Rambo first appeared on the big screen in first blood which is one of my all time favorite movies. In this Rambo acts more like John Matrix from Commando. i just watched the first episode and honestly the 60's batman was more mature and dark than this piece of garbage. Rambo does have his signature m60e3 in episode 1 but he doesn't even use it. the animation is hideous even for the 80's teenage mutant ninja turtles was released the next year and this doesn't even compare. the show is based more around first blood part 2 even though they changed Yushin and Podovsky's names and every character (even Rambo) is an idiot. Trautman is more of a 1966 commissioner gordon character, he's only there to call Rambo for aid and the whole ptsd aspect of the hero is completely ignored. Rambo isn't a tragic hero who is suffering from the nightmares the Vietnam War left him but he instead cracks one liners like Arnold Schwarzenegger. if you like Rambo do yourself a favor and skip this dumb show. If the villains were smart rambo would have died in episode one. if you stil aren't convinced then there is one episode where Rambo, a vietnam veteran who is suffering from PTSD and is capable of taking on an entire army, dresses up like santa claus. I'm not even joking this show is the biggest insult to fans of John Rambo ever.

(Specialist-Administrators of Vengeance, Anarchy and Global Extortion) all over the globe. Sylvester Stallone or not Rambo is back in this old 1986 TV show called Rambo: The Force Of Freedom works both as nostalgia but also as a kid's TV show it's fun, it has a lot of action and a badass intro and although the R-Rated is long gone it still works perfectly it captures the heart of John Rambo but at the same time it expands on it with some Action Man/G.I Joe kind of action and if you ask me i love both this and the Robocop cartoon just because there's no violence that doesn't mean that the show sucked this 2 alone are far better than half of those cartoons that your kids see on TV and it's a fact.

The most impressive feature about the Rambo cartoon is the sheer loyalty towards existing and historic military hardware such as the Lockheed AC-130 Spectre gunship and the Battleship Yamamoto which are shown in full force. Its also surprising to see that the aircraft which made extensive appearances such as the OV-10 Bronco and Avro HS-748, although not mentioned by name, are reproduced with great authenticity. In the series, they come up with some innovative military designs.Story lines were decent and the action, although far from realistic and the explosions far from impactive, were at the least, quite intensive. The animation was standard Ruby Spears quality. The only thing is that while 10000s of bullets were fired, no one actually got killed or even hurt.I really don't know why morons like Jtalledo call this a GI Joe clone? There is really very little in common with GI Joe and this one was at least a little bit more mature. People like the mentioned who lampoon themselves cluelessly should really not waste our time here by talking garbage.
... View MoreI love this cartoon a lot! I watch my favorite tv show every weekend in my area. Rambo is the bomb, because he kicks bad guys butt. It is a good tat it's on Bohbot Kids Network. I wish I can beat up the S.A.V.A.G.E.s just like Rambo. Well I guess should be going, bye y'all.
