Brief Synopsis:
A less serious retelling of John Rambo's story. Rambo himself is a narrator who tells us story of his life in Forrest Gump fashion - the main narrative is the story from "First Blood" while second and third movie (along with some more additional material) become flashbacks of his earlier adventures. Everything is tied with John's quest to find and face three mysterious bears colonel Trautman told him about. Or maybe he took it a little bit too literally? Sex, guns and Rock'n'Roll along the way, not exactly John Rambo you were familiar with.
Intention:
To have a fun, alternative way to watch one of my favourite movie series and to see what can be done using AI that creates fake voice.

Cuts and Additions:
- primary storyline of the edit is "First Blood" plot
- added flashback showing Rambo's life before the events depicted in original films
- Rambo II and III are compressed to the form of flashbacks tied to the main plotline.
- some additional scenes were created using footage from various movies mixed with Rambo movies footage.
- opening credits were remade to include some of actors that originally did not appear in "First Blood", title card also changed.
- Rambo voiceover created through AI has been applied to the whole film, he is commenting events depicted in the edit Forrest Gump style.
- there was no excessive re-scoring ( source files are not re-scoring friendly) so it is still mostly Goldsmith music, but some songs and music were added to newly created scenes and to scenes which had originally no music at all. Some little re-building SFX in few instances.
- some deleted material from First Blood and Rambo III from Ultimate Blu-ray edition has been included
- most of the scenes from First Blood that don't include Rambo himself have been cut. The story is now shown mostly from his point of view but there are still some exceptions from that (but we never leave Rambo for more than seconds).
- the mine sequence has been shortened (no rats)
- blowing up gun store was cut and replaced with new sequence
- grindhouse effects of varying severity added thoughout the movie
- be warned that this edit includes high amount of swearing as well as nudity and sex scenes not present in original Rambo movies.

I didn't ask Geiferg for the edit.
I'd recently watched First blood and 2 but saw this over on The Fanedit Network on reddit and decided to give it a watch regardless. So I figure the least I could do is still review it over here on IFDB like I would do if I had asked.
Where to begin, the trailers were a wild ride, I'd love to see those movies, but not sure they can be given a true movie treatment, regardless they set the tone for what was going to be coming with Rambo.
I don't want to spoil things, chances are you read the description on the release information tab and that is pretty much what's on offer, a one man killing machine with a healthly amount of T&A, guns, digitized squibs, it feels like a love letter to stallones career as a whole, even the less hollywood side. I was impressed by not only the use of Hot shots to make the Colonel seem more in tone for the grindhouse, but to serve up another conquest for Rambo.
The only drawbacks are the autoread AI script is a little iffy and some of the early deepfake shots aren't so good, but at the same time, I'm impressed this is the work of one person so can easily dismiss these faults. It's just a madcap 1980's style yayo-fuelled execs dream and easily up there with the best grindhouse edits like War of the Stars.
Give it a look in, chances are you won't be disappointed.

I grew up with the steroid Rambo from part III - and as a kid I was a little disappointed when I finally saw "First Blood".
That was corrected today - because this is the Rambo we all deserve.
I love the over-the-top narration and laughed out loud several times.
Overall, a brilliant done edit that you can see the tremendous effort that went into making. Gieferg created a completely new script and with it a new viewing experience. I love the comedy and (sometimes) naughty jokes written for the dialogue script for the voice over.
I noticed two effects (we're talking seconds here) of the film that I realized were manipulated but didn't bother me. Gieferg explained to me that these were done with overlay material.
Probably one of the best fan edits I've seen. Highly recommended, and I dare to say I like this version better than the original. It was a blast and a lot of fun.
Looking forward to seeing more of Gieferg's edits!

Gieferg continues to be one of the (if not THE) most ambitious fan-editor around, and this one is a shining example. What a stroke of genius to use footage from Hot Shots II as the basis for creating the ultimate Rambo spoof/tribute movie. My only criticism is a technical one, that the mechanical auto-Stallone voiceover used here isn't quite up to par with Gieferg's hilarious newly written narration. I laughed plenty, but if somehow some more emotion could have been injected into the lines (a human impersonator?), it would have bumped the whole affair up another level. (Not to say Stallone isn't pretty close to robotic already, but Gieferg's writing here deserves the best.)
That small quibble aside, this one is an edit for all-time, my description can't do the insanity of it justice, just watch it, enjoy the ride and don't be surprised if you find you have somehow grown a sweet mullet by the time the final bear has been put down.

One of the most fun fanedits out there! Brilliant mash-up of different films for an absolute grindhouse blast. This new narrative offers is everything I like about this medium, it's raw, deliciously salacious and fun as hell, terrific job!
