Perfection

Rating: 10/10 (16 July 2013)

My favorite movie. I was 13 when my dad took me to see it. I walked of the theater throwing punches in the air. It may not be perfect, but to me it's as good as it gets. This is what movies are all about. I don't understand how anyone cannot feel compassion. For these characters. Stallone was at the top of his game here and never came close to it again. He also wrote a brilliant script.
If some critics want to pick at it, who cares. Every line, every scene, every punch thrown hits the target. Watch it again and pay attention to the scenes as they unfold and marvel at the script and direction. It's a beautiful work of art.
