10 Hyped 2019 Movies That Disappointed Everyone

10. Rambo: Last Blood

For the first time in over ten years, 2019 saw Sylvester Stallone once again suit up to portray John Rambo. The fifth, and based on the title, what seems to be the final entry in the franchise that started in 1982, should have been a fitting end to a legendary character. Instead, Last Blood simply limped over the finish line.

There is nothing particularly memorable about the movie. From the supporting characters, to the boring villains and the basic plot, Rambo's should-be last dance left a lot to be desired.

Stallone's other long running, classic character driven franchise was given a shot in the arm from 2016's Creed, which has allowed it to enjoy a few more years of relevance. Rambo, however, returned from its 11 year hiatus with just another generic action movie.

It raises the question: what was the point in bringing the character back for something like this? It wasn't anything different to what we've seen before, and it wasn't a final flourish for a character and franchise whose best days are firmly in the past.
