Trivia

A violent movie?

This film has a reputation of being overly violent. However, the total body count of the movie is one: Galt falling from the helicopter. All others survive, even Teasle.

8 years

After the movie, Rambo is tried and sentenced to 8 years in a labor camp prison.

Always wear your seat belt

It's Galt's own fault that he gets killed. If Galt had obeyed Teasle's order to spot Rambo and to capture him alive, and if he had worn a safety belt, he wouldn't have gotten himself killed.
