Laguna de Coyuca: Filming site of “Rambo 2”


Challenging your Sylvester Stallone perceptions since 1983. Here I am on site where “Rambo 2” was filmed. Surprise! It’s Mexico, not Vietnam. Fisherman and boating extraordinaire Jesús Carlón tells me of the two weeks that he took Sylvester Stallone and crew around this beautiful freshwater lagoon, full of mangroves, shrimp, migratory birds and the odd crocodile or two. Maybe Sly can come back to Acapulco and make a movie about Rambo’s happily ever after retirement in this chillaxed Mexican fishing village? 🤓
