Rocky — Boxing with a lot of heart and guts but little technique — 7*/10

  • Scenario: It has a few cheesy moments, especially in the beginning, but slowly you see the heart and soul of the characters appear and you get to really feel the movie. Great ambiance and well portrayed personas if sometimes a bit overdone in the secondary roles. There's little real boxing technique showed. Solid dialogs. Entertaining flick. A classic that shows its decrepitude while still sustaining the test of time and becoming a period piece.
  • Known actors: Sylvester Stallone, Carl Weathers and Burgess Meredith.
  • Visual & sound: The visual is mostly crappy, especially the stock footage, but it adds to the ambiance.
  • Synopsis & informationhttp://www.imdb.com/title/tt0075148/
  • Who is it for? Stallone fans and those who want to see his beginning.

I've got to give it to Stallone for writing this script. Great job.
