what a perfect movie looks like

Rating: 10/10 (13 October 2012)

to be honest 8.1 is incredibly too low for this movie. this is what excellent filmmaking all across the board looks like. it had fantastic performances from everyone (sylvester Stallone Talia shire and burgess Meredith especially) some of the most heart wrenching and emotionally gripping writing ever. and easily one of the greatest and most remembered and celebrated musical scores of all time. we open on rocky whom is already at the tail-end of his career (albeit the following movies)and every scene you see him in you keep seeing the passion in his eyes. the passion for becoming a great fighter but also the passion for earning the love of Adrian. and this is where the movie adds a whole nother dimension is the love story in the movie. its very believable and not the least bit touched up by Hollywood standards. the movie is an absolute triumph there's no other way of saying it. this is my favorite movie of all time and i recommend it to every person who just loves a movie that will make you feel inspired
