   "Yo Adrian! We did it!" Stallone nailed it! This is a beautiful film that truly measures the importance of an aging life and how one copes with losing a loved one and being the "has-been". This film wanders into sweet nostalgia and stays there the whole time, all the while lingering on heartbreak, redemption, and inner peace.… Expand

   I was somewhat disappointed because much of this movie felt really forced. The heavyweight champs in the other movies were very believable, this champ looks like middleweight. 60 year old Rocky had a bigger build than this Kevin Garnet look-alike. It's a shame that Stallone didn't use a real heavywight, because that would have made the final scene more realistic. Many of the other actors did not fit either, and some of the scenes were just too unrealistic [**SPOILER***] Rocky's son quiting his job after his Rocky's speech to watch his dad train . And do you expect us to believe that Rocky, after all these years, has no one else to bring to Vegas than "little" Marie and her son. I wouldn't expect Rocky to have to bribe people into becoming his friends. I really wanted to like this film, and the final scene made me forget some of the flaws, but as another reviewer said, it felt like it was written by a college kid.… Expand

   I was extremely disappointed after watching this movie. I have watched the older Rocky films at least 4 or 5 times each, and this movie seemed really forced. It just doesn't work. There is absolutely NO boxing or training or action until the last 30 minutes of the movie. Also, the fighter who opposes Rocky has absolutely no personality, unlike Apollo Creed, Ivan Drago, or Clubber Lang. I honestly had a bad feeling in my stomach 5 days after watching this movie. Stallone tries to mimic himself from 20 years ago, but it just doesn't work. I advise fans of the Rocky series to avoid this movie at all costs, because this has completely ruined Rocky for me. Personally, I trusted the reviews and was severely disappointed, so I advise anyone planning to see this movie to avoid it, unless you like slow, sentimental movies instead of boxing.… Expand
