Funny and just a fun ride. A movie you can put in and just have fun with, that is what entertainment is all about.

"Look at us, we're not dead. Everybody is laughing at us, the whole world is laughing at us but we're not dead. We're not dead, in fact this whole thing has made me feel more alive then ever." 30 years ago the third and decisive fight between Henry "Razor" Sharp (Stallone) and Billy "The Kid" McDonnen (De Niro) was surprisingly canceled after Razor suddenly retired. The Kid has never gotten over it and the two still have bitter hatred toward each other. When Razor needs a way to make money he agrees to film himself for a video game. When Kid shows up early old wounds come up and the two go after each other. A promoter sees an opening and the third fight is finally scheduled. I watch so many movies whether I want to or not that it's hard to get super excited about watching most movies now. This is an exception. I was really looking forward to seeing this one. I thought the idea was OK but the casting was great. Finally the question will be answered who is a better fighter Rocky or Jake "Raging Bull" La Motta? While I can't say this is a great movie or one I would watch over and over it was very fun and enjoyable to watch. There were a few in-jokes about those two movies which made it that much funnier. I do recommend this and even though I had high expectations going in I wasn't disappointed at all. Overall, funny and just a fun ride. A movie you can put in and just have fun with, that is what entertainment is all about. I give this a B+.
