    Stallone is a joke. A truly awful actor. Poor Sylvester, he must be desperate in his old age.

    Is he making a late come back or what? I doubt Rambo 5 will do as good as his last Rambo film. With the last one people were ready for a new Rambo. They'll be lucky to make half of what the last film made.
