Stallone-First Blood Special Edition DVD Review

[Mark Heide]

Since John Cole now watches some of the movies everyone likes, I'd like to hear his opinion and others on this movie. But, settle for my opinion first.

I think this is the best Stallone movie made. The special edition presents the movie in its original 2.35:1 aspect ratio. This is a major improvement from the VHS and TV broadcast versions. The DVD includes the documentary Drawing FIrst Blood: Creating John Rambo. For fans of this movie it was interesting to find out that Kirk Douglas was originally cast for John Rambo.

Anyway, it is a movie that keeps you on the edge of your seat. It's an action and survival movie. Highly recommended in the new DVD format.

Good Luck

Mark
