I have followed Sylvester Stallone’s movie career for many years now. You’re disappointed that movie critics are ripping apart “Rambo: Last Blood”? You see, this is nothing new. Movie critics has been bashing Sly’s movies for a few decades now. I remember they bashed movies like Rambo II and III… they’ve also bashed “Cliffhanger”, “The Specialist”, “Assassins”, “Cobra”, “Judge Dredd”, “Demolition Man”, “Driven”, etc.
Yeah, I am a huge Sly fan but that doesn’t mean that every movie he did was really good. I’ll admit that he made some pretty big stinkers and even Sly himself admits he didn’t like some of his own movies that he starred in most notably movies like “Stop or My Mom Will Shoot” and “Rocky V”. Sly also hated the second “Escape Plan” movie. He’s not afraid to be honest with his own movies.
I never understood why Sly has to be an easy target by movie critics and some movie fans. What is it about the guy they hate so much? Is it because of his look/image? They don’t like the way his eyes and lips are? They don’t like the way he talks and they think he’s a bad actor ’cause of it? Sly’s talent has always been bashed for years and as you can see, it still goes on.
That’s okay ’cause no matter what you think of the man… love him or hate him, he is a Hollywood Icon and legend. He also has a very HUGE following of loyal fans all over the world. That’s a big part of why he started his own clothing line… https://slystalloneshop.com/?gclid=Cj0KCQjwt5zsBRD8ARIsAJfI4BiHVX2i-TSE3JoXcsXX9-M9X40eH99ihNgeyFr0emCOe4j1i_LZvocaApR9EALw_wcB
… Sly’s online clothing store is just his way of giving back to the fans for supporting his career over the years. It isn’t about the money at all when it comes to Sly’s online store. I only own one-shirt from that store which is the Rocky tank but I plan on ordering more stuff from Sly’s store soon.
Even though Sly keeps getting mixed reviews to all of his movies, I just respect the hell out of him for keeping on going in his career. The man really loves making movies and you can tell he does. I think it’s pretty clear that he does make movies for the fans. He’s pretty good with his fanbase.
A lot of people wanna bash Sly’s acting and make fun of him for his old age but Arnold’s not the greatest actor in the world and he’s a 70 year old guy too but you don’t see anybody criticizing Arnold. It’s always Sly who is the easy target.
Yeah, there are movies where Sly can really show his true acting talent… I always knew he was a good actor… I just wish people would give him a chance. In my opinion, I think he delivered the best performances in the first “Rocky”, “Cop Land” and the first “Creed” movie.
The Sly bashing is getting old and tiresome but I will always support the man. Yes, people make fun of me for being such a Stallone fanatic but I don’t care.
I think some people hate Sly ’cause he’s a good guy. He really is… yet most movie fans are supporting leftist assholes like Robert Deniro, Sean Penn, Alec Baldwin and George Clooney. Sly has always been an “apolitical” guy and he continues to stay that way… maybe that’s another reason they hate him. Most celebrities are horrible but Sly is cool, though. There’s only very few good celebrities in Hollywood left and Sly is one of them.
I have no problem of the way Sly’s eyes are, his lips and his speaking voice. I like the way he speaks and Sly is a very intelligent and honest man, though. He’s also very funny and has a good sense of humor too. There’s no ego in this man at all as he is a very humble guy and doesn’t take himself so serious. What’s wrong with that?
Sly rules. I respect the man so much and I hope to meet him in person someday still. On my bucket list!
