For many people (myself included) Sylvester Stallone is most associated with one of two characters: either the heavy weight boxer Rocky Balboa, or one-man army John Rambo.

This is his third outing as that latter character, becoming involved in the Afghan war against brutal Soviet invaders when his old army Colonel is captured following an undercover mission.

Yes, this is the one that provides the plot relentlessly lampooned in Charlie Sheen's Hot Shots part Deux.

"An example of masterful storytelling that fascinated me growing up. I identified with Kim, the orphaned son of an Irish soldier, because we were both children of the army; my father was an army doctor who had served under Lord Mountbatten. On rereading, the setting of the Afghan Wars in the late Victorian era has chilling implications for today. The book is also a reminder that Kipling’s colonialist perspective didn’t blind him to the teeming human drama of India."
