RIP Margaret Thatcher: 10 Right-Wing Films She Probably Loved

9. Rambo: First Blood Part II (1982)

00290 Thatcher was no big fan of communists. Here, the titular character combats those commies in 'Nam. Rocky Rambo is doing hard time after being convicted of his crimes in the almost completely bloodless predecessor First Blood. Here, his resourcefulness to get his job done no matter what kicks in as he goes through the Vietnamese jungle with his bow and arrow, hijacks a helicopter, and destroys a gunboat with a rocket launcher. The best part? Discretion. When Rambo calls for an extraction, he is promptly denied in case word gets out. I'm sure every conservative got an erection from that clip.
