Sylvester Stallone really is an All-In-One Packed Action Star! Looking forward to his next movie.

rocky balboa is not the best one of all the rocky movies but it was a gr8 ending for rocky and stallone. i like how milo ventimeglia play his son in rocky balboa coz if ya notice he’s got tha same lip, it droops to tha same side. i laffed wen i noticed that. i like how the film is named. i dnt think it should’ve been called ‘punchers chance’ coz it’s not entirely a rocky movie, although it is appropriate

Oh one more thing, i went to see the new rocky as soon as it came out. I was really excited, and i admit i enjoyed it, although i had a few tears at the beginning when rocky was at adrians grave. i think it was a big let down to the movie that talia shire didnt star in it. But the film had a good storyline to it. ive herd many people and read many comments saing slyvester was stupid bringing back rocky to the screens, but thats only because they arnt TRUE fans. i think it was amazing and slyvester is the best actor i have ever seen. all of the rockys are by far the best set of films made. in fact, im watching rocky 3 right now ”oh no no no he aint gettin killed hes gettin mad”
SLYVESTER YOUR A LEGAND AND YOU WILL ALWAYS BE MY FAVOURITE ACTOR.

rocky 1 2 3 4 5 are the best films i have ever seen. 4 is by far the best, however each movie has its own special quality. slyvester im in love with u, even though im 15 im so inspired by you. And my goal i want to achieve before i die, is having the honour to meet you. x

I just got back from watching it and all I can say is “woah”.. It’s been a while since I left the movie house feeling like this. I thought it was a good movie, and I have to agree with the author, that its a great movie about Rocky and that its a good way to close the franchise.

I haven’t seen Rocky Balboa yet as it isn’t release in the UK until the 19 Jan. From all the reviews I’ve read though I’m really looking forward to it. A sixth film was desperately needed – Sly couldn’t leave the Rocky franchise dangling on the fraying piece of thread otherwise known as Rocky V.

I’ve read a lot of comments from various people regarding the disbelief that a old boxer could come out of retirement and mix it up with a younger champion. I’d like to point out that in 1994, George Foreman came out of retirement at age 45 and defeated Michael Moorer. If you look at photos of George at the time, he was not exactly fighting fit! And I can guarantee that if Muhammed Ali didn’t suffer from Parkinson’s disease he’d still be able to knock out half of the current heavyweight contenders! A champion always has that something extra that made them a champion in the first place. That’s why I find Rocky fighting as a 54/58 year old entirely believable.

Anyway, that’s about all I have to say. After all, I haven’t seen the movie yet so can’t really say much more!

Great review! I saw this flick 6 times already! It’s inspiring and refreshing to see Rocky once again. The ending, was filmed very original. (not giving it away for those who haven’t seen it.) I’m a huge fan of the series, and quite honestly, each movie had it’s good and bad moments…

R1) Always the timeless classic (2nd pick)
R2) Just as good! Particularly the fight scene
(More detailed than the first one; a plus! Also
you see what belt was used as a title. 1st pick)
R3) Pre-popcorn fluff (4th pick)
R4) Love the soundtrack & training. Popcorn flick/mush
Hate it cause of anybody who can claim this one as the
best one for the franchise. The character is lost within
the style and times of the 80′s. (5th pick)
R5) Hate the soundtrack! And very depressing. (6th pick)
R6) 3rd pick

I liked the review and was able to get past the minor error in details- Marie was not an “old friend,” the fight was not for charity- a small portion was going to be donated, but the point of it was the big payday for the Champ, and The Champ was hardly the “bad Guy,” the movie didn’t have one. Maybe his handlers. The Champ was a believable kid in his position.
I would also have added the importance of the way this movie connected with the spirit of the first Rocky.
If there really were people who went to this movie “to see Rocky beat on people for an hour and a half” Id have to ask what planet they were on. Essentially none of the movies were like that, especially the one where he’s 60. The movie was exactly as I expected, and I thought it was excellent.
I would rank it second behind the original, and before another good sequel, #III. (I loved the self-doubt angle, very believable). I can’t belie you liked IV, that one was awful, especially the ridiculous speech at the end.

As a female, I grew up dating guys who’d lift weights to Eye of the Tiger theme land have a copy of Rocky movies. I managed to bypass watching any of the Rocky movies …only catching a few famous scenes like running up the steps in Philly….until this year. I’m 28 and I bought the Rocky collection for my husband for an anniversary present. I was going to actually sit down and watch 1 through 5 and then go see the sixth with him. Dreading all of it. I barely made it through the first one. I liked the portrayal of Rocky as a caring person (girly, I know). Well knowing I’d never get through 2-5 before the movie left the theatre, my husband gave me a 5-minute summary of the other movies. I had heard good and bad things about the 6th movie. We saw it tonight and I loved it. Most of Rocky’s flashbacks were from the original movie. The movie showed a more human side of Rocky, Paulie, his son and even brought back the young teenage girl he walks home in the first one. I loved it and I’ve been a Rocky avoider all this time. I think the people that gave the movie a bad review are all the testosterone meatheads that just like to see all the fight scenes.

My brother joked, this film will encourage Mike Tyson to start training really hard and get the Heavyweight Championship back once more before he’s 60.

Ha ha, can you image?

Hey,

I have been cruising the reviews of Rocky Balboa before and after I saw the movie on Friday. Having grown-up about half an hour outside of Philadelphia, the Rocky franchise had a huge influence on my childhood. After all, we are the city that “immortalized” a ficticious character with a statue.

Anyway, I was glad to see your review. I think it is the most accurate one of all the reviews I have read on the internet yet (and believe me, I’ve read many). You understood the movie for what it was. Rocky Balboa was what the movie indicated: a character piece about an aging Rocky Balboa. If you grew up with the character and appreciated the original movies for the character, then you should thoroughly enjoy the movie.

As an aside, I found a 58 year-old Rocky notorious for having a strong punch being able to go the distance with an injured Mason Dixon way more believeable than him beating a steriod-enhanced Ivan Drago who punched with almost twice the power of a normal heavyweight. But that’s just a technical argument. Besides that, excellent review. Glad someone got it right.

I agree fior the most part. I’d give it a B+ and I say it’s my second favorite behind the first Rocky. This movie has some of the charm of Rocky I that the others lacked
