One of the most underrated movies

Rating: 9/10 (4 September 2018)

"Rocky" is a very worthy movie that ends up moving thanks to a very well achieved climax and the great description of the characters. Sometimes I think that this movie has been devalued over time because the script is by Sylvester Stallone. It is true that his interpretation is not any wonder, but the script of this film is one of the best I've seen. With a beautiful love story between two shy characters and a not-so-high self-esteem of course, far from Hollywood's glamorous love relationships and the underlying theme of success and failure in life, we find ourselves with a very well built, it hurts whoever hurts.
If this is signed by another director and the script was signed by another person, the media of IMDb would shoot up like the foam, because I'm sick of having seen movies with scripts and very mediocre stories with averages superior to this excellent film, only endorsed by the name of the one who signed them. But in the end, all that matters, the really important thing is that we can always get excited again and again with the great performance of the fight between Apollo and the "Italian Stallion". Whatever they say, their three Oscars are well deserved, missing in my opinion, a deserved Oscar for best script for Sylvester Stallone and another for the best soundtrack.
Wonderful and exciting final climax with Apollo celebrating the background victory and Rocky looking for his beloved Adrian. Beautiful.
