A real story of heart, bravery and strength. The best guy movie ever made.

Rating: 10/10 (25 April 2006)

Rocky is the best movie that Stallone ever made. He wrote the movie and then he never looked back. Rocky was a bad boxer who never even was given the chance to be a has been. Then, due to the cancellation of a fight, Rocky gets a chance to fight the champion. Apollo Creed, brilliantly played by Carl Weathers, says that Rocky stands no chance and that it should be a walk in the park. Stallone trains hard awhile Creed blows the fight off. Then in the fight, Rocky comes very close to pulling of the upset. He looses the fight by decision. This is a very good movie with a solid love story, as well as good fight scenes. Don't be deterred by the fact that it has 4 bad sequels, because Rocky 1 is a brilliant picture.
