A Classic.

Rating: 7/10 (2 January 2019)

Rocky III, aka, Mr. T party. I love the Rocky series and I truly believe that Sylvester Stallone gets overlooked as an actor because of some of the cheesy (b) movies he did as an actor, but in this series, he really gets the opportunity to show his acting chops. This one definitely doesn't have the same vigor or gusto as the previous two, but his foe is definitely more formidable. They made more of the emphasis on fighting in this one, which I do think almost tarnishes the story arc built so well from the previous films. This movies shining moment though is when Rocky and Adrian are standing on the beach and Rocky breaks down to Adrian that he's afraid. Truly a powerful moment in an otherwise overly macho movie. Would/Will watch again.
