Get home, people protesting us, threating to harm our families, can't get a job because of our service. & can't hold a job, not because of PTSD, but because we can't relate to people & they can't relate to us.

Fun Fact (if someone hasn't mentioned it already): If you look behind Sheriff Teasle when Rambo's going on his rampage, you'll see three medals. Teasle himself, like Rambo, is a war veteran, but from the Korean War. He hates Rambo because the Vietnam War got WAY more attention than the Korean War did, and Teasle is angry about that war (Korean) being forgotten. Double Fun Fact: Stallone did that jump into the trees himself and about got killed for it. His injuries were: "a serious back injury and several broken ribs, in particular, due to performing his own stunt of dropping off a cliff and into a tree" (via Wikipedia).

@MrMoggyman 8 ай бұрын

Fun fact 2 - Stallone did one third of the jump from the cliff, and broke a rib. There were two stunt men and Stallone involved in the jump. Fun fact 3 - The last police officer carrying the post that Rambo tackled actually had his nose broken by Stallone Fun fact 4 - See when Rambo was stitching his arm up? Stallone went to the emergency room and was commended by the staff there as being a real man for stitching up the wound without pain killers. They never realised that it was only a theatrical prop. Fun fact 5 - Stallone went into a local bar full of tough loggers dressed as Rambo. Unfortunately he ordered up a Campari and soda, and the bar man and all the guys there went quiet. He then realised that his tough man image was blown, and made a quick exit. He should have ordered a bottle of whiskey, and told the bar man to leave it on the bar. Fun fact 6 - The sack cloth poncho Rambo made up Stallone has framed on his wall at home.

PTSD has had a long history of misunderstanding, and it is maybe only within the last decade that it has been seriously addressed. People at the time of this movie knew so little about it.

As George Carlin said, if they still called it shell shock like they did in the first world war, maybe these veterans would have had more help. PTSD sounds like a network connection.

Even if it wasn't well understood, at least the Army psychologists were trying. But a useful set of treatments and modalities based on a true understanding of the condition didn't emerge until DECADES later! A lot of civilian and government studies had to be done.

I attended a speech given by a severely wounded Viet Nam vet. His wounds were horrific. A white phospherous round hit him in the face. It burned off all of the skin even after he jumped in the water. Years of reconstruction surgery followed and he wore prostetics the rest of his life. He that there is no 'PTSD', but just PTS. Post-Traumatic Stress. Because the stress caused by what they went through is no disorder. It's natural.

As a Vet & a Combat Vet at that, to many Vets are treated for PSTD & all that does is make it worse. Because the issue isn't PSTD, the issue is transitioning from military to civilian life. Veterans to day are treated almost as bad as they where during the 60's & 70's. Coming back from Iraq on leave, we had to be sneaked out a back entrance because of protesters in the airport. Families of soldier & Vets where getting death threats. But because of media like ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN & MSMBC most people don't know that fact

Honest to god Sly should have gotten an Oscar nomination for this movie. Which the exception of Creed and Rocky 1 this is his best performance of all time. The final scene when he talks about how horrifying the Vietnam War was still makes me cry to this day. Also he very wisely had the ending changed as well as him killing no one directly. In the original book First Blood Rambo actually completely snaps and goes on a killing spree and the book ends with Colonel Trautman shooting and killing Rambo like he was putting down a rabid animal. But Stallone in his amazing foresight knew this character needed sequels so he encouraged the director and the studio to have him kill no cops or guardsmen and have him arrested instead of killed off.

you mentioned PTSD. Well, the VA did not recognize and admit that Vietnam Veterans suffered from PTSD until like 1992 or so, when the 1st Gulf War Veterans were returning. They received no counselling - nothing. To treat nightmares, headaches, sleeplessness, anger issues they were given pain and/or sleeping pills. My husband is a VV and he has told me some of the experiences he faced when in the military during that war. Not treated well at all. It is shameful for the way we civilians treated military personnel back then. And Rambo is right - you just don't turn it off. The memories are deep and painful scars that don't totally go away, subside and become less frequent - yes - but never ever gone.

They messed with the wrong War Veteran in this action adventure thriller film! Before Stallone was cast as Rambo, Harrison Ford, Paul Newman, Warren Beatty, Ryan O'Neal, Dustin Hoffman, Al Pacino, Robert DeNiro, Robert Redford, Jon Voight, James Caan James Garner, Burt Reynolds, Kris Kristofferson, Michael Douglas, Steve McQueen, Nick Nolte, Jeff Bridges, Clint Eastwood, and John Travolta were considered for the role. Before Richard Crenna was cast as Col. Sam Trautman, Kirk Douglas was cast in the role, but dropped out due to scheduling conflicts with another film. Rock Hudson was considered until Crenna, a real life WWII veteran, was cast in the role.

