  • Weak Link includes Rambo surviving situations where the enemies could simply kill him, his lack of bullet wounds and the awkward scheme to force a misleading radio message. — Bill Simmons
  • The ending is another Weak Link: Murdock receives too little punishment, Erickson needs a real fight with Rambo, and the helicopter fight with the large Russian should be stronger. Lethal Weapon and Road House are offered as fight models, followed by Karate Kid crossover jokes. — Kyle Brandt
