I have seen the movie and your comments and I was wondering who is the good character and who is the bad one because this kind of movie must have one. Alfred Hitchcock believed that the good characters are not white and the bad ones are not black, everybody's Grey. But I think this is not the case. The most positive character in this movie is Sheriff Teasle and the bad one is the human society and army. John Rambo is the victim in this case, the innocent victim who became a menace to the same society who destroyed his spirit and now didn't want him back. This is why I think this is good movie who has something to say, who has a decent point of view in a domain which many productions debated. John Rambo can't be brought back to ordinary life so the sheriff does what he was told to do: eliminate any possible threats to his community. The hero's ending speech is useless because none of the people outside actually listens to what he has to say. He is doomed to remain an outcast.
