Awesome movie.
1. Photography is excellent, dark atmosphere. The beauty of nature is breathtakingly depicted, as well as the miserable living conditions of the Burma people. 2. Great acting by Stallone, with no exaggerations. 3. Action is unparalleled. You will not want to move your eyes away from the screen from beginning to end. 4. Realism. What there is is what you get. 5. Sensitivity to a global issue: ethnic cleansing (reminiscent of the suffering of the Armenian people). 6. One of the best directions I have seen. Stallone has really surpassed himself with this movie. Outstanding. 7. The score is lovely and brings to the mind powerful memories from the previous Rambo films. 8. There is violence all over the place and continuously, but this is due to the intended realism and is quite justified by the story. Less violence would simply insult the viewer's intelligence.
