Stallone's best movie and the best Rocky in the series

Rating: 8/10 (30 June 2007)

Rated PG for Violence and Some Language.
Rocky is a great movie.It was Sylvester Stallone's first "big" movie and also his best.It won best picture of 1976 and Stallone was nominated for Best Actor.The film spawned 5 sequels.The most recent was Rocky Balboa which was released last year.Rocky 3 and 4 were more like action films unlike the other Rockies which were drama.This film has everything,A good storyline,Stallone's best acting job,romance etc.The film is about a poor amateur boxer named Rocky Balboa who one day gets the chance to "go the distance" with the champion "Apollo Creed".So the movie shows "Rocky" getting ready for the fight while falling in love with his friend's sister Adrian and facing other problems.Some might find the first Rocky film boring but I think it is the best film in the series! A great movie.
