I went to see Rocky Balboa last night. It was totally awesome. I loved everything about the film. Sylvester Stallone has done a great job and really put himself back on the map.
In a way I hope it’s the last film he makes, because it is a fitting end to his career. I know he’s no Robert DeNiro, but the guy deserves some credit for the Rocky series and some of the mindless action films he’s done. It would be a shame if he follows this up with more of the straight-to-video rubbish he’s done over the last few years.
He’s managed to get himself into great shape for the film. It’s obvious he’s no spring chicken, but any 60 year old with abs has got my respect!
If you like the Rocky films, get your ass to the cinema. It’s great!
Cheers

I really want to see this film, though it will probably be out on DVD in a month or two.
Is it really that good though? I thought the previous Rocky fight sequences have been a bit open, where Stallone keeps his guard completely open/down and any one could get in and get a punch through.
So I just hope the boxing is a bit more realistic this time.

It has all the same flaws as the previous films, but I don’t mind that. I think it’s cool!
