Why The Flash Had Another Rough Year
Note: This is a mostly spoiler-free review of the fifth season of The Flash, which is now available to stream on Netflix. I’ll discuss basic character and plot details but save direct spoiler chatter for the end of the review.
For most of its life, The Flash has followed a fairly similar pattern to that of Arrow. The first two seasons set a high standard that the show has never really been able to match since. Like Arrow, Season 3 marked a significant drop-off in quality, while Season 4 really dove off a cliff. Were The Flash to continue following Arrow’s example, Season 5 would see the series rebound and recapture some of its lost glory. Sadly, this is where The Flash finally changed gears and stopped following Arrow’s example. Season 5 may not quite rank as the show’s worst to date, but at some point that’s an almost meaningless distinction.
Rambo: Last Blood Trailer Is As Brutal And Violent As You’d Expect
The first trailer for Rambo: Last Blood is here. The fifth movie in the long-running action series stars Sylvester Stallone as former soldier and mercenary John Rambo who is called back into his old life for one last mission.
The trailer doesn’t really give much about the story away, but it delivers everything that fans of the series will expect. Namely, Stallone shooting, stabbing, and blowing up lots of people, this time in Mexico, while his voiceover tells us that “death is coming” for his enemies. Check it out above.
Rambo: Last Blood hits theaters on September 20 and is directed by Adrian Grunberg, who previously made the Mel Gibson thriller Get the Gringo. The movie also stars Spanish star Paz Vega (Spanglish, The OA) as a reporter who teams up with Rambo to rescue her sister from a drug cartel.
The Rambo series kicked off in 1982 with First Blood and was followed by two sequels in 1985 and 1988. The most recent movie was 2008’s Rambo, which Stallone directed and made $113 million worldwide.
