4 out of 5 stars

Rating: Null/10 (8 June 2000)

Rocky V goes back to the basics of the Rocky Franchise.
I enjoyed this film better than Rocky 3 and Rocky 4 , Having our champ come back to Philly where it all began was a treat , Sylvester Stallone again reprises his role as ROCKY , also returning are Talia Shire and Burt Young as Adrian and Paulie , also returning are Tony Burton and a special appearance by Burgess Meredith as Mickey , which I thought was the highlight of the film , Tommy Morrison makes his movie debut as Tommy Gunn a local boxer who Rocky takes under his wing .
There has been talks recently with Sly Stallone to once again don the gloves for ROCKY VI , and something tells me that will happen ( it may help Sly's career ) .
Make sure to pay special attention to the closing credits where you will see a video retro of the entire Rocky series , A must see for all Rocky Fans.
