Somehow, I am not really feeling Syl's return as Rambo.

I'm perfectly fine with him reprising Rocky / Creed. There is steady character progression there, and it is far more perfectly sensible to see Rocky age and go through the different trials. But with Rambo, he is supposed to be a far more stereotypical character. Even the plotlines are supposed to be just more of the same different stuff. In this installment, he sets up his traps and stuff in his barn instead of in the US small town woods or Soviet POW camp. But honestly, I feel like Syl is out of Rambo's character now.

Maybe I just can't wrap my head around a bada$$ 70+ yrs old taking down a whole Mexican cartel...
