Stallone talks about it a bit:

Holy shit. I actually liked this film.
The plot is very simple and tight with only a few holes in the plot. One is sort of glaring towards the end, but it's easily ignored as the film is entertaining.
I should warn that it's not for the squeamish. They ratchet up the gore factor by about 1000.
And the brutality...one scene in particular gave me flashbacks of Caligula.
Imagine an episode of the A-Team except instead of nobody hitting anything, everyone does and they're using exploding bullets.

There's only three scenes in that flick that really stand out as shining examples of high violence.

Any Blu Ray review loses half a star when you can't skip the previews.
Goddammit.
Also good transfer, though I wonder about the audio options... I have a 5.1 speaker system, but the only audio options were 7.1 in English, or 5.1 in French. I wonder if I lost some of my audio watching 7.1 on a 5.1 system.

Watching ripped movies is so much better of an experience than those forced-watched thingys

I want the a/v quality of a dedicated bluray player, with HDMI cable, but with movies stored on a hard drive and accessible through a winamp-style media library.
Is anyone doing that, yet?
Oh, I should add that the Rambo BD came with a second disk that was a digital version of the movie for use on an iTunes or whatever.
