À propos de ce film

Rocky Balboa is forced to retire after having permanent damage inflicted on him in the ring by the Russian boxer Ivan Drago. Returning home after the Drago bout, Balboa discovers that the fortune that he had acquired as heavyweight champ has been stolen and lost on the stockmarket by his accountant. His boxing days over, Rocky begins to coach an up-and-coming fighter named Tommy Gunn. Rocky cannot compete, however, with the high salaraies and glittering prizes being offered to Gunn by other managers in town.

Notes et avis

Personally, my least favourite in the franchise but a necessary notch in the belt. This chapter had to be told, outside the ring. Sure it abandoned the saga's regular structure, but it raised some important questions about privilege, family and respect and did it so maturely.

I've seen every Rocky movie and this one is the worst out of all of them! Don't waste your time on this one! If I ever purchase the Rocky franchise on Blu-ray, I will throw this one away and pretend that it doesn't exist!

Out of all the Rocky films, this is the one that felt like it tried and make it fun but failed to entertain. Although this movie has great fight scenes. The other is eehhhh.
