I'm surprised to see this is getting good reviews. Myself and everyone else rolled their eyes at the mention of the film, but every review seems to be saying "who would have thought that this is a good film?" I love the original Rocky, a great low-budget 70's classic, but the sequels were all pretty crappy, even if they are enjoyable in a sort of guilty pleasure kind of way. I was willing to see this film just to laugh at the ridiculousness of it, but i am hoping it will at least honour the heart of the original film, which apparently it manages to do. I'm sure this is not a great film but the general consensus seems to be that it is a good one. I'll be seeing it soon, if only out of curiosity. Unlike say Indiana Jones IV, this film never had much of a legacy to live up to since the series had basically been run into the ground since 1978.
