“Sylvester Stallone achieved amazing heights during the 80u0026#39;s, along with Arnold Schwarzenegger, especially as a movie character synonymous with the muscled guy who is a pure fighting machine…u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIn Ted Kotcheffu0026#39;s u0026quot;First Blood,u0026quot; John Rambo (Stallone) is a highly decorated Vietnam veteran who was trained specifically as a killing machine… He has come to a quite little town in Oregon, only to visit one of his platoon buddies… He was told that his friend has died, last summer, of cancer… u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eDisheartened, Rambo continues to walk the streets of Hope when he is annoyed by the local Sheriff (Brian Dennehy), and booked for vagrancy and resisting arrest… u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eBeaten, kicked all over, treated like trash, and pushed too far by the other cops in the Sheriffu0026#39;s office, Rambo is taking back to traumatic flashbacks, to the enduring torture in POW camp… Rambo, by that point, fights his way out and wages a one-man war against the police force that escalates out of control… Rambo is seen as a one man army overpowering all the sheriffu0026#39;s deputies and escaping into the surrounding woods… u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eu0026quot;First Bloodu0026quot; communicates the rage, the depression, the frustration and the psychological wounds of one Vietnam soldier that fought for his country and was then hassled by it upon his return… u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eBut what makes Rambo such a dangerous hero is Brian Dennehy being incredibly efficient as the cruel officer who doesnu0026#39;t like the looks of Stallone… Sure heu0026#39;s the abusive sheriff who is the victim of his environment, but heu0026#39;s also arrogant and incessantly underestimating a man who was u0026#39;the best, with guns, with knives, with his bare hands…u0026#39;u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eDennehy got a presence of his own pushing an u0026#39;expert in guerrilla warfareu0026#39; at the breaking point”
