Rocky Balboa plot
"It ain't over 'til it's over."
Rocky Balboa, one of the greatest boxing champions in history, hasn't boxed in years, The Italian Stallion, who was known for his steel jaw and willpower to win. His wife Adrian has since passed away and he and his son have grown apart. Rocky lives on the streets of Philadelphia again where he runs a restaurant. When ESPN shows a virtual match between him and current World Champion, Mason Dixon, and is ridiculed on TV, Rocky begins to think. Finally, he is persuaded by Dixon's manager to enter the ring one more time...

“Yo, Adrian, we did it... We did it.”
The intervening years have clearly provided new inspiration to the makers and Stallone himself. This sixth installment is well put together and Stallone looks admirably fit it. Due to Adrian's death Rocky also has to pick himself up again, and that clearly provides new inspiration to the writers.
The bond with his son is also well developed and Stallone and Ventimiglia have good chemistry. Young is also there again and that is always an added value. I only found Tarver a bit less as a boxer who eventually takes on Rocky. But Rocky and Stallone are certainly not worn out yet, although this is Rocky's farewell in the boxing ring. A dignified farewell.

Fortunately Rocky V was not the end of the beautiful series, this film is much better. I see Creed as just another series with Rocky as a character.

Always nice to see a Rocky movie again, but you should not take this part seriously, it is totally ridiculous that a 60 year old (blind in 1 eye and with a brain damage if I remember correctly) can play a game world champion at the top of his game... come on Sly, that's going too far.... too bad...
