'Rambo 5' takes Sylvester Stallone to the Wild West
What's the story
'Rambo 5' is the latest addition in the franchise, which follows the story of the war veteran, John Rambo played by Sylvester Stallone. The films have seen him in several tough spots, including Burma, Afghanistan, and Vietnam. However, the latest addition seems to place Rambo in a western setting, where he has traded his military fatigues for a cowboy's outfit. Read about it here.
New look
Every cowboy sings a sad sad song
The movie will definitely see Stallone put on his cowboy boots. The actor took to Instagram to post a picture with the hashtag #Rambo5. The picture shows him wearing a cowboy hat and riding a horse. The dedicated and talented soldier, who braved deadly situations for his country, seems far removed from troubles as he dotingly rides a horse in his old age.
Homecoming
What others call hell, Rambo calls home
While some fans might be confused about the current film's setting, one needs to remember the last Rambo film. All the violence eventually got to the veteran. After witnessing the atrocities in Burma, the movie ended, showing Rambo return to his family farm in Arizona. We expect the latest movie to pick up the story from there and knowing Rambo, we expect trouble.
