The mother of all sequels!

Episode 15 - 1982 was a sleeper year for cinema with some of the most groundbreaking and genre-defining films being released. Sylvester Stallone stars in FIRST BLOOD, the action film that not only broke the mould but with its 2 sequels that were also released in the 80s went a long way to establishing the 80s as the decade of the action film. 
There is no doubt that John J Rambo is one of two life-changing roles that created the superstar that is Sylvester Stallone. Some actors work a whole career to find one iconic character to embody and Sly had two and played them simultaneously for the next 37 years. 
The Born to Watch team put their spin on this classic movie and surprised even themselves with some of the revelations they came to. FIRST BLOOD is a gripping action thriller that doesn't stop for its whole 97 minutes of running time. An out-and-out blockbuster upon release, it would go on to take over $100 million dollars and spawn 4 sequels, but it's this movie that stands the test of time and is the benchmark for the franchise. Starring Sylvester Stallone as John Rambo, a Vietnam War veteran. The movie was directed by Ted Kotcheff and is based on the novel written by David Morrell, it also stars Richard Crenna (Trautman) and Brian Dennehy (Teasle).

First Blood is an excellent movie that highlights the struggles of veterans returning from war. Rambo is a sympathetic character who is simply trying to survive but is forced to fight back when pushed too far. 
This was a fun episode for the team as they attack an old favourite of theirs. Whitey belts out the Kick Arse Credit Song that could set a new benchmark, Film School tackles Montages and Gow just keeps bringing the heat with his stats.
