DVD Reviews of Rocky Balboa

DVD Review: Love it!
Summary: 5 Stars

Great movie - inspiring and a fitting ending to the Rocky series. Look for the movie as part of the collector's set - might save you a few $$.

DVD Review: Rocky Balboa - The Final Chapter
Summary: 5 Stars

This movie is by far a better way to end the classic boxing franchise and a welcome return to form as well.

It's not the best in the series, it's entertaining and well acted however unlike some of the other Rocky movie (1,2+3) this one doesn't have, in my opinion, a bad guy whom you really want Rocky to beat. Apollo Creed was cocky but a good bad guy and Mr. T was just fantastic, great attitude, memorable quotes and believable character. In this one Mason 'The Line' Dixon is arrogant but I don't think to the point of abnoxiousness. Not enough of an error to take this film down a star or two.

Great ending, even though Rocky lost his final fight in a metaphorical way he kinda won. Think about it, Rocky will always be a winner to all of us.
















DVD Review: Rocky is Back!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

I loved it. I waited six or seven years for this Rocky masterpiece to come out, and it was all worth it. I love when they play the original theme during his training and running up the stairs with Punchie. (His dog.) I loved all the Adrian and Mickey flashbacks. I also loved the fight toward the end with Rocky and Mason, showing that Rocky could still go toe-to-toe, so people who want him to win, you might be disappointed, but hard-core fans who love Rocky and see that he still has it, you'll love it. Also, I thought the fight was too short, but it was still great. I highly recommend ROCKY BALBOA!!!

I couldn't find this DVD in the store - it was shipped fast through mail and was an appreciated gift to my son-in-law

DVD Review: Good message, safe to watch
Summary: 5 Stars

Rocky Balboa is a good movie with a good message and is safe to watch (free of nudity and sex scenes, plus violence is reduced to the sport)

Description of Rocky Balboa

When he loses a highly publicized virtual boxing match to ex-champ Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone), reigning heavyweight titleholder Mason Dixon (Antonio Tarver) retaliates by challenging the Italian Stallion to a nationally televised, 10-round exhibition bout. To the surprise of his son (Milo Ventimiglia, TV's Heroes?) and friends, Rocky agrees to come out of retirement and face an opponent who's faster, stronger and thirty years his junior. With the odds stacked firmly against him, Rocky takes on Dixon in what will become the greatest fight in boxing history, a hard-hitting, action-packed battle of the ages!

The sixth installment of the Rocky series picks up the story of the Italian Stallion 16 years after the morose Rocky V. And sure, at his advanced age, Sylvester Stallone now looks like one of those sides of beef his character used to pound on. No matter. Somehow you buy the premise after all these years, even if it takes forever for Rocky Balboa to stop wallowing in self-pity (Adrian is dead, his old haunts are demolished) and get down to the business of drinking raw eggs and running up staircases. The business at hand is an unlikely exhibition fight with champion Mason Dixon (Antonio Tarver), which the near-sexagenarian Mr. Balboa has no business accepting. Of course, just as sure as the horns of Bill Conti's theme music are even now trumpeting through your head, the ol' Rock might have a punch or two left in him. Stallone wrote and directed, and there isn't much to say except that the movie steps in its pre-determined paces with a canny sense of what has come before (it's practically an homage to all the previous Rocky pictures, complete with fleeting flashbacks). Burt Young is around again, and Geraldine Hughes makes an appealing, rather chaste female companion for Rocky. Stallone's Rocky has gotten suspiciously articulate over the years, but he still knows how to slouch. If Stallone never forgets that, he can probably keep the franchise rolling. --Robert Horton
