Bouncing Back From A Setback

Rating: 8/10 (7 October 2017)

Sylvester Stallone stars and directs in the third installment of the Rocky franchise in "Rocky III".
The third Rocky movie deals with the resurrection of Rocky Balboa from a defeat as well as losing a boxing title to the obnoxious Clubber Lang,portrayed by Mr.T. Added to that,we also get to see how his relationship with former opponent Apollo Creed,portrayed by Carl Weathers, has evolved especially after Rocky's former trainer,Mickey - portrayed by Burgess Meredith - has died.Talia Shire and Burt Young complete the major cast of the movie.
While it is evident that the third Rocky isn't as good as the first film which has become a classic,it still remains fun as well as entertaining and inspiring especially when it tackles how one must bounce back from a setback and defeat in life.This was shown when Rocky was knocked out and how he trained hard for the rematch to regain the title that he lost.Also,we get to see how Rocky regained his passion for boxing after he lost it when he became rich and famous after beating Apollo Creed in the second film "Rocky II".Viewers will definitely be inspired to also bounce back in life and to never lose one's passion in spite of the successes one experience in life.
