Good sequel to a very good movie

Rating: 7/10 (4 March 2006)

The first Rocky was great. But you've got to give credit to Sylvester Stallone, the sequel, while not as good, is still pretty entertaining. This one picks up where the first one left us. With a little help from his lady, he's not out of the ring for long. And soon enough, he's taking on the champion. Rocky is some kind of a dim-wit with a big heart. You gotta love him. There is some strange scenes, like the one where hundreds of kids are surrounding our hero while he's having his morning jog. But for the most part, a very entertaining sequel. Can't wait to see Rocky III again.
