Rocky

‘Rocky’ is plain, simple and to some extent realistic movie with superb performance from Sylvester Stallone and Talia Shire. Movie is not a fast paced story but crawls at a pace fast enough to keep the viewers interested. Climax with Rocky’s fight with Apollo is the high point of the movie. Rocky looses the fight at last but wins heart of everyone. Movie is mostly about two lonely losers reaching out to each other.The owner of the movie is Sylvester Stallone and definitely the whole movie belongs to him.

Rocky is a sweet mix of romance, sport and melodrama. The final fight is surely grand, detailed, interesting and dramatic. The training sequences are also inspirational. The awkward first date at the ice ring after Adrian’s brother tosses the Thanksgiving turkey out of the window is very real and touching. Rocky was a very realistic character and so was the movie. There is nothing in the movie except the last fighting sequence which will genuinely raise your adrenaline, but the whole package is interesting and inspirational. I like ‘Yo’ accent of Rocky very much.
