Rocky IV By Tom Keogh
It was time for Sylvester Stallone to say
"enough, already" to the boxing hero he plays in the popular
Rocky film series, but instead Stallone kept the saga going by pushing
Rocky into Rambo territory. The 1985 Rocky IV finds the Italian
stallion pitted against a seemingly unbeatable Russian monster named Drago
(Dolph Lundgren) who lets his wife (Stallone's then-wife, Brigitte
Nielsen) do all the talking. With a mighty punch, Drago has sent Rocky's
former opponent and trainer Apollo Creed to an early grave, and the boxer
responds with the ultimate challenge. Even the Russians are rooting for
Rocky, so it's not hard to guess how the film ends. Despite Stallone's
claims to the contrary, this installment was followed by Rocky V in
1990.

"I think that all 5 Rocky films encourage people to take up boxing, keep fit and not to give up, always have time for your family even if you think you are helping someone. personly I very much engoyed them, I watched all 5 in 1 day and was jumping around and did not get board of them at all.i think it would be a great idea to bring a 6th film out." --splodger |
