The "Italian Stallion" rediscovers his roots in this exciting, thrill-packed drama that reunites Sylvester Stallone with the Oscar(r)-winning* director of the original Rocky(r). Upon returning home from his latest triumph, Rocky Balboa (Stallone) learns that all his money has been lost by an unscrupulous financial advisor. To make matters worse, his fight-relatedinjuries force his retirement from the ring. So Rocky, his wife, Adrian (Talia Shire), and his son,Rocky Jr. (Sage Stallone), move to their old, low-rent neighborhood in South Philadelphia. There, the fighter must resolve the deep-rooted resentment held by his son, a bitterness that grows when Rocky trains Tommy Gunn (Tommy Morrison), a young boxer who soon rises to national prominence. When Tommy turns against his mentor and publicly taunts him, Rocky knows he must fight once more. *John G. Avildsen, 1976
Viewer Reviews
Where as"Rocky"was"The Ultimate Feel Good Movie",this is"The Ultimate Feel Bad Movie".How depressing,Rocky looses everything,and is forced to go back to slums.Excuse me,but what happened to attaining the American dream.That was what was so great about Rocky,was that he attained success.Now Rocky is A pennyless bum again,c'mon!And to be quite truthfully Rocky got stale years ago,so avoid this movie like the plague.The,hopefully,last chapter"Rocky Balboa",at least let The character have some dignity.As far as I'm considered this film never existed."Rocky Balboa"is in my book"Rocky 5".Terrible chapter in the Rocky Saga.
