* SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments: The end of the movie has Rambo at long last going home, 30+ years after the end of the war that took him away from it, and looking behind him at the long road he's finally finished walking. Part of ''Film/RamboLastBlood'''s [[BrokenBase polarized]] [[ContestedSequel reception]] from fans was because it [[HappyEndingOverride undid]] what seemed to be such long overdue and [[EarnYourHappyEnding well-earned happy ending]] for Rambo.

Ensemble Dark Horse is about side characters, the Big Bad isn't a side character


* EnsembleDarkhorse:
** Major Tint is this despite being the BigBad. His name is never spoken onscreen and he has next to no meaningful interaction with the main characters, but he is far and away the most memorable part of the film.
** On the heroes' side, we have FriendlySniper Schoolboy, a genuinely NiceGuy who exemplifies GoodIsNotSoft and gets a BigDamnHeroes moment where he saves Rambo and Sarah with his ImprobableAimingSkills.

* UnintentionalPeriodPiece: The film was starting to look like this post-2010 when Myanmar finally took tentative steps towards political freedom...[[SubvertedTrope but then the government was]] [[HereWeGoAgain accused by numerous humanitarian organizations of]] [[http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-38362275 committing similar war crimes and ethnic cleansing against the Rohingya people]] in late 2016. And now, with the 2021 Myanmar coup d'etat and its increasingly bloody aftermath, the situation in the country has come full circle. Sadly, this is an example of a film premise that everyone ''wishes'' would become dated and obsolete, including those who [[Creator/SylvesterStallone filmed and produced it.]]
