Worth watching over!

Rating: 9/10 (11 August 2012)

When I was at the video store with my friend we couldn't find anything in new releases to watch. When she came around the corner with rocky, I thought she was joking! We rented it anyways and we put it in, I, figuring it was going to be a snore.
Boy was I wrong. 2 things: this film is ingenious, and this film is emotional. I was so surprised with how much this movie made me feel for these characters. It maybe fronted as a sports movie (and I generally hate sports movies). But this movie is the original underdog "you can do it!" uplifting movies. Its so worth watching it again! The characters were just so well developed and the relationships between them just seemed so real. This movies keeps you interested until the very end. Then you're on to Rocky 2, 3 and etc! I loved every bit of this movie and now realize that its timeless and relatable.
Give it a watch! You won't regret it!
