Revenge & Pride in Russia.

Rating: 8/10 (17 May 2010)

Rocky 4 stands out for me as the best of the movie from among all its prequels or sequels.It has the perfect depth of compelling human agony,the taste for revenge,some fantastic songs & triumph of the human heart over all odds.Sylvestor Stallone has done a terrific role here of Rocky again.His facial expressions & just his passion during his training in Russia just sets the tempo before the real fight.Direction by Stallone is exemplary.Just sets the mood for the audiences with some terrific songs like 'No easy way out' & 'Hearts on fire'.People start feeling that even they can be like Rocky in some other way & can take make their own choice.Brigitte Nielsen as Rocky's challenger has an imposing presence.Great act from him & rest of the support cast.This movie lives up-to its expectations.I wanted to give it whole 10 because this movie inspires me every time when i am down & out, but just to save myself from judging this movie by all heart i give it a 8.My heart wants to give it 10 but being a regular movie critic i think 8 is well deserved.Stallone with his revenge shall finally get pride in Russia.You shall see Russian people cheering for Rocky in their home.As for me i am here too cheering for Rocky 4,forever & for-always.
