Rambo: First Blood

Sylvester Stallone co-writes and stars in this 1980s action feature. Disturbed Vietnam veteran John Rambo (Stallone) spends his days wandering from town to town, searching out his old service colleagues. When he resists a local sheriff's attempts to make him leave town, he is arrested for vagrancy.

While in prison Rambo is forced to endure the abuse of a sadistic deputy and relive his traumatic experiences as a POW in Vietnam, until he escapes and takes to the woods, relying on his old army skills to survive an escalating manhunt that erupts into all-out war.