To this day, these vets, definitely need all the help they can get, this film, made us aware of real PTSD, and how it affects ppl, most of these poor guys were sent home, 48 hours after seeing combat!!! No decompression, no, time to adjust, just throw them back in to society, without any mental help, or ways to deal with what they had been through, God bless all of our veterans, they definitely deserve better, and our absolute respect.

So everyone from junior high on up had them. The simple fact that he has on a military style jacket WOULDN’T be a clue to anyone that he was a vet, in fact it might give them just the opposite impression because lots of vets avoid wearing military gear in public.

Vietnam veterans were treated sh!ttier than any other veterans who ever came back from war, in American history. "Rambo" is an illustration of this. They fought a war they did not ask for, for a decade, and then came home to an American public that HATED them, for reasons they had no notion of understanding. This is the dark side of the Civil Rights Era, which villified war in America (along with all of the good things that movement did). WW2 veterans came home as heroes. Even Korean, Gulf War, and War on Terror soldiers came back at least as American citizens, and were cared for, for their injuries and mental damage. But Vietnam vets never received this positive attention! They were treated as war criminals, for fighting a war that they did not ask for, on the other side of the world. "Rambo" exists as their voice. It speaks for THEM! The sequels... not so much. But the first Rambo movie is a special gift to society. That's why it should always be remembered by all of us.

This movie is based on a novel about the returning Vietnam vets and the emotional difficulties they faced. What the movie doesn't show is that the Sheriff was also going through personal trauma, in the book, his wife of 25+ years was in the process of divorcing him and he was grasping at every shred of control over his life he could.... then his best friend from childhood died in the chase he started, making it all personal. Rambo reacts in the only way he knows, guerilla violence, escalating everything in a spiral of violence that ends with the destruction of a small rural town in America.

Rambo is a Vietnam vet. Not exactly fighting for anyone's freedom there, and he knew it too. The Sheriff is a Korean war vet, and that adds to the tension between them. Well, adds to his animosity. Rambo at that point probably couldn't have known, he just knew there was no hero's welcome for the people returning home, where as the Sheriff viewed Vietnam vets as stealing the spotlight from the Korean war vets. That's all on top of the sheriff being a small town cop high on power.

The sequels that followed were almost like totally different movies and definitely weren't needed. They were made simply as a money grab following the success of the first movie.

The Vietnam Veterans were the worst treated war soldiers by the government and the American people. First Blood spoke to that era as no one saw them as heroes because the Southeast Asian conflict was a contentious topic for everyone involved, and the veterans got the blunt end of it. They came home with PTSD, and no family member could help or understand. While the government offered no support, many became homeless and addicted to drugs. Rambo became the voice and icon for many Vietnam vets.

When you realize that this film was shot when the Vietnam War officially ended seven years ago. A brave film. A film at the pulse of its time. Because at that time America had still not learned how to deal with its returned "heroes". The attitude of the population had changed fundamentally in the course of the conflict. The reason for this was the massive reporting. No other war before has been covered so intensively by the media. Not only the mainstream media, freelance journalists, war correspondents and so many others brought the unvarnished truth of the war into American living rooms. People didn't expect that. They couldn't handle that. However, the soldiers who had already suffered their trauma on the battlefield were traumatized again by the reaction to their return. No wonder so many of them never got back on their feet. A true tragedy.

This movie brought a lot of light post traumatic syndrome and how veterans were treated especially Vietnam vets

The reason he starts walking back into town is that it starts raining. Porbably figuring the he could at least convince the sheriff to let him stick around until the rain is over, rather than try to walk 30 miles down the highway in the rain.

Platoon is another good movie that shows some of the trauma that Vietnam Veterans had to go through. It was directed by Oliver Stone who was a real Vietnam Veteran, and he made all the actors go through some of the hellish conditions he had to go through in the jungle. And you see that come across in the actors faces.

