Rambo: The Complete Collector's Set [Blu-ray] Reviews By Customers

Continuing, Rambo & Co Bao get to this Vietnamese military camp they save 1 of the POW's Rambo & Co Bao split Rambo & the POW go to the LZ they come under gunfire by Vietnamese troops Murdock tells them to abort leaving Rambo & the POW to be captured. So Rambo is getting tortured then some Soviet military guys show up Rambo has the bad @** line Murdock I'm coming to get you! Co Bao posing as a prostitute helps Rambo escape later on she asks him will you take me to America & he will. But she is killed by a Vietnamese soldier Rambo is mad as h**l he tears through Vietnamesse & Soviet military @** rewrites history & wins the Vietnam war. the endin is great "There's POW's find them or I'll find you!" That speech at the end he sells it. Richard Crenna has strong dialogue like before Charles Naiper plays the slime ball well. Now I know I'll get an idiotic comments it's unrealistic I know but you have to escape realism but if you don't like it go watch your pretty boy who thinks he can shoot Matt Damon.

Not nearly "COMPLETE"..... - Brandon - TN
I love the Rambo movies but I have to address something about this new so called "Complete" set coming out on July 27. This new Rambo - The Complete Collector's Set on Blu-ray Disc appears to just be the 4 movies that are out now on blu-ray put into one package. You can actually go ahead and buy the four movies on blu-ray and get everything that is included in this set only in single cases instead of waiting for this green box or 4 disc case or whatever it is exactly. I really doubt it will be a metal tin case like the Complete Collector's Set that came out on DVD a few years back.

Also to be labeled as "Complete" there are a few very obvious things missing.

First off, the biggest and most obvious omission is the new Rambo - Extended Cut that is being released on Blu-ray on its own the exact same day as this set. That's right, a whole new version of the fourth movie with 90 minutes of new extra features and it's being left out. Why it was not included in this "Complete" set makes absolutely no sense to me at all.

The second big omission is a bonus disc including all of the extra features and documentaries that were available on a bonus disc first in the Special Edition Trilogy set and then the DVD version of the Complete Collector's Set a couple of years ago. There are nearly 2 hours of documentaries and featurettes about the original 3 movies that are not on the blu-ray discs out now. Wouldn't this have been a perfect opportunity to press a new bonus blu-ray disc with all these features and include it with this set?

The third thing missing from this set and, although not nearly as important as the first two, should still have been included is the deleted scenes from Rambo III. For some reason Lionsgate left them off of the Rambo III blu-ray. Since the July 27 Complete Collector's set appears to just have the same blu-ray of Rambo III out now don't look for it to have those deleted scenes.

Now back to that bonus disc I was talking about above; That's why a new bonus disc needs to be made so it can include them. The one made for the DVD set a few years back won't work as those scenes are not on it either so you can't just throw it in with this set. Not to mention the Teaser Trailers for the original 3 movies from the Special Editions and two featurettes "First Blood: A Look Back" and "Rambo III: Full Circle" found on the Special Edition Trilogy bonus disc but not on the DVD version of the Complete Collector's Set bonus disc. They may just be a montage of clips from the movies set to music but since Lionsgate owns them how hard would it be to include them as well?

DOUBLE DIP - razrodude -
This is bs. I just bought the 'complete' Rambo collection a couple of months ago and it was just parts 1, 2, and 3. Now, after I buy it, of course they decide to release another collectors set including the 4th movie. I should have seen it coming, but why did it take so dang long for them to release it?
