Objective Rating:
It is crazy, having grown up in the early 90's and late 80's (and thinking Sylvester Stallone was just a big guy who can't talk, that sh** like Rambo III or Demolition Man were representative of his contribution to cinema), to be discovering now that all that time he was secretly an extremely competent filmmaker.
