Hey Yo Adrian!

Rating: 10/10 (4 April 2019)

My dad showed this movie to me and my brothers when we were little and I remember them walking around saying "hey yo Adrian!" for days. My older brother even made me a birthday card with a stick figure wearing boxing gloves and ice skates that said "Hey Yo Lydia, Happy Birthday". It didn't have the same effet on me, however, I quickly forgot about it. I was just too young understand it. My brothers were too. They just liked it because they thought Rocky talked funny. Watching Rocky now that I'm older I see that it is so much more than a boxing movie about a guy who talks kind of funny. It is a movie with heart. It is a movie about determination and strength. Strength of spirt more than of body, although Rocky can really throw a punch (and take one as well) and that training montage will forever be awesome. Rocky is one of the most endearing characters ever in my opinion. He is someone who you just can't help but root for (just watch Rocky IV). But he isn't without his flaws either, he is a real person and that just adds to the likeabillity of the character. He seems like someone you would know. And the love story between him and Adrian will forever be one of my all time favorite love stories. It is just so sweet and it adds depth to Rocky's character.I honestly can't even fully express how much I love this movie and character.
Just go watch it OK! you won't regret it!
