This was definitely one of the year's best!!! I loved Rocky, and this gave me so much of that heart-pounding adrenaline that Rocky's fights gave me. Although Jim was no Rocky, Mae was no Adrian, and Joe was certainly no Mickey, they did one helluva job!!! This is definitely a must see! The fights were great, the crowds were always loud, whether cheering or booing. There were some really great shots, like when he came on for one of the fights, and it gives you a shot of what he's seeing when he ducks under the ropes. You see everyone sideways, because he's ducking etc... Renee did a wonderful job. She's a truly gifted actress, and although there wasn't that much actual acting in this one, she still did what she was supposed to do, and she did it wonderfully. Loved Russell's accent!!
