As is almost always the case I liked the book more than the movie. And if you’ve seen the movie 100 times like I have it’s still well worth the read. It’s a lot different in that in the book Rambo isn’t necessarily the innocent guy and the Sheriff isn’t necessarily the bad guy. You can see both good and bad in both characters and it’s really a wild ride. I loved it!
