rambo embarks on a "reconnaissance" mission. A love interest develops in the beautiful young guide -- she dies by enemy fire; he seeks revenge. Of course, there are also corrupt American officials behind the mission, and
Rambo saves them for last. Over the course of the film,
Rambo kills enough communist bad guys to fill the Rose Bowl, using everything from fishing line to exploding arrowheads to rocket launchers.
Stallone mumbles, grunts, and groans his way through this laughable and often insulting film intended to exploit anti-communist fervor at the height of the
Reagan years.
