….AND THE ITALIAN STALLION WINS AGAIN

Sylvester Stallone! How long will this guy rule the box office? Here is an action hero with a Midas touch. A natural for the macho role, he gave life to two phenomenal characters. One, a boxer who surpasses all obstacles to become a champion and the other the legendary John Rambo. Immortal roles that would remain etched in the annals of filmdom forever.

Popularly known as the ‘Italian Stallion’, his first big break came with the release of ‘Rocky’ in the mid 1970s. The film was nominated for ten academy awards. His excellent portrayal of the underdog in the film fetched him a lot of fame. This led to the sequel in the form of ‘Rocky 2’, a runaway hit.

Then came the action adventure ‘First Blood’ which lead him to the peaks of fame. Even his critics started to praise his performance. It did not stop there. More hits followed with ‘Rambo 2’ ‘Rambo 3’, ‘Rocky 3’, and many more.

Just when one felt that the Stallion’s rampage has come to a halt, ‘Rambo 4’ hits the screens worldwide like a lightning in the clear sky. Nothing has changed. Fans still throng the multiplexes to watch their favourite star. Rambo, John Rambo. The Stallion has won yet again.

Keep jogging Stallion.
