In the most random and scattered way. The torture scene is more flashbacks and confusion than anything else. It's really not that fantastic. Bad? Not at all. Thrilling? Not at all.
Random and scattered?

Should a movie be like this - opening credits roll, Rambo walks in holding a minigun against an army, keeps blasting away for 90 minutes, a shot of the carnage he did, and end credits roll?

Every good story needs a decent buildup - in case of Rambo, it was exceptional and horrific at the same time, if you related to the true-life crimes showed as glimpses in the first 20-25 odd-minutes.

Empathy is one of the most-redeeming qualities of a movie lover, my friend.;)
