Can't believe how cliche it was

Rating: 4/10 (6 April 2019)

To sound like a teenager: OMG! It was comedic how cliche it was. From 5min into the movie I could say what would happen next. All the talk and faces filled with pain or mischief was just boring the heck out of me.
I felt more for the Drago character and all the harsh stuff he goes through and it seemed that it could have been a better movie had the movie ended with Drago winning - then I would watch the next.
All the hardcore behavior of our main character and Rocky seemed forced and out of balance with how movies and real life is today. I felt the movie tried to be 1980 in a 2018 setting. Awkward. I seriously laughed so many times that my girlfriend thought I was watching a comedy. There are countless scenes that are so forced that I is just too much that I had to laugh at how poorly written and directed it was.
I love 1980 films by the way but not when it's supposed to be in the present with so many unnatural behavior / overacting from our main characters.
I am sad that I was so disappointed - I really wanted to like it. It was too "look a me I am so tough like a real man" and then it justed forced. Made them look weak and as predictable as a punching bag.
