An inspiring story of a true underdog,

Rating: 9/10 (26 July 2013)

"Rocky," is the compelling story of a down and out Philadelphia boxer named Rocky Balboa, who gets a shot at fighting against the world heavyweight champion Apollo Creed. "Rocky," has always been an appealing movie to me ever since I was young. There's just something about underdog stories that makes people cheer and root for them. "Rocky," is no different, you could easily compare it to a David and Goliath type of situation. The movie is very inspiring if I must say. Sylvester Stallone does a great job encapturing the spirit of Rocky Balboa. But this movie is not just about a championship fight, its also about Rocky attempting to strengthen a new relationship while attempting to cope with the nerves and worries of his soon to be championship fight. Overall I love and always have loved "Rocky," and with that being said, it is definitely a must see for everyone.
