"John Rambo" Gets Release Date

Lionsgate has announced that Sylvester Stallone’s "John Rambo" is now scheduled to hit theaters on January 25th, 2008. Even though I’m glad that the film will finally be released, it’s too bad that January is the month, since it’s a big hint that the studio doesn’t believe in its movie.

"John Rambo" takes place in Thailand, where a group of Christian aid workers recruit Rambo to guide them up the Salween River to deliver medical supplies to the Karen tribe of neighboring Burma. When the missionaries fail to return, Rambo is persuaded to take a group of mercenaries back into the war-torn border region to find them. What follows is a descent into hell on earth.
