It’s lighter, the action is energetic, and the cheese adds to the experience.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Aug 24, 2022

Rambo III is not a movie. It is a trading company… such a monotonous rumble was putting me to sleep. [Full review in Spanish]

If critics were to rate a film based on how sensational the main antagonist's death is, along with the main henchman, then this film would rank quite high indeed.

| Original Score: 7/10 | Sep 7, 2020

Its only value is commercial. As such, the only feeling that it produces is sadness. [Full Review in Spanish]

| Mar 30, 2020

Graphic war violence in bombastic, cliched sequel.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Sep 26, 2019

Somehow manages to be even more silly than its immediate predecessor.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Sep 22, 2019

By this time Stallone had become so thoroughly established in the role that he really does manage a lot of the heavy lifting (literally and metaphorically) all by himself.

| Sep 5, 2019

It's one for the completists, or maybe one for those curious as to how ludicrous the '80s action landscape eventually became.

| Original Score: 4/10 | Nov 19, 2018

'Rambo III' should make a fortune because Stallone delivers with a vengeance.

| Jan 4, 2018

Mostly, Rambo III is one breathtaking sequence after another, with an absolutely mind-boggling scene with Rambo removing a spike from his side, and then sealing the wound with flaming gunpowder.

| Oct 9, 2016

Engages the plight of the Mujahideen with a humanizing, doc-like approach (fascinating to witness, all these years later, when the ally/enemy tables have turned so drastically).

Full Review | Jun 14, 2008

...an entertaining, sporadically electrifying piece of work that makes up in thrills what it lacks in relevance.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jan 24, 2008

Strays slightly from the formula and therefore loses some of its mindless fun credentials.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 14, 2008

A mindless and uninspired effort.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Jan 14, 2008

Always at ground zero in the chaos is Rambo -- gloriously, inhumanly impervious to fear and danger -- whose character is inhabited by Stallone with messianic intensity.

| Jan 14, 2008

It's a very bad film, but now has an interesting element when viewed in retrospect -- Rambo goes to Afghanistan to fight with the Mujaheddin against the Soviets.

Saturday Morning Picture Club stuff, only dearer.

| Jun 24, 2006

Real-life events have rendered this third Rambo adventure the most dated of the series. Still, though, it remains an exciting piece of hardcore action.
