Fresh from breathing new life into Rocky in the Creed movies, Sylvester Stallone (73 this year) brings his other ’80s icon out of creaking retirement for this fifth instalment in the Rambo series. As such, the film does exactly what Rambo fans will be expecting, but that isn’t saying very much.
Rambo: Last Blood picks up more or less where 2008′s Rambo (titling is decidedly not this franchise’s strong suit) left off, with Ptsd-afflicted former Vietnam vet John Rambo (Stallone) now happily retired to a horse ranch in Arizona, where he lives with his Mexican housekeeper Maria (Adriana Barraza) and his teenage niece Gabrielle (Yvette Monreal). However, when Gabrielle gets sold into sex slavery while...

Home has always been an abstract concept for John Rambo, which is what the last scene of 2008’s otherwise expendable “Rambo” sequel finally gave the iconic Sylvester Stallone character: a moment when this unsettled Vietnam War survivor, looking very much the worse for wear, lumbers up to a mailbox bearing the character’s surname. At last, somewhere in Arizona, this dutybound embodiment of American military might had found his way back to the family ranch.
Such closure was in nearly every way antithetical to the spirit of “First Blood” — that is, the Ptsd-fueled franchise’s inaugural movie and the eponymous David Morrell novel that inspired it, both of which traded on the notion that a good man who’d gotten a taste of killing had serious difficulty turning off that deadly skill set upon his return. As a result, a sum total of zero viewers saw that ending as a...

“El Chapo” Season 2 kicks off with a prison break that leads to unexpected allies, as seen in the trailer for the Univision drama series. The show that stars Marco de la O as the Mexican drug lord begins its second season with his first escape from incarceration. The new batch of episodes, premiering Sept. 17, will show how Chapo became the leader of the powerful criminal organization Sinaloa Cartel, with corrupt government officials aiding his rise. “The war against Narco trafficking is going to be a total success,” Chapo says ominously in the trailer.
