RAMBO: LAST BLOOD (2019. 1/2 Sylvester Stallone, Paz Vega, Yvette Monreal, Sheila Shah, Oscar Jaenada, Joaquin Cosio, Sergio Peris-Mencheta, Adriana Barraza. John Rambo returns with vengeance in store for the Mexican cartel that has kidnapped his beloved niece (Monreal) for their sordid prostitution ring. Stallone manages to remain low-key until the final, bloody and brutal act of justifiable homicides and while his screenplay with Matthew Cirulnik and Dan Gordon rely on the sympathies of a broken avenger and the tight direction by Adrian Grunberg there still feels like something is missing in spite of the overhanded 'family matters' subtext thru out.
