80's nostalgia

Rating: 7/10 (7 April 2018)

Rocky 4 is one of those films that is over he top and so engrossed in the 80's that despite it not being the best it is almost a good film. This is due to the comedy element included with Pauline and the robot of course. However Stallone clearly lost it after the original film and has made this almost a parody of the original film. I believe that this film is great for a 10 year old who will believe in a boxing match ending the Cold War (like I did when I was younger) However it clearly does not have the same character depth and plot that makes it a compelling and serious story.
