the perfect movie

Rating: 10/10 (17 February 2006)

This is one of the most inspirational and motivational movies that has ever been produced. Anybody can relate to it, because everybody has something in their life that seems impossible. "Rocky" epitomizes the ever-lasting American Dream that has permeated throughout all facets of American culture and history, and the character, Rocky, is the embodiment of the everyday, unlikely American hero who randomly gets a chance to become great. But he doesn't stop there. He doesn't bask in the limelight of his new found freak stardom. Instead he works hard and takes full advantage of that chance to become great and to prove himself, most importantly, to himself. "Rocky" shows us that real heroes are already out their. They're just waiting for their opportunity to shine.
