Rocky IV: Easily the most overrated movie in the history of THE WORLD by MILES

[Another Man]

 

[3Rivers]

Gizzle, you my breh...but

Part I will always be my favorite but IV was in it's own right

I thought IV's training montage/hearts on fire> III's. Apollo's/Rocky's embrace in the ocean was a little too


"I must break you"

"If he dies...he dies"

Without IV there is no

 

[TheGreatShowtime]

Rocky IV was the catalyst for ending the Cold War

 

[3Rivers]

"YOU SEE?! YOU SEE!? HE'S NOT A MACHINE, HE'S A MAN!"

"DON'T GO DOWN! DON'T GO DOWN!"

"THROW THE DAMN TOWEL!"

"HE'S CUT! HE'S CUT!"

"YOU HURT HIM! YOU HURT HIM! YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSS!"

"No pain, No pain, No pain"

 

[DosCadenaz]

[WhyYouCry]

Your just mad that this happened

 

[Notorious 1 E.Y.E.]

Rocky is not a drama. Its a science Fiction

here's no way Rocky should have been able to beat Appolo, Clubber Lang or Drago.

theres no way he would of been able to fight again after the events of the first movie
but still
1 is the best then 3 then 2 then 4 then 6

 

[VladTheImpaler]

forgive the purposefully cliche hyperbolic thread title but damn brehs, Rocky IV was crazy overrated and is almost as bad as V.


First of all what, single thing about this movie is "Best" of the series?

The fighting? NO. Rocky II.
The villian? NO. Rocky III.
The training montage? NO. Rocky III.
The 'internal struggle' early montage? NO. Rocky III.
The outside of the ring personal storyline? NO. Rocky I.
The writing and uniqueness of the story? NO. Rocky I or V.

Most people like IV because of drago, but CREED and LANG are lightyears better heels, and the boxing scenes are more entertaining in II especially (spare me the movie boxing stuff, boxing purists). Drago has 1 good line in the entire MOVIE. I can quote almost everything lang said in III. Hell, fake don king in V was more entertaining.

'Hearts on fire' training montage is the most overrated thing in history...it was beyond corny both the song and the training...I can't even watch that scene anymore...you dare compare that to eye of the tiger? To the OG training montage running through philly???? Rocky Balboa's training montage featuring old man Balboa was better.

I really can't stand rocky iv in retrospect...the CHEESY ending, the canned 'americans vs. russians' storyline...straight out of 1981 WWF...it was really rehashed. The only redeemable value of the movie was that it produced this:







Rocky IV.....D+

 

[Ninjaz In Paris]

Rocky IV is dope!

 

[LauderdaleBoss]

I love all the Rocky movies cuz they each touched on a different aspect of boxing.

1. You got the underdog losing controversial,
2. then avenging that defeat,
3. gets to the top and becomes big headed losing to another hungry up and comer, takes it back to the roots to regain form,
4, avenges his friends death by going overseas to fight a PED monster,
5. loses everything, moves back in the hood, assumes the trainer role for a young gun only to sonn him and show him who's the real people's champ.
6. old fighter coming out of retirement for one last payday to fight the top dude.

Most of that shyt happens in boxing

Rocky 4 was ahead of it's time when you think about it, now that the heavyweight division if full of giant nikkas from Russia, Germany, etc...fukk we need a Rocky nikka right now.
