Blu-ray Review: First Blood - Page 2

Part of: The Wild Blu Yonder

The 22-minute documentary entitled Drawing First Blood provides a little repeat information from the commentary, but just about everyone who had a hand in the film gets to speak on the experience. Deleted scenes include the legendary alternate ending in which Rambo is killed. A Blu-ray exclusive is a fun pop-up trivia track, though the commentaries cover much of the same ground. The usual array of trailers marks the end of the disc.

Looking back now that the series has its (supposed) finale with Rambo, First Blood is even stronger. Its emotional ending, robust characters, and superbly paced action are unmatched by any of film in the series. It’s a different style of film, and a better one for it.
