not amazing, but the quality you expect

Rating: 7/10 (7 December 2015)

although this film is not a patch on the gold old days of rocky ii, this is still a great watch for any fan of reviving 80's classics.
a large chunk of this film is dedicated to the almost gimmick of 'rocky', and i hate to say that it just gets boring after a while.
although it does get a bit dated - the constant presence of 'rocky'.. i did enjoy the overall plot of the film and its contents - however i believe i set my expectations a little too high over this highly anticipated sequel to the film series that captured so many hearts many years ago.
overall, although my rants are present, i did enjoy the film, and i think it will be well received by others. well done Sylvester, a good effort.
