Rambo First Blood Part II (1985). Rambo returns to the jungles of Vietnam on a mission to infiltrate an enemy base-camp and rescue the American POWs still held captive there.
This is genuinely pretty wild in terms of its sheer relentlessness - relentless action, relentless machismo, relentless jingoism. The character angle of the first one is gone, and instead it's just sort of really loud. Still, the stunts are pretty impressive, and the action sequences genuinely look good. A total 80s time capsule, for better and for worse. 4/10.

Theatrical trailer
On the dark and forbidding ocean floor, the crew of a deep-sea mining rig discovers a sunken freighter that harbors a deadly secret: a genetic experiment gone horribly wrong. With a storm raging on the surface and no hope of rescue, the captain (Peter Weller) and his team are propelled into a spine-tingling battle for survival against the ultimate foe—a hideous monster that cannot die... and lives to kill.
Pre-order Leviathan.
