as I child, I grew up idolizing Rocky... i admired his strong will and courage. somehow I always root for the underdogs.
i was really glad when talks of a new rocky movie went abuzz. i watched it the moment it hit theaters... and i was not disappointed. rocky is as wonderful as ever. the movie showed his insecurities and inner longings to prove something to the world specially himself that he is still the man he was before. inspite of everything, he still has the heart of a champion.
this movie also showed the human side of rocky... his daily struggles, his strained relationship with his son, how he missed his departed wife... it showed that even how famous and great a person is it still boils down to one thing: his humanity.. he is only human with humanly needs for love, security and understanding. Go Rocky!

Well Rocky Balboa was not good as the previous Rocky films but it still was a good one to watch, I like the last fight it was a good one.
Sylvester Stallone did what he did well in this movie ...

Rocky was loosely inspired by the football star guy who's life story was told in the movie INVINCIBLE(which is a movie I did not like)...but anyway their special features on that Disney football film make that claim.

I have not seen this new Rocky movie as of yet but I definitely want to see it. I am glad that you liked it as I loved all of his previous Rocky movies. I think this is definitely his last Rocky movie so hopefully I can catch it before it leaves the theatres. It sounds very entertaining. Thank you for giving us some information about his latest movie. Go Rocky!

Yeah the fight scene was were all the action was. It was nicely made. Although, i dont remember much of the previous rocky films anymore, i thought all of it were supposed to be action packed. That's why i was surprised it has a little drama side to it. But I stl liked the movie and a good retirement for Rocky!

I loved rocky balboa. It was deffintley one of my favorite rocky movies deffintley had one of the better storylines. I am a big fan of the rocky movies infact im watching rocky 5 now since I wanted to watch all off the rocky movies and tomorow I will be watching rocky balboa. But I find it funny how a lot of people made fun of this movie before it came out now everyone loves it.
