an excellent story of a true underdog getting back on top

Rating: 10/10 (9 November 2010)

Rocky is one of my all time favourite series of films and Rocky three, in my opinion is the best one ever. It gives the fans the chance to see that people can fall from grace, but can get themselves back on top and achieve there biggest goals. This is a message for all audiences i think. Its not about how hard you fall; we all saw Rocky hit the mat in round three. Its s about how determined your are to get back up. Rocky sets out to show true reality in many ways. The film shows us raw emotions through its characters and true love which helps Rocky get back on his feet. Its also proves that our enemies can become our true friends.
The best part of the film for me is the transition of Rocky. He goes from being on top of the world, with the heavyweight title around his waist, to getting beaten and being looked on as passed it and old, to once again proving he is the best and defeating the mighty Clubber Lang. For me Rocky gives me motivation. It teaches me that anything is possible, you just need to put your mind to it.