You have to remember the time this was written. Back then we had only a cursory understanding of PTSD. I think PTSD was only coined shortly before this movie. Until then it was called Operational Exhaustion. It was only with work with Vietnam Vets AFTER the war that it became PTSD. Unfortunately, due to their unaddressed disorder, they didn't get the treatment they needed and would frequently freak out, causing damage to communities. George Carlin had a bit on euphemisms and specifically PTSD and why it should have remained being called "Shell Shock" and the veterans may have received the attention they needed. The hatred of Vietnam vets was still strong in the early 80s and thanks the Mass Media painting them as baby killers (some things never change), they were near universally reviled. Vietnam vets were looked at like walking timebombs. He technically DID break laws. Vagrancy is STILL illegal in many places, though many municipalities don't enforce the law. This whole movie was meant to be a wakeup call to the public that these are our sons and fathers who are in desperate need of our help. This might be a retcon of events, but both Stallone and Morrell claim this to be true. Though each man claims to be the progenitor of the idea.

This movie was a great metaphor for vietnam. A bunch of carnage, a bunch of violence. And in the end, it just ends. "This mission is over."

You guys are going a great job watching all these classics. I hope you can continue in this vein. When I first watched Rambo First Blood, I was quite young and didn't understand the why, but I enjoyed the action sequences. Watching it as an adult, the feelings of sadness, anger, and excitement, as well as the emotions evoked are much more pronounced.

Absolutely phenomenal film. The book obviously more intense and graphic but it gives you the understanding which most people in this time. Have no understanding of what Vietnam vets we're going through treated like even our bets today still don't get the recognition and respect what they put themselves through what they're made to do in war times and zones is beyond our comprehension. Vietnam veterans were belittled respected and thrown away. A lot of them ended up on the streets along with many other soldiers such as desert Storm. I love the disc film gave a little bit of an eye-opening for younger people to understand how much we should respect our veterans take care of them. They have given up a lot of themselves to fight for our country's freedom.

The book this movie is based on ends differently as far as I remember Rambo dies in the book (Col. Trautman kills him) and they did film that but the producers thought that there might be a sequel so they altered the ending to what is in the film now, that he is arrested.

This might be controversial, but my favorite Rambo movies are First Blood and Last Blood. Both have a similar melancholy tone and are smaller, grounded stories, which makes sense because they are both set in America. The other Rambo movies are basically superhero movies.

This was based off of a book, in the book the Police were very nice to Him, Rambo was the bad guy; in the book He killed everyone !! Stallone changed that, He said there's no reason for anyone to like Rambo, so He made it that He was nice and killed nobody!

You guy’s probably didn’t know that David Caruso was Mitch the young deputy and one of the most inexperienced who later played Horatio Cane in CSI Miami. The Sheriff wasn’t so much incompetent but he was corrupt and power hungry who just wanted to pick a fight with Rambo. Brian Dennehy was good at playing villains including even more corrupt and evil Sheriff Cobb in the western Silverado in 1985.

Stallone gets a lot of crap for his acting etc, usually directed at Rambo and Rocky. Well, anyone who actually bothered to Watch Rambo 1 & 2, And Rocky 1 & 2 would never dare criticize them - all four are brilliant films, with solid acting and story lines. Yes, things go wrong in the later films - thats the 80's for you - but even then the latest installations stand up fairly well - I its Rambo 5 (could be wrong, may be 4) when he's trying to save some do-gooder missionaries out in the jungle. And handing over from Rocky to Creed was also a master-stroke. He's a very underappreciated actor, writer and director. There is, however, a very funny / ironic scene in Rambo 3 or 4... the one where he single handedly defeats the entire Russian army in Afghanistan. He does a whole speech about what a fantastic warrior culture the Afgans are, how they will never yield to any invader, not even the corrupt evil Russians, and how they deserve to be free of oppression and outside influence.... a few years later, USA invaded... and lost. Ahhh, pop culture imitating life or life imitating pop culture, eh?!?!

I’ve seen many reactions to First Blood and, not being American myself, I’m always surprised that the majority of reactors are surprised by Sheriff Teague dislike for Rambo. Vietnam vets were not well received back in the US.

One thing that younger viewers need to understand is that Vietnam vets weren't particularly liked back in the 70s/80s: - Liberals saw them as bloodthirsty grunts serving the government's interests - Older veterans resented them because it made the rest of the population forget about their achievements as soldiers - Everyone else saw them as a reminder of the first conflict that the United States had 'lost' by withdrawing in their entire military history People like Rambo were worse than detritus as far as society was concerned back then. Criminals probably enjoyed a higher degree of status at that time. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that Rambo probably endured months of prejudice up to the point that Teasle confronted him.

27:50 In the book (First Blood published in 1972, on which this movie is based upon) THAT is the time and place when the Colonel shoots Rambo dead. I am glad they changed that in the movie, otherwise there wouldn´t be Rambo II
