First Blood
Screw Rocky & Copland. First Blood is Stallone's best movie. John Rambo is such an awesome character that I used it as my Halloween costume 2 years ago.
Anyways, this movie is a solid action film. Fast paced and well acted (largely in part because Rambo is a man of very few words). Not too much gore but plenty of fighting and shooting violence.

Walk the Line
I dont know... Maybe I heard too many good things about it before I saw it but I dont see what all the fuss was about and I happen to be a big Johnny Cash fan. It was fine I suppose, but nothing spectacular and certainly not something I would have considered an Oscar worthy film. On that same note, I thought Reese Witherspoon was good, but again, not spectacular or reward worthy as June Carter.
I was let down, but it wasnt terrible. It just isnt as great as everyone says.
