Disappointed viewer!

Rating: 4/10 (22 April 2001)

When i first saw this film at the cinema, i was blown away with how thought provoking it was. I went to see this movie just expecting a dumb brained film about bare knuckle fighting, but was amazed how much more it was. I then watched it again and again. But the more i watch this the worst it gets. It really is just a macho movie, which quotes great lines from the book. Do yourself a favour and read the book instead, which is great, and then just watch any Rocky movie (its more fun) instead.
