Stallone Loves Rambow
"When I first heard about Son of Rambow, I assumed it was going to be a very broad and stylized joke-a-minute comedy at Rambo's expense," Sylvester Stallone has told L.A. Times guy Mark Olsen. But the aging action star "took a look at the playfully rambunctious tale of two boys in 1980s small-town England," Olsen says, "and liked what he saw." Stallone explains that "the fact that it was so heartwarming is the result of brilliant filmmaking by its creators." Wait...are the last three words in that sentence necessary?

My buddy over at Paramount is getting me into a screening for this; sounds/looks like a cute, clever little flick.

We get it: Stallone's command of the English language is unimpressive.
Go Son of Rainbow! Really hope this does well.

If he's being quoted from casual conversation, you can't expect the guy to be impeccably precise all the time. He didn't write the article.

I saw this at the Toronto Film Fest...can't tell you how much I HATED IT!!! There were 1200 people in the Ryerson Theatre and at least 1100 must have worked for Paramount Vantage...or Torontonians really are the polite ones of the world. How else to account for the most inane and uncreative sight gags getting such howls of laughter...and I noticed that most of the people around me were not laughing...guess they weren't going to the Vantage party later, either.
I recommend you pass - besides, it's always a bad sign at a film fest when the PRODUCER insists on speaking to the audience for the intros before the DIRECTOR who's standing around like hired help, waiting for his turn. One of the most "corporate" of "indies" I've had the displeasure of sitting through in a long time...

I don't think it was the second coming of comedies or anything, but I did think it was fun, if slight. And I liked the kids.

"I could start a war in 30 seconds. But some countries spend 100 years trying to find peace. Just like good manners, peace has to be learned."

Those words are necessary. He's saying "brilliant filmmaking" on the part of the people who made Son of Rambow, as opposed to brilliant filmmaking by the people who made Rambo/First Blood, which is what the characters are re-making in the movie.
