This is one of a kind. I have never saw a movie so realistic in my entire life. It's not stylish, not cute, not even close of being extravagant.It's just one of those incredibly real films, based on the life of Rocky Balboa, a man who found the strenght to fight for a shot, any boxer will kill for, the heavyweight title of the world.
This film isn't all about boxing, in fact only last third really shows box, in the actual sense of the word. It's about the world we live in, a world in which today you are notorious and tomorrow nobody knows who you are. Well Rocky Balboa remained the same, a sincere, maybe not so clever, funny guy, who fought for acclamation and became the Philadelphia dream.
We are all looking, in a way or the other, for that one chance which may, or may not change our life, depending on how much, and how hard we can fight to keep it alive. Rocky did just that, he had nothing to lose and everything to gain. It may seem like an easy decision, but I guess there's no pleasure in meeting the heavyweight champion in a 15 round of boxing, match.
I will always respect Sylvester Stallon for giving life to this amazing film. He was the first one to say: Hey what if we do this? and for that we deserves all the praise. I think he did a pretty good job as Rocky Balboa, actually the whole cast did a great job, nothing to criticize here.
Moreover the sound was absolutely awesome, it gives you an unique sensation, can't leave you indifferent.It suggested to me the same passion, and desire the film brought up so successful.
With all being said, i repeat myself, I liked this title so much because it is exactly what I was looking for, a getaway from all those ordinary criminal films, a film which shows us the real value of self respect and desire, in a way which deserves all credits.That is why I rate this title a ****1/2 out of *****
