I have to say that this film was a real disappointment to the Rambo series because it didn't focus on the outline of the story. It was more focused on the action. I know Rambo is like that but it should at least have a decent story. It is very similar to a plot form a film that is like a kidnap-hostage sort of story. In my opinion that is what was so bad about this one. To me, Rambo III tries to interpret the first Predator film because they are both very similar within the jungle scenes and that. I know that Predator was released afterwards but Predator made a better impression of an action film with a good story than Rambo III did. It felt like Rambo III didn't even try at all.
I thought Sylvester Stallone's performance was even worst than Rambo: First Blood Part II because I thought he made Rambo a really weak character to watch and also he barely made him feel like the Rambo we know at all. I thought he was more like MAJ Alan "Dutch" Schaefer in Predator. He did deserve his Razzie win. He was simply awful! One thing that I find so irritating about Stallone portraying Rambo is that, yes, he does have the body (using steroids) and voice for the character but not quite the acting talent to portray that sort of character. The director seemed absolutely clueless as far as the action was concerned. He didn't show how it was adapting into the story. To me, it was just really poor. It should have been director who did either Rambo: First Blood or Rambo: First Blood Part II.
This film is the worst of the Rambo's. It is the worst of Sylvester Stallone but it certainly isn't the worst of all time. If you are just looking for so-called "decent" action then you could like it. Otherwise, avoid it because you may regret watching it!!
